I tried to kill off the world's Lego before
with an idea, but had to admit failure....
so
I bring you my submission: Lego-saurus.
It's just a set of Lego that makes into a
specific dinosaur, except each buiding
brick is individually made with a small
number on its locking protrusions,
that
corresponds to the ones into which it
fits.
The Lego set then also performs like a
Jig-
saw.
When completed, the model looks like a
dinosaur made out of Lego, except with
much smoother outlines, due to the
idividually curved contours of each brick.
Comes in full colour, or traditional
primaries. Don't get the kits mixed
together unless you like a challenge or
want to create monsters !

Each piece individualized? Production
would cost considerably more for a press
for each individual piece. Their
mindstorms idea is great though... It adds
another element of user-creativity while
not adding significantly to traditional
production costs. |

there are plenty of dinosaur kits, and you
can make one out of the regular lego
bricks, but it will have exaggerated saw-
toothed edges unless it is huge. |
|

The Lego-sauruses will look like models of
dinosaurs, but with a parallel horizantal
and vertically tiled surface, with the bricks
all having the same depth, but width
variations..... hope this explains it a little
more. |

+ Or they'll just ignore you and you'll see the idea in next years Christmas catalogue. |
