Do you want a Lego version of yourself?

If you love LEGOs like I do, you should visit the new LEGO store in the United Kingdom. They have some amazing things there, which you can learn about in the link below. The most amazing is the Mosiac Maker. It is like a photo booth you might see at a wedding, but instead of printing your picture, it immediately produces a box with the legos you need to make a LEGO mosiac of your face. You use a sample picture and then have to build the picture for yourself, using legos of 5 colors. It might take a long time, because every box comes with 4,502 pieces! And it will take a lot of money too… after you fly to the UK, you still have to pay for the portrait: 99 British Pounds, or about 80.000 Chilean Pesos. Would you buy one? If I am ever in that area, I will definitely be tempted.

Watch this video to see how it works!

It mixed an awesome comedy with an extremely serious question that can come up in our minds in everyday life: “Why do we do things?” For example, the movie begins with a regular ordinary construction guy, who never questions anything the instructions require, although it’s exaggerated, most people could identify themselves with this behavior of our society. Most times we don’t decide to act because of our own ideas, but because of others.
