      Ok, so this is a 1:12th scale Unimog and not the real thing. Still, this is the closest Americans can get to the Unimog and that isn't all bad. To commemorate the 60th birthday of the Unimog, Mercedes and LEGO teamed up to make this model. This is a LEGO Technic model, which means not for children under 10 or even some adults we know, so a more complex set. And more complexity is fine because that means the Unimog set comes with a fully functional pneumatic gripper arm. We are accepting Unimog sets to "test" if anyone from LEGO is reading...

      Available for sale in August, about $275.

        First of all, if LEGO's are too overwhelming it might be indicative of bigger problems...

        Anybody who does not like LEGO's has no soul, it's a proven equation.

        LEGOs were sent here by aliens to control our minds. And it works.

        Only an advanced alien species could create something so awesome.
