"The word LEGO® is a brand name and is very special to all of us in the LEGO Group Companies. We would sincerely like your help in keeping it special. Please always refer to our bricks as 'LEGO Bricks or Toys' and not 'LEGOS.' By doing so, you will be helping to protect and preserve a brand of which we are very proud and that stands for quality the world over. Thank you! Susan Williams, Consumer Services."..........................................
Dear Susan Williams,
It is with dire embarrassment (and shame) to admit the sole LEGO room in FriendFeed has an "s", since LEGO was already taken by an individual who DOESN'T EVEN USE THE ACCOUNT!!!!! Thank you kindly for your understanding. Regards, Admin

Commenter: <<However, I am having a hard time to believe that Lego actually endorses advertising using a war theme (picture 3). As far as I know, Lego never went into actual war topics with its products.>>
- Philipp Lenssen
Lego has quite a few "war" style products - always been pirates, knights but also futuristic ranges like bionicle and exo-force etc. Not to forget star wars
- Joelle Nebbe (iphigenie)
In "my time", we often build guns out of lego. That's the good thing with those bricks, they allow for an infinite amount of creations, with no regard for political correctness, or parental taste.
- Philipp Lenssen
Philipp: Did the same thing. Quite powerful lego guns using rubber bands and lego projectiles.
- Jesper Lind
Heh. I should add, our guns were more fantasy based, if I remember right, without any power to actually hurt people. We did have working Playmobil pirate cannons though, and there were quite a few games you could play with those :)
- Philipp Lenssen
"As far as I know, Lego never went into actual war topics with its products." -- As you say, Joelle... I guess if one doesn't consider knights & castles, pirates, the forts and soldiers in the western sets, ninjas, the machine-gun toting German soldiers in the Indiana Jones sets or the Star Wars sets "war topics"... that's true. You also have to overlook the entire Bionicles line.
- Ken Sheppardson
Never played with anything else but the good old bricks. Beautiful invention, LEGO

Flickr user Legofesto (who prefers to remain anonymous) was fed up with news outlets refusing to publish images depicting torture due to their graphic nature. So he recreated the images and first-hand accounts using Legos to protest what he saw as irresponsible censorship.

200,000 LEGO Brick Japanese Warship - simonwicks's posterous - http://simonwicks.posterous.com/200000-...
LouCypher, Kol Tregaskes, Bill Sodeman and 10 other people liked this
How long do you think it would take to build a 200,000 LEGO brick model of the legendary Japanese Warship, Yamato? It took Jumpei Mitsui six years and four months to create the warship, which is built at a scale of 1/40, weighs over 330 pounds (150kg), measures 21 feet (6.6m) from bow to stern, and is 3 feet (1m) wide at the widest point of the ship. I bet Jumpei's mom never got on his case for never finishing what he started. Read more: http://simonwicks.posterous.com/200000-...

Members of the congregation donated nearly 30,000 Lego bricks to build the 5ft 8 high statue, said Per Wilder, the pastor of the Oensta Gryta Church in Vaesteras, about 70 miles west of Stockholm. "This work began a year and a half ago so we saw that the initiation date was fitting in well (with this year's Easter holiday)," he said.

"LEGO hacker Philo Hurbain needed a way to model some of the more complex LEGO parts for use in the LDraw LEGO CAD program. Most LEGO parts are easy to model, but something like the tiny LEGO frog, shown above, is a little more tricky. Philo's solution: a 3D scanner made entirely of LEGO, save for a needle that's used as the probe." [via MAKE Magazine http://blog.makezine.com/archive...]
