Big Lego Blackberry built

By

Lego artist/sculpter/genius Nathan Sawaya has created the ultimate in geek toys, a giant Lego RIM Blackberry Tour 9360 complete with working LCD screen.


The 'artwork' stands at about 1.5 metres high and follows one of his previous projects, a similarly giant Lego iPhone. Clearly Sawaya has no particular loyalty to either.

It is unclear how much Nathan Sawaya was paid to create the sculpture, but he was commissioned to create the piece. He writes, "I was commissioned to create a giant Blackberry Tour 9360 smartphone out of LEGO bricks. But there was a catch. It couldn't be just a static replica, it needed to have a video screen that really worked. Fun."

"After some trial and error, I embedded a flat screen TV into my brick sculpture to get the effect of having working video in this over-sized brick smartphone."

The phone isn't useful for anything much, apart from some publicity for RIM/Lego and something to add to "the art of the brick museum show", which Sawaya tours around America.
