You know we are regularly posting cool LEGO findings on the blog, from LEGO Angry Birds to Millenium Falcon made entirely of LEGOs. Today’s finding might be among the coolest things I have seen. A Kaws-Milo Dissected figure made entirely of LEGOs from Schneider Cheung. I mean the original figures are cool on their own but this piece… Words are barely enough to express this piece of work, so let the pictures do the talking. Impressive, most impressive as Darth Vader himself would put it.

More pictures after the jump.

Relationships always have their ups and downs but sometimes its the hobbies or interests of the other party that can really stir trouble in paradise. Of course it’s all about understanding but when the other party is obsessed enough with whatever his/her interest might be, it’s sure to cause a problem. One such issue could be collections. Whether it’s video games, action figures, jeans or T-shirts, everyone has their tolerance levels. One housewife just came to an end of her tolerance level with her husband’s action figure collection.

You might remember the awesome NBA figures/collectibles by MINDstyle and Coolrain? The other day I came across an awesome set of photos for the NBA Collector Series by these two toy/design houses. The figures themselves are just awesome, but when you combine great surrounding for the photoshoot you get something even better. At least the pictures made me smile.

LEGO and Star Wars mix well. I think that’s already obvious with number of successful LEGO Star Wars games and of course the LEGO Star Wars series. I myself have bought and built few of the pieces and I still have fond memories of building Boba Fett’s Slave I ship and countless other Star Wars ships with my brother back in the day. Now, LEGOLAND California is bringing in some heavy duty (and light) Star Wars inspired pieces such as huge Millenium Falcon built entirely of LEGOs. I think this part of LEGOLAND is something every Star Wars fan should visit, in case they’re wondering around at LEGOLAND. This again highlights why LEGO still inspires some really, really awesome creations. Awesome stuff.

There is no doubt that the greatest export product from Finland (after us) is the Angry Birds. Personally I don’t really get what the game is really all about, but then again I only tried the game once on my iPhone and that was it. I don’t have any other games on my phone for that matter. But many people love these angry, winged fiends and their pig dropping antics. Or whatever they might be called.

This one’s the random post of the week. Something I came across with at J.M.E. today and could not resist sharing with all y’all. We all know Japan is famous for a number of just to say interesting toys and collectibles, not to mention movie Monsters like Gojira. Well, when you combine these two elements you get something like the Japanese Kaiju Doll BECKOS and TSUNOGON. I have to admit I have not even heard of these two fellas before but find the below ad and video clips hilarious. It seems that the girl in the ad likes TSUNOGON but I am not sure if she’s horrified or happy to meet BECKOS, whom surely seems to have the hots for the girl. Hmm, maybe I need to get Maxwell a BECKOS for birthday later this year? You know, just to replace the usual Batman action figures and such. Not that he’s old enough for action figures yet anyways. Still Wayto go BECKOS and TSUNOGON!

Who doesn’t love LEGO? The endless source of inspiration that consists of numerous little blocks and pieces that together can form anything from castles to space ships and everything in between. Well what better way to visualize this than in a video dedicated to the creativity and inspiration LEGO is all about. Check it out.

One of the greatest things I came across the websphere today is the new toy/figure coming from UncleYork. UncleYork has already produced a figure of photographer Terry Richardson and continues the line of cult persons turned “action figures”, this time with Spike Lee. The toy pays homage to the movie director and his achievements in a toy form. Good look if you ask me.

We’ve had few posts featuring Lamborghinis and although it is a mere drea of any men to own one, but now you can actually make one yourself. So what’s the catch? We’re talking about a LEGO Lamborghini Gallardo here. But don’t let the toy status fool you. This baby is packed with details and LEGOisms sure to excite the kids and their fathers (and hey, maybe some mothers too). Maybe I should start stocking items like these for the time my son can actually build these. For ages 9-14, I’m sure it will be those much older than 14 that buy these and definitely kids of all ages whom will enjoy LEGO artistry in a form of a classic car. The timing couldn’t be any better either, with the holidays just behind the corner.

Collectible figures from movies such as Batman or Iron Man are usually cool already as they are, but it’s the more random figures like the Demon Batman that complete a great collection. Having a 1:6 Iron Man figure from hot toys is cool already, but what about hung-over Tony Stark in his Iron Man attire completed with not karate button but a box of donuts and stunner shades. Yes, a box of donuts.
