We talk about Lego a lot here on the blue. We also talk about Arrested Development. Now we can do both... at the same time.

omg, the stair car. The only way it could be better is with a hop-on.

My only gripe is that Maeby's shirt looks like something Tobias would be more likely to wear. But hey, Franklin!

Now someone needs to do a shot by shot remake of the entire series with Lego - that should keep my held over until the movie, at least.

Awesome, thanks.

After being totally let down by Run Ronnie Run and Strangers With Candy, I'm pretty gunshy about seeing movies based on my favorite shows.

I know I'll totally go to this one anyway, though.

Are you doing this just to annoy those of us who insist on calling them LEGO pieces or bricks?

*twitch*

Because it's working.

Well no, apparently we can't. At least not right now.

Of course this reminded me of another great comedy and Lego combo, Eddie Izzard

Heh. I almost arrested my son's development last night when I stepped on one of his Lego pieces in the dark.

I would love to do this, but my Legos are up in the attic and I don't want to climb up into that musty ol' claptrap.

Needs more Ron Howard.

The original photoset is here.

Mefightclub folks might be interested in his Team Fortress 2 miniland-scale figures.

"talk about" != "recite quotations ad nauseum from"

Needs more banana stand. It's crazy how much this looks like Jason Bateman, though.

Not quite sure what you mean here.

Her?


Oh, right, I see.

Sorry to be so dense but what is GOB holding in his hand?

Don't mind if I do!

It's like she gets off on being withholding.

Chaw-chee-chaw.
Have any of you ever seen a chicken?

I love Marta.
Mom's housekeeper?
Gob's girlfriend.

Everyone's laughing and riding and cornholing except Buster.

You think the OP, who can afford a $4600 suit, has the time to find pictures of Gob in a suit that cheap? Come on!

From the same guy, also in LEGO: Ladies' Night at the Palace Hotel Ballroom (exterior), as seen in The Blues Brothers.

No, Marta was an actress on a telenovela, not a housekeeper. I'd call you out as a RACIST OMG for mixing up your Latinas willy-nilly, but she was played by two women.

That was the joke, I think.

Also, she was played by three women, the third being in a flashback in Season 3 when Michael thinks about how bad his family has been to his previous dates.

Ahhh yeah, now I remember that episode! *pressing forearms to sides of Bluth Corn Ball Fryer*

Yes, the Marta exchange is straight dialogue from my favorite scene, where Michael and Lindsay get progressively drunker and discover their mother is playing them against each other.
