Apparently, in the LEGO fan community there's a specific style of character building called CubeDude that was developed by a guy who just so happens to work for Pixar. At any rate, LEGO fans jumped all over the design this guy developed, creating numerous variations depicting endless versions of different characters from movies, cartoons, comic books, etc. It's a neat design, but my favorite just so happens to be this M.O.D.O.K., created coincidentally by my friend and part-time Nerd Dad blogger, Paul Lee.
As a fan of both the consistently beautiful oddness of Japanese culture and of GLEE, this commercial fills my heart with happiness. It's made even better with the knowledge that the big singing dude is Akebono Tarō, one of the greatest sumo wrestlers ever and now one of the pro wrestlers for All Japan Pro Wrestling.
Christmas is done and over, but that doesn't mean we have to stop spending like good little consumers! And with the advent of a new Tron era just around the corner, what self-respecting nerd dad wouldn't want to be sporting one of these shirts when the summer weather hits?
Or, for the more daring, how about this glow-in-the-dark number?
