King Joe Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 ... That's weird. At least we KNOW that the pod thing that LEGO did last year was LEGO's doing. This...Is just kinda creepy. Does LEGO even make 8 foot tall figs? My Old comics, Of Hedgehogs and Lego Bricks - My Epic, Hero Factory: The Biosteel ChroniclesTrifecta!

Meiko Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 Yeah, I saw this as a shared link on a social networking site, but didn't get the opportunity to look at it.

Meiko Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 (edited) I think it may be one of the coolest pranks that I've ever seen that had no intent for them whatsoever! If anything, it was intended to get attention by the media, but I can't think of much else the person responsible for this could have wanted! Right on there, bud (Whoever you are )!

Erebus Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 Yeah, that's pretty interesting. I wonder what the message is. In any case, I hope someone steps forward and claim responsibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legolover-361 Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 In any case, I hope someone steps forward and claim responsibility. The Lego man has "Ego Leonard" on its back; googling "no real than you are" will bring you to the Dutch artist Ego Leonard's website. I forget if he already admitted to it, but if I recall correctly he has done this before, so it's easy to assume he did it again.
