Lego Super 8 Projector: Movies Never Looked Better
There are things in the world that are hard to let go of, and then there are things that you simply shouldn't let go of at all. It is hard to let go of the Walkman for example, but there is a superior medium that will benefit you when it comes to accessibility and quality. However, a vinyl record ha ...

Lego Stop Motion: 3 Star Wars Movies Retold In 2 Minutes
There have been many attempts to try and summon the Star Wars movies into posters, designs, icons and even in parts of the episodes in Lego. However, there have never been, to my knowledge, an attempt to compile all the three prequels into one fast and understandable... well, Lego stop motion movie. ...

The Escape: Portal 2 Recreated In Lego
Someone told me once that you should never start an article with a question, but this time I kind of have to. Did I ever play Portal? Did I ever play Portal 2? The answer for those two questions is definitely no. I have only been exposed to the game through the countless trailers, spoofs and relentl ...

Wow! World’s Largest Model Airport Design
Since I'm on the Internet almost all day everyday, it's rare that I see something that impresses me as much as this does. On Bit Rebels, we've written about many different kinds of builds, some of which have taken two or three years to make, but I think I've found something that will trump every sin ...

Retro Commercial: Welcome To Lego In 1960
It's 2011 and Lego has never been more popular. The only bad thing about it is that it's still really expensive if you want the cool stuff. Just imagine that Lego has been around since 1949 when Danish businessman Godtfred Kirk Christiansen developed it. It's one of those ideas that would come to ch ...

Magnificent Ghostbusters Lego Mashup Tattoo
We have been talking a lot about the combination of concepts here on Bit Rebels. It's a hyper creative way of smashing two good things into one, making it into an ultra viral mash-up of goodness. There are countless examples of that here on Bit Rebels, and if I were to list them all, this entire art ...

Life Size Lego Helmet: The ONLY Way To Listen To Audio Books
As I stated in the beginning of my humble Twitter career, Lego is the solution to everything, and I live by that in a way. And no, I don't mean that I go around incorporating Lego builds to solve all my problems, even though that would be truly awesome. What I mean by that expression is that if ever ...

The REAL Working Lego Car
Anyone who has been following Bit Rebels since the very beginning remembers my article about the Lego car that traveled the world as a life-size car made entirely out of Lego. The article "Can't Afford A Car? Build A Lego One..." attracted a lot of views and still stands as the record article for mo ...

Giant Lego Batman Is Too Stiff To Fight Crimes
Who doesn't want to be a superhero? Our lives would be all about kickin' butt whenever necessary in the name of everything good on the planet. Most of us won't even come close to that, but that doesn't mean we can't be inspired by it. When I say "most of us," I of course mean the overall population. ...

New World Record: The World’s Tallest Lego Tower
When I read that there was a new world record for the tallest Lego tower, my brain didn't really comprehend how tall it would be. This colorful tower of geeky goodness looks like it touches the sky! It's shaky too, and part of me wonders if it fell down, if a person on the ground would get hurt from ...

How To: Build A Lego Ship In A Bottle
Did you know that it's really possible to build a Lego ship in a bottle? It is! I can tell you after watching this time-lapse video that it will take a very steady hand and a ton of patience. Julia Morley gets my Geek of the Week award for sure!
She says at the beginning of the video that this "p ...

Rymdreglage: 8-Bit Retro Lego Stop Motion Music Video
When geeks get creative the most wonderful things can happen. It doesn't always happen, but it does quite often, even if I may say so myself. A geek's creativity might not speak to the overall general population, but it's evident that their brainchildren usually make a high impact on social media se ...

A Working Camera Made With Lego Bricks
I follow a lot of photographers on Twitter, and I learn from them everyday. People like @NiniBaseema and @ThomasMarzano have really shown me that photography can be one of the most creative forms of self expression and art. Unlike some art forms that seem cliché after a while, photography never gets ...

Lego Stilettos: A Geek Girl’s Dream Come True
I only have two things to say about these dreamy shoes. 1) Hale yes 2) There are only going to be twelve pairs made, and I'm getting a pair. I will knock your punk ass down if you get in my way. I know, there is no need to get violent, but cut me some slack. After all, have you ever seen such a glor ...

The Royal Wedding Built With 170,000 Legos
As the whole world gets ready for the latest royal wedding on April 29th, marketers everywhere are using the hype to their advantage. It seems we've seen Prince William and Kate Middleton's faces on just about every product you can imagine. Just a few days ago I wrote about the William & Kate Co ...
