Shaun of the Dead Gets Lego Makeover
There seems to be a bit of a Lego theme happening here at NerdsRaging today.
Ever wondered what British horror/comedy Shaun of the Dead would look like made out of the little coloured bricks? Well it would seem that Flickr user Yatkuu did. In fact, Yatkuu wondered so much that he/she actually went out and made a full recreation of the Winchester Pub using everyone’s favourite childhood construction toy. As you do.
He/she also recreated the ‘Don’t Stop Me Now’ fight scene as well as a version of the movie poster. All in Lego.
Now don’t get me wrong, I actually think the models are all kinds of cool. I’m just a bit bemused at the choice of movie. Shaun of the Dead was a great film and one of my favourites, but does it warrant a Lego makeover? Having said that, does anything warrant a Lego makeover? After seeing the Lego Hadron Collider anything is possible.
Will the shaun of the dead lego ever be for sale and were can I buy it
I'm not sure you can actually buy the Shaun of the Dead Lego, Adam. I think the guy that made it – Yatkuu – just did it for fun. If you look at his Flickr page (http://www.flickr.com/photos/yatkuu/) you'll see he has a thing about Lego and zombies.
Indeed I did this for the fun and my "Win" isn't for sale.. but I have submitted the project on the Lego website CUUSOO, if we get enough supporters Lego will consider producing it as a real set – no kidding.
You can vote for the Winchester to become a real Lego set here: http://lego.cuusoo.com/ideas/view/7451
Wow. That is awesome news! We shall endeavour to promote your Winchester Lego set! Thanks for taking the time to write to us and clarify our misconceptions. Good luck with the Winchester!
Good stuff I’ve bookmarked this in Digg under “Shaun of the Dead Gets Lego Makeover Nerds Raging”. So hopefully our friends can give you a visit. Cheers!
Lol that looks great, I'd love to have purchase a shaun of the dead lego kit as I am a heavy fan of the movie. Any ideas if I can find it in shops?
