Feel the Sting of the Lego Ninjas!

We all know that Lego is versatile, but you might not have know its use as a weapon-building material.

Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Rock Band and Batman have all felt the touch of Lego and it's been a pretty good mix each time, so it stands to reason that people would try other combinations. Mixing Lego and Fudge was delicious but impractical, and the seahorses still haven't quite recovered, so thank Samus for Aaron Dayman, who showed us how it's done by creating a veritable arsenal of Lego ninja weapons.

Created for the monthly building challenge on a Lego enthusiast website [http://www.classic-castle.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=18830], Aaron's collection includes throwing stars, nunchaka, and smoke bombs. Best of all, his Flickr page [http://www.flickr.com/photos/cbla_member/4427850734/] has an annotated version of the image with all the proper names for the weapons and a few tidbits of ninja trivia. It might not be the most practical collection of ninja weapons, but it's the first that's made me grin in delight.

For some reason, this reminds me of my school days of when I used to make little catapults out of school supplies.

Legos: You're doing it right!

In all seriousness, this is grand. Wonder how well the Lego Nunchuck works?

Who knows... they might just fall apart when you whack somebody on the head/chest/genitals
(actually, now everybody can partake in the magnificent testicular torment that comes along when someone messes around with nunchucks in the presence of a camera)

Of course they can be used as a weapon. Ever stepped on one of those bricks before? hurts like a *****.

LEGO NINJAS!

They actually had a ninjas theme collection of sets years ago...and it was awesome.

The swords were as tall as the figures! And I pretended that they had elemental powers and fought. I played with them. Not just looked at them.

My brother had that set! (He had every Lego set known to man.) We would have a three way war with them, the pirate Legos, and the medieval Legos. Awesome indeed.

add some swords on the ends of the nunchuks and we may have something there

A kid that goes to my school built a crossbow out of legos.
And it worked.

Lego really is the ultimate builders material. Also those caltrops would really work. Stepping on lego pieces provides the same effect.
