LoTR:LEGO Originals

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the time-on-hands-feet-and-everywhere dept.

kiddailey writes "What do you get when you combine standard Lego bricks with Lord of the Rings? A really cool version of Bag End that would make any LOTR and Lego geek as happy as Smeagol with a stomach full of fisheses. If only I could be so creative... or have so much spare time. Be sure to check out his whole gallery of cool lego builds."

  1. More cool Lego stuff by djn · · Score: 5, Interesting

    A few weeks ago I stumbled across this great site.
    Lego Bible stories! Even for non-religious types, the cool photography and often hilarious captions make for hours of entertainment.

    if you still liked playing with LEGOS and it was a computer case made out of legos by Paul Rea : "I then got the idea to make the entire case out of LEGOS. I had originally intended to make the drives on stilts of LEGOS but that did not work out as well as I had hoped. Over that first month I thought of several concepts and finally decided to build the case you now see in the attached photographs" - this won the mod contest organized by directron.com.

    Try here. Too bad HE hasn't built a LOTR set...although I figure some Slashdot reader has the money to commission such a project. Well...maybe not.

  4. Petition by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 0, Interesting

    We, undersigned, do hereby request of the Slashdot editors that a system to mirror any potentially 'fraigle' sites be implemented on Slashdot. The editors wield a mighty force when they post a story. This power can render some sites unaccesable to the majority of the readers of Slashdot. Not to leave out the owners of these targets of random DoS attacks.

    Please! Won't somebody think of the children!?

      It is pretty useless that when only 5 minutes after a story has been posted, none of the readers can see what the story is about.

      Maybe a slashdot.txt file like robots.txt could be used to request that slashdot does/doesn't cache the site before submission.

      Well, if I had gotten to the site in time, I would have mirrored it. Ho hum.

    This site appears to be getting Slashdotted, so I'm in the process of mirroring it: http://ragnar.nilmop.com/kenn/www.thereverend.com/ brick_testament/

  7. my lotr lego creations by obi-juan-kenobi · · Score: 2, Interesting

    hey, I've never been slash dotted before, I didn't even know this place existed! Anyways, just to clear up a few misperceptions, Lego does not make any type of tolkien related product. These are recombinations from existing parts from almost every Lego theme, from town to space to pirate etc. So the commercialisation of Tolkiens world does not include lego bricks (they are currently cramming harry potter down peoples throats!) Also, for those of you who feel that maybe this generation of fans is in someway inferior to those who grew up watching those abominable 1970's cartoon specials on TV, you are correct, I grew up watching those things, and boy can I say they built character! Something a casual movie watcher will be sorely lacking! If you are wondering about my loyalty to book over movie, you'll notice that there are almost more creations from The Two Towers (which will be released later this year)my favorite two books in the Novel! thanks for all of the web hits, and comments! - "Nerd of the Rings"
