In case it disappears, there is a picture of a mindstorms unit with the
following text:
Most folks have some sort of childhood memory involving LEGOs (+114%). For some,
it’s of building a brightly colored skyscraper. For others, it’s of being rushed
to the ER with a LEGO-man’s torso up their nose. Whatever your experience with
the plastic blocks all those years ago, there’s no denying LEGOS are surging in
the Search box. The catalyst for this block-tacular boom has to be the
videogame, LEGO Star Wars. Searches on the kid-friendly title, which combines
the setting and story of Star Wars with the look and feel of a LEGO inspired
world, have climbed 303% since its release last month. Of course, not all
LEGO-related searches have to do with a galaxy far, far away. Here are six of
the Buzz’s most popular searches. Go forth and build something -- but keep the
little bricks out of your nose.
1. LEGO Star Wars -- Jar-Jar and C-3PO are somehow less annoying in block
form.
2. LEGOLAND -- fan of plastic bricks? This is your Graceland.
3. History of LEGOs -- recently voted the best plastic product of all time.
Take that, Tupperware!
4. New Star Wars LEGOs -- not to be confused with
their virtual cousins.
5. Castle LEGOs -- perfect for the ambitious builder
with a thing for moats.
6. Spider-Man LEGOs -- sometimes the web-head can be
a real block-head.
