Kermit the Frog Interviews Pirate cast!

I really like Kermit! That's all I have to say.

Pirates of the Caribbrickean

Well friends! LEGO is moving forward on a new Pirate theme. Pirates of the Caribbean! That's right, there will be new Jack Sparrow minifigs as well as other characters from the movies. And in summer of 2011 there will be a new Travelers Tales PotC game too.

Be sure to check out MTV's gallery for the rest of the sets.

Triple Lego play today!

Greetings Lego fans! Sorry about the heavy Lego posts these days but that is a lot of what I'm paying attention to right now. And Lego is awesome. If you dislike it I kind of wonder if you happen to know where you've stumbled. You could be in for a very rude awakening.

My brother just sent me a picture of a Lego Terran Battle Cruiser (based on the Terrans from Starcraft) that is extraordinary! To be fair it was already my laptop Wallpaper but that doesn't keep it from being awesome. The funny part is that the detail work is far better than the 1997 game could have ever shown. Count yourself lucky that we all must think the Terrans are pretty good builders. Now if only they could get rid of their hick accents.


Also new is the announcement that Lego minifigs are going to be available in June at Lego stores near you! Yes, yes we are all aware that there are minifigs in the set that are lamer than the other ones but even with that consideration, for TLG it'll be like printing money. (I'll even accept clowns, divers, and Tan fedora guys if you get too many. We're always accepting Lego gifts!)

Finally the new videogame Lego Universe is coming along quite nicely. The promo seen here sets up many previously available Lego genres against a new dark force bent on disassembling the Lego universe! There will be places for builds and ways to upload your creations to the game. All based on the idea of collective cooperation. That's awesome! If only the nations of the world could get along as well as pirates, knights, race car drivers, and ninjas do in this game!

One day we may . . . one day.

Happy National Ninja Day!

It's National Ninja Day everyone! So celebrate wisely! Polish your shuriken, hone your untraceable poisons and heartily heft your katana of choice. Oh, and I guess you could make nice to the nearest pirate. I mean you certainly don't have to marry him or anything but they can at least celebrate National Ninja Day with you. Or you can destroy them by getting close to them and learning their weaknesses. Especially in a bratwurst eating contest! Either way, have a great day being a ninja!
