Once again, builder Maxx Davidson has treated us to some delightful eye candy, skillfully incorporating not only LEGO bricks, but also other assorted elements that might require a deep dive into the internet to confirm their authenticity as “LEGO-branded.” Titled ‘Assorted Childhood Toys,’ the undiscerning eye would be hard-pressed to identify these as toys built out of other toys. However, the builder has expertly used LEGO to transport the beholder to a place of reminiscence.
Though rare to come by nowadays, this evokes memories of trips to the grocery store. I almost want to ask Mom for a quarter in hopes of scoring a small plastic treat!
It’s hard to imagine anyone who wouldn’t immediately recognize the shape of a yo-yo, isn’t it? This contraption fuses together parts from the LEGO Dots and Sonic the Hedgehog themes into an iconic toy.
While these ginormous jacks are a sight to behold, it’s the use of the Earth sphere from LEGO Technic 42179 Planet Earth and Moon in Orbit as a bouncy ball that really sells it here.
Last but not least, this brings back personal memories of visiting a doctor’s office and enjoying my time while waiting to be seen by my medical provider.
And this is no one-off from this skilled builder. Take a look through the TBB archives to see some of Maxx’s other astounding work.
Some of the pieces gotta be 3d printed in the certain colors. Which is why I want one so bad!
I’m guessing you mean the flexible bars. I can’t see layer lines, maybe they used electrical wiring or a knock-off Lego product
We only had the yo-yo.
Wondering if those little balls can actually come out through that little opening.
P.S. “Though rare to come by nowadays, this evokes memories of trips to the grocery store”: what is rare to come by nowadays, this [build] or the grocery store?
