Oct 30 2008In Time For Halloween: LED LEGO Minifigs
Just in time for Halloween comes a DIY article on how to stuff an LED into a LEGO minifig's carved out head. It isn't too complicated, so if you have some LEDs lying around you could make a pretty sweet LEGO Halloween diorama tonight and be ready for tomorrow. And, honestly, is there anything cooler than celebrating the devil's holiday with LEGO minifigs? No, there isn't. Well, except for the rich family that hands out full-size Snickers bars.
Hit the jump for more pictures and a link to the DIY page.

That lego is totally photoshoper the shadows are all wrong that is clearly a megablox figure but lego will never back down

Fake!!!
This is an obvious photoshop job. You can tell because the shadows are all wrong.
It does look sort of like the animated feature that ran before the original theatrical release of Never Back Down.

@8, So did I, and I busted out in song right here at work thinking that my life long fantasy of sticking small homosexuals in my anus was finally a reality!
Imagine my disapointment....

@10 - There are a few prerequisites to that which you have utterly failed at. Foremost in that regard is your consistent inability to engage in sexual congress with a member of the opposite sex.

this is not photoshopped, shadows are fine, and seriously, just look at the face, he didnt even do a good job of cutting out the face, if it was photoshop you think it would look so crappy?
