Giant Lego Man washes up on Dutch beach
Quote:
A giant, smiling Lego man was fished out of the sea in the Dutch resort of Zandvoort on Tuesday.
Workers at a drinks stall rescued the 2.5-metre (8-foot) tall model with a yellow head and blue torso.
"We saw something bobbing about in the sea and we decided to take it out of the water," said a stall worker. "It was a life-sized Lego toy."

Re: Giant Lego Man washes up on Dutch beach
I, for one, welcome our new giant-sized Lego Man overlords.
Can't rightly call this one a minifig, so, a maxifig, then?

Lilliput?
I saw a different photo yesterday at the BBC site and couldn't believe it wasn't a photoshop.

Re: Giant Lego Man washes up on Dutch beach
Hmmm, it turns out our Lego friend was at Dance Valley (a techno festival) a month ago
It seems it's a statement from a group that wants people to get off the internet and get to know the 'real world'. The statement is that a legoman in the real world is just as ridiculous as a human in the virtual world.
Of course neither is ridiculous, it's cool

Re: Giant Lego Man washes up on Dutch beach
I'm sure there must be some way to link all these events together, in an orderly, geometric precision.
If these are indeed our new Lego Overlords come to conquer, we must fight them with the tried-and-true methodology: giant heat registers, gargantuan vacuums, and massive couches.

Re: Giant Lego Man washes up on Dutch beach
So somebody is killing giant Lego dudes and dumping their bodies in the ocean. What has the world come to? It's just sad.

We must fight, because verily, I am not looking forward to tripping over that big of a lego piece at 3 am.

Re: Giant Lego Man washes up on Dutch beach
I'm forced to dredge up this thread again as Lego Man is on the move again (and apparently journalists are too dumb/lazy/ignorant to figure out he's been spotted before):
Quote:
A huge Lego sculpture that mysteriously appeared this week on a Florida beach will remain in police custody for 90 days while investigators try to figure out who it belongs to, according to authorities.
The more than eight-foot-tall (2.5-meter) Lego Man weighing about 100 pounds (45 kilos) turned up on the sands of Siesta Key beach off Florida’s Gulf coast on Tuesday, but no one has claimed responsibility for putting it there.
...
A swimmer first reported the existence of the green, yellow and red sculpture, which says “No Real Than You Are” on the front, and “Ego Leonard” on the back.
