The Most Evil Lego Men of All Time
Even the uniformly yellow world of Lego is safe from evil, as custom Lego weapons makers Brick Arms (seriously, they mostly sell stuff like sniper rifles and hunting knifes and Lugers for Lego men) have begun selling a Lego Terrorist (on the left) and many, many Lego Nazis (the SS Major on the right). It might be because it’s close to Christmas, but the evil Lego men have turned up everywhere in the news recently, with Muslims and Germans and the Lego Company and whoever else they quote decrying that Lego men could possibly be so evil, not that the toys are available in stores or anywhere but Brickarms.com, and or that they’re even theoretically available to anyone under 18 years of age. But because of all the coverage, Brickarms has sold so many of the damn figures that they’ve had to stop taking orders entirely. Well done, world. That’ll show those bastards.

Under his tenure Topless Robot was covered by Gawker, Wired, Defamer, New York magazine, ABC News, and others, and his articles have been praised by Roger Ebert, Avengers actor Clark Gregg, comedian and The Daily Show correspondent John Hodgman, the stars of Mystery Science Theater 3000 and Rifftrax, and others.
