Lego

As a kid Lego almost rivaled my love of Playmobil. Dun Know the Playmobil! Perhaps I was an odd child, but Playmobil was sick, I used to mix up the sets and create my own gangster adventures. Take one cowboy set, bandanas, guns etc, mix it up with the motor cross bikes and 4X4, and you had arm robberies, gang wars and all sorts of craziness happening on the bedroom carpet. Enough of memory lane and the peculiar mind of a young Nick Lewis, check out how people are now fusing their love of Lego with art, fashion and music.

UK Clothing label Lyrics4Lyrics have created a large array of items, most notably this Spongebob pendant for Pharrell.

Photographer Balakov takes some really cool pictures, recreating famous images using Lego. They are pretty amazing. you can check him out on Flickr here and a couple of my favorite's below.



Check out The Black Ghosts video for 'Some Way Through This'. It's pretty impressive, I've always wondered how you would go about making a video like this.
