The Lego Apple Store

by Mike Schramm Oct 17th 2008 at 3:00PM


Man, for all of the gadget lovin', excellent software, and community power floating around the Mac crowd, this is the real reason why I'm such a fan of the cult of Mac: someone loved the Apple Store enough to make a Lego version of it. Just awesome -- look at the little nanochromatic iPods, the touches and iPhones, the iMacs and even a Cinema for good measure. The only thing missing, really, is the black t-shirted Geniuses, complete with little credit card swipers so you don't have to go up to the counter.

Really great. I don't know what kind of loyalty exists that would drive a person to recreate a retail space in Lego form, but I'm strangely glad it's out there somewhere.

This is awesome. I swear it's just like my local store. Even down to the floor layout and where each of the individual items is located in the store.

I see Mike still doesn't know the difference between Geniuses and Specialists. Or just simply what a Genius is as compared to anything else that could be in an Apple Store.

I call fluff on this one too.

Mike should be fined for this post.

How about a lego version of a disgruntled customer bitching out a "genius"?
