‘Lego’ and Apple. Can it get much better than this?

All right, so astute observers will note that it’s not really a Lego set, but a custom set created by PodBrix, a custom Lego ‘hacking’ company.

For me, this is a must-have set. I wasted spent many hours of my youth on my Dad’s Apple][e. Flight Simulator and Wizardry...I remember them well.

This set seems to encompass everything cool about the release of the Apple ][. Check out the 2001 themed calendar on the wall

They’ve got an awesome about/faq page that overviews the organization and company:

What is PodBrix?

Tomi Responds:
PodBrix sells modified minifigs inspired by the popular ad campaign for portable music players. In the future we may branch out to other related minifigs.

How are the PodBrix minifigs created?

Tomi Responds:
I start with a standard LEGO® brand minifig and modify it by hand to create the desired appearance. Each one is slightly different.

Do you paint the figures? How do you get the desired color of the minifig.

Tomi Responds:
All the figures are injection molded plastic manufactured in the proper color. Nothing is painted.

So, Wednesday night at 10 7pm MDT, orders start. I guess I’ll be online at that time. Wish me luck
