Iconic. SZ.

For allowing me to make a Darth Vader vs Santa lightsaber battle, Seb zero. In fact, I'm gonna say absolute zero which is pretty damn frosty.

 

[JMoney]

It's Legos, it's the coolest toy ever made. The Minifigures could be better (actually a lot better), but they're still Lego.

Sub-Zero.

Little known fact: You can remove the hands, arms, and legs separately.

Used to great effect in this:


might he foul language, so be warned.

 

[The Bman]

Never have I had so much pleasure dismembering Jar Jar Binks and having a fight to the death between Spider-Man and a Clone Trooper.

I'm not a Lego fan, but I did get lucky enough to land Homer Simpson in one of those blind bag deals that sells for couple of bucks. First try! Thank you Legos!

 

[SomePlayaDude]

An amazing source of creative innovation. If only the games are just as good.

 

[Legro]

It breaks the laws of thermodynamics, because even absolute point zero isn't as cool as these.

 

[Lizard]

SZ.

Although Americans calling it Legos and not Lego puts that status at risk.

 

[daan]

Lego is cool, but there are just too many minifigures out there for them all to be sub zero or cool.

Uncool.

 

[Adamgp]

Sub Zero.

So many childhood memories.

 

[Tornado]

Legos!

 

[edawg456]

Brings back childhood memories. Which makes this an instant subzero.

 

[Bo]

It's the most iconic and perfectly designed toy figure one could possibly invent. It has everlasting, universal appeal.

SZ.

Legos!

Legos!

Legos,

Stop.

"Legos" is our American revenge for hearing you folks across the pond say the word "maths".

Emmett helped defeat the Kragle, could beat-box, and escaped interrogation...so that counts for something. But he ruined Taco Tuesday and sings the same song all the time, like SiriusXM.

Meh.

 

[JR98]

Sub to the Zero! Because reasons of LEGO!

"Maths" is just short for Mathematics, over here.
"Legos" is just plain wrong.

Would you rather say Legos or Legomatics?

 

[Nessy]

Would you rather say Legos or Legomatics?

Neither. Legobricks is okay though.

 

[Tornado]

Would you rather say Legos or Legomatics?

Lego Brand Building Blocks.


It's just like Band Aid Brand Adhesive Medical Strips, or Dumpster Brand Waste Receptacles.








Legomatics sounds like an economic term, amusingly.

 

[Bo]

It's like Calling a Ford Fiesta a Fordses. It doesn't work.

 

[DurWinning]

Sub-Zero because of this alone.

 

[EvanJamesLee]

I have the first lego fireman and first lego police man's hat. I also have a couple of the old spacemen.
