Lego Anyone?

We have all heard of Lego Land but what about actually visiting Lego World, as in World Headquarters.  That is just what Gizmodo was able to do and they got a lot of questions answered.  Everyone has had Legos, in fact I am staring at some on my desk right now.  It is amazing to see how far they have come in design and innovation of a plastic brick and yet still are successful at selling the original design from 1958.  This is truly a toy that will endure the times and last forever (because they are plastic).  I am surprised you didn’t see any in the trash that Wall-e was compacting.  (Great movie)  Check out the article and cure those inner questions of Lego.

From Gizmodo….

You sent the questions and now here are the answers. Do you want to know how many bricks are produced per minute? How many bricks have been produced n history? What’s the best-selling set ever? What has been the worst? Do they recycle? How did they survive the crisis that almost killed them? How successful is Mindstorms? What are the actual names of each of the pieces? Why there are no blondes in Lego sets? Why there are extra pieces sometimes? Here’s the definitive mega-reference, straight from Lego.
