Lego Stephen Hawking


A pair of Lego skyscrapers (made from 250,000 pieces and inhabited by 1000 Lego people) are on display at the Storefront for Art and Architecture in NYC through November 24. Dennis Crowley's got some pictures and a short movie. Details include a wee Banksy piece on the side of the building and tiny iPod ads. Here's a timelapse video of the construction. (thx, dens)
Lego reproductions of some well-known photos.
Update: Another set from a different person, this time representing well-known paintings. (thx, derek)
This guy has made a three dimensional timeline of the plot of Fight Club out of Legos. Kinda hard to explain...just go take a look. (thx, christopher)
What the hell? Almost 500 pounds of Legos up for auction on eBay. "This is my collection for the past 25 years, it's time to go." Bid stands at ~$6800. (thx, karl)
