Forbidden Lego

Product Description

It just may be impossible to exhaust the creative potential of LEGO bricks. With an active imagination as your guide there are endless possibilities-provided you follow the LEGO Companys official (and sensible) rules. This means no cutting or tampering with bricks creating models that shoot unapproved projectiles or using non-standard parts with any LEGO product. After all those little precision-molded ABS bricks can be dangerous in the wrong hands! Well toss those rules out the window. Forbidden Lego introduces you to the type of free-style building that LEGOs master builders do for fun in the back room. Using LEGO bricks in combination with common household materials (from rubber bands & glue to plastic spoons & ping-pong balls) along with some very unorthodox building techniques youll learn to create working models that LEGO would never endorse. Try your hand at a toy gun that shoots LEGO plates a candy catapult a high voltage LEGO vehicle a continuous-fire ping-pong ball launcher & other useless but incredibly fun inventions. Once you get into the spirit youll want to try inventing your own rule-breaking models. Forbidden Legos authors share tips & tricks that will inspire you & help you turn your visions into reality. Nothings against the rules in this book!
