Evolution by GLENNZ Tees
Here at Geekadelphia, we’re helplessly smitten by all things LEGO. That is why this shirt rocks, besides the simple reminder that we are all stocky, blocky, yellow people derived from a 1×1 flat unit.

Gorgeous Lego Wall-E: Built By Pixar Animator Angus MacLane

Daddy, Where do Stormtroopers Come From?

Restoring Crumbling Walls With Lego: A Solution For I-95?
Italian artist Jan Vormann went around town and, in a moment of pure genius, filled in a bunch of cracks with beautiful clicked-together patches made from Legos.
Really, we should have hired him to take care of that i-95 crack. You can see the rest of the photos on the artist’s page, here. How awesome.
