Something just that awesome

Post by archonix » Tue Jul 13, 2010 10:48 pm

When it comes to dedicated fans, sometimes it seems there are non more dedicated than Science Fiction fans, and Futurama Fans especially. This huge Lego set of the Planet Express building and a not insignificant chunk of New New York is simply astounding. It has everything, including the sewers!

It even has that video billboard.

Outstanding.

Yes I know it's been floatig around the web for a little while. Hush.

That's the first I've seen of it. Quite cool!

Probably not random enough to go in the random thread:

That cake is brilliant. I know what I'm requesting for my next birthday.

And the lego sets are amazing. I'd seen the PE one before, but I completely missed the sewer set.

I've seen those cake shows, and wanted to jump into that so bad...
