NEW! LEGO ‘PHILOSOPHY’ RANGE

After wasting too long making kits about police forces and Indiana Jones, Lego has at last raised its game and begun to produce a far more worthwhile range about… philosophers.

As a philosophy student about to graduate, the first 36 seconds hit hard.

Did the philosopher even know how hard it is to get these tiny 1x2 blocks off each other once you put them together like that? jeez.

It's all fun and games until the lego judges make lego Socrates drink lego hemlock for being a menace to lego society

[danparker]

I love Philosophy, I love Lego. I would buy this in an instant

"They make no money"
I started to laugh.

Can't wait for Aristotl-opoly. Hopefully with a fifth railway station.

I want to talk about a traumatic experience that I've never told anybody.... It is a very painful confession:
last year, while I was cleaning my desk one day, something terrible happened: I broke Sokrates' head!!  Yes I did...I glued it and all, but it didn't work so well: his head does not sit straight on his neck anymore... It breaks my heart everytime, to see him looking these lego things of yours are much better I see!!  They never break, huh? So I would like to order one Montaigne, one  Nietzsche, one Schopenhauer and one Alain please. One for every corner : for my soul's safety and sanity!
Thanks a lot for this wonderful idea and for the great lesson!

This could possibly be the greatest thing ever to happen to Lego... Being able to be Pythagoras, Confucius, Aristotle in Lego.

[andreacazares]

i need one of those. Many of them. Now.

Funny joke, but really the philosopher sets should come with something of an environment. Philosophers, regardless of how smart or universal their ideas, are always products of their place and time.

[TrollJohnSmith]

You know what would be funny? Lego Derrida. Got it? Anyone? Just me?

[SimplyMayaB]

This is brilliant, gonna share this in the facebook group for my philosophy major!

[libraryofthemind]

I want this so badly... would go good on my table.

[divinuminfernum]

a beautiful, simple and elegant understanding of the place of philosophy!

[someoneyoudontknow]

Was there Dipper at the background at 1:02?

[billybelcaro]

0:52 Are those stacks real Lego's? They seem a bit off brand for their lack of full opacity and seemless build.

[Traeumeer]

Actually that's a very fine definition of philosopher's work.

[richardedward]

Hysterical.  And I definitely appreciate how this video defines the function of a philosopher.

[philippdustin]

get a contract with lego and sell those ... I love the idea :3 :D

[lineikatabs]

I love how much you guys love LEGO. LEGO <3
