Metal Gear Solid's Rex & Ray in Lego Blocks

Posted by michael on from the attention-universe:-I-have-too-much-time-on-my-hands dept.

IllogicalStudent writes "Justin "Saber-Scorpion" Stebbins has created lego models based on themes from Metal Gear: Solid, Metal Gear: Solid 2, Star Wars, Halo, Lord of the Rings, Mechwarrior, and others. His work with the Metal Gear: Solid series, especially, have gained him recognition from Hideo Kojima himself."

  1. As the site gets slashdotted... by rasafras · · Score: 5, Insightful

    ...I can imagine thousands of people reaching for the "Mute" buttons on their computers.

    His skill with Lego is unfortunately not matched with his skill at website design. The coolness of the Legos definitely dwarfs the javascript, though.

    Is this thread conclusive proof that /.ers are nerds that couldn't get laid if we tried?

    It wasn't slashdotted when I first looked at it, and I'm not a subscriber. So i can only assume a greater degree of the slashdot populace is out getting laid right now than previously expected.

  6. In terms of Lego, this is hardly big news by SamSim · · Score: 5, Insightful

    As far as I can tell, all he's done is make a few customised little lego men. When I clicked the article, I was expecting life-size or at least moderately detailed models. Something like this... that is to say, something equally deserving of frontpage recognition. If I was the guy who'd made Han Solo, lifesize, I'd be disgusted to see this article at the top of the page, frankly.

  7. calling it recognition is a bit much by TheUberBob · · Score: 5, Funny

    ...though i'm sure a ceast and desist letter from Hideo Kojima was a flattering (and terrorizing) part of the lego-maniac's experiences in the world of metal gear mind-control conspirancies and plot-ran-amok.
