LEGO Half-Life

I’m not sure what the headcrab is. Is it a plastic turkey or something? Does LEGO actually make Half-Life sets?

A pretty cool stop motion video of all the best classic arcade games recreated with LEGO blocks. As I was watching this video, I couldn’t keep the song “Tom Sawyer” by Rush out of my head. Futurama’s fault.

LEGO Star Wars Father and Son

This is a heartwarming photograph of LEGO Luke Skywalker and LEGO Darth Vader, enjoying a father and son bike ride through the park.

LEGO Donkey KongThis LEGO Donkey Kong may look cute, but deep, deep down, you know he’s still a Princess stealing, barrel tossing, gorilla jerk. I think my favorite part of it is the grin on Donkey Kong’s face. He’s bad, he knows it, and he’ll mock the hell out of you with it.

If you haven’t seen them, check out LEGO recreations of Duck Hunt, Contra, and Excite Bike. I’d like to see a LEGO version of some of my favorite old games like Joust, The Legend of Zelda, and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: The Arcade Game. I haven’t seen LEGO Tetris yet, but I’m sure that one would be pretty easy.

Check out a larger picture of LEGO Donkey Kong below!

LEGO Movie PostersSo you’re probably wondering what could possibly make all those boring movie posters better. Well, stop wondering! Flickr Users like Craig Lyons and others have discovered the secret! No more will you have to look at plain posters with pale, fleshly real people, because LEGO people are much cooler.

I’m not sure what it is about LEGO creations, they always seem to catch my attention. If I see the word “LEGO” in a headline, I know it’s gong to be something awesome, and I’m usually right; except that one time I got Rick Roll’d by a LEGO Rick Astley.

These posters are definitely good, but nothing is cuter than LEGO WALL-E. Check out these LEGO movie posters below! I think my favorite is a tie between the I AM LEGEND and Jaws posters.

LEGO WALL-EYes, another LEGO masterpiece! You can never have enough LEGO, and you can especially never have enough WALL-E. The two combined, well, I don’t need to tell you how great it is, you can see for yourself.

Flickr user jmenomeno spent three weeks building this LEGO WALL-E. It’s neck is motorized, and can move up and down, and it’s arms are on ball joints allowing them to pose. Obviously not as cute and lovable as the real WALL-E, but close.

Now all he needs is a little LEGO cockroach companion.

Check out some photos of LEGO WALL-E below!

This is the trailer for LEGO Harry Potter: Years 1-4. Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Batman, and now Harry Potter. I’m not sure why they only did Years 1-4. They should have just done all 7 years with one go. I guess then they wouldn’t be able to release and sell two separate games.

Personally, I’ve never played any of the LEGO games. I won’t even touch the Harry Potter movie based games. I’m not saying the LEGO games are bad; it is actually kind of cool to see the Harry Potter characters in LEGO form. Just read the books though, that’s where the real goods are.

LEGO Star CruiserIt’s a trap! Thomas Benedikt has created Admiral Ackbar’s star cruiser from Star Wars: Return of the Jedi.

He used over 30,000 LEGO blocks, and took 11 months to build it. Not only that; he took it to a “hoe nuva level”. The ship even has LED lights throughout, giving it a realistic look against a starry backdrop. You can read all the specific build details here.

Check out some awesome pictures of the ship lit up, and in closer detail below…
