Description This is how I play with Legos.
It's the best way to play.
I find ever Legoman head in the large Rubbermaid container that holds them, often to the chagrin of others enjoying LEGO DAY with me (LEGO DAY is an arbitrary announcement of "hey, bring your LEGOs over here, biatch!" and involves college students reenacting the Colbert Report and forgetting about their stop-motion animation all together because Snakes on a motherfucking Plane distracted them), and pile them onto the most naked Legoman I can find in the box. He then proudly struts his stuff until someone breaks off a piece of that Kit-Kat Bar Legoman HEADSTACK.

I'm thinking about submitting this into a group gallery show that'll be held in Detroit in February. I haven't decided the type of paper it'll br printed out on yet, but I need to get it as well as my application in asap.

Legoman design is (c) the Lego Group, which is based in Denmark (Wikipedia told me so). I take no claim for having come up with the basic design. I simply have expressed my own illustration of it as well as how one should utilize it.

Artwork (c) 2007 M. Winkler/www.acrylicana.com. Artwork not for your use. Albeit featuring it with links back to this account or my website are acceptable. I like it when people speak of me in a favorable manner. I also wonder how many people read my subtext.

Yes! That is excellent beyond all reason. D8

Headstacking is a natural part of the Lego way. Why else would they put those bumps on the top?

marywinkler In reply to KristenPlescow [2007-12-21 02:33:32 +0000 UTC]

hahaha I think when they designed them, they sat around a massive table, these men in suits, and said, "ah, yes, the Legoman...he shall be king of all men for his headstacking abilities!" and another said, "but sir, surely they can just wear hats?" "oh no, my son, they are designed to reach the tallest building with a head..."

KristenPlescow In reply to marywinkler [2007-12-23 16:09:11 +0000 UTC]

Lol... that's probably true. I bet they have the secret developer's tapes in the Lego corperation castle somewhere (guarded by legomen with headstacks, of course).

They guard the headstack secrets with their lives. :0

so funny! oh legos...i used to build the castles but I would get super mad when the pieces had that sweet way of not snapping in quite right and smash them then I would get upset because I had to start over such a tormented childhood I had!

marywinkler In reply to jnsun [2007-12-20 04:16:28 +0000 UTC]

aaah. haha
I never had the patience to follow through with following their long directions to build the castles. XD
But yeah, when those blocks don't fit together properly, or, OH when they're stuck together! Drives me crazy. hahaha. oh, good times. frustration and destruction.

I always tried to figure out how to place more arms on the guy.. but it never really worked.
I did get some extra legs attached though!

marywinkler In reply to BleedingSmile [2007-12-19 18:01:09 +0000 UTC]

LOL
Yes, oh em gee the extra legs. XD that's always fun. and to make them all bend. ahahahaha.
Every so often am arm would come out of the socket and I'd put a head on it. It didn't actually stick toegher, but I could make it creepily scrape across the ground.
