    The plural of "Lego" is "Lego" not "Legos."

    Should be worth a watch when it airs.

    James May?!! Im in on this then. Bring on the TV Lego house!



    Also, judging from the current price of Lego that house has got to be shocking expensive.

    Hopefully it doesn't turn out like the giant ball of Lego the mythbusters made and suffer a catastrophic structutral failure.

    Bah, it's got a wood foundation.

    That just dropped it two coolness points.

    Yeah - WTF? But the foundation doesn't bug me (no real way around that), it's the supports inside that shouldn't be allowed.

    it used to drive me crazy when my parents would refer to them as "Legos".
    "Lego blocks/bricks" is what they are, Lego is the brand name product.

    All houses should be made from Lego. No need to demolish an old building with explosives or a wrecking ball - just send someone along with a huge plastic tub to dismantle it into.

    This x 1000 - it bugs the hell out of me when it's incorrectly pluralised like that. Or pronounced "Lay goes"

    I didn't bother to read the article; but unless they coated those Lego in some kind of weather ******ant, they're going to dry up and crack in about 3 months, probably less.
