Google has given us all free reign to develop Oceania. We built a nice little island in the middle of Melbourne. Complete with a thatched roof hut, chair and Great White shark guard! Yes its supposed to be a shark. ;)

Germans love David Hasselhof....and giant LEGO bridges!

Last year in October street artist Megx decided to take this old train line bridge in Wuppertal, Germany and Legofy it! Don't we think that life is always a little better with some bricks in it?

The Hallway!

Working Land Rover Defender 110.

Its Amazing what you can do with Lego's!

This isn’t LEGO, this is engineering work in 1:8.5 scape built from 3 kilograms of plastic, basically 2,800 parts, plus the 7 motors and 3 infra-red receivers involved. Some might say that playing with kid’s toys isn’t a good think, but the design is intricate that it bewilders us to no end, since the Land Rover 110 built by Sheepo even has a gearbox, a transfer case and brakes. It’s even got a fur-cylinder fake engine that moves with the drive electric motors. The lego masterpiece has opening doors, working suspension, folding bench seats in the back. Disc brakes have been included in all four wheels, and the gearbox has four gears plus reverse, engaged via auto clutch. Honestly, the only way to make this more complicated is by adding guns and a beverage compartment. The body even comes of the frame, so you could potentially add a body with a full cab or whatever else flips your boat. All those tricks you see the LEGO Land Rover Defender 110 are controlled via a remote control that, get this, is also made from LEGO.-AutoEvolution.com

ITTTSSSS SOOOOOOO FLUFFYYYY!!!!!

We love movies here at the Tutoring Toy. Especially Dex and I. Often we take some of our favorite movies and hide little jokes from them in the windows. Some of those jokes make it into every window scene we do. Next time your looking in our playmobil window see if you can find our favorite little BushMan! One character we loved putting into one of our past windows was Agnes from Despicable Me. She was featured in our Playmobil School House Window which is now on display in the Playmobil Section of our Store.

Dex likes to make us look bad.

Here's Dex's Version of our previous "How to Draw R2D2" Post!

I'm not so sure I believe him when he says he just followed the instructions!
