Lego Surprise
This is just to odd. An eight foot lego man washed up on shore in Florida and was found by a man out for his morning walk on the beach. Yahoo’s Plugged In has the story and they comment that it was more than likely a stunt, but still that would be just way cool to find just lying around on a beach. If it was a stunt it was not one officially done through Lego, which has denied any affiliation with the event. Follow the link for the full article below and a related video.
