engadget.com — It doesn't get much better than when the Lego bricks of our youth meet our gadget stash of today, and while we've seen Lego docks for various devices before, Chris C built himself an all-in-one unit to house his 8252, iPod and DS Lite in plastic digs..

This is the coolest dock I've ever seen and want one of my own, will you build me one ? ;)

With all the lego mods and stuff that you see on Digg you think Lego would make you your own custom dock for like $40 bucks or something. Now THAT would be awesome.

looks good and well constructed, but i gotta wonder did you already have all those perfectly matching legos? I had a bunch of legos as a kid too but I could have never made something specificially for docking with all matching colors. Did you paint some or do you work for Lego (or have a hook up)?

the problem is to have it look this nice you have to get semi colored lego boxes! or buy alot of lego hospitals (the might have lots of white bricks)

For once and for all, THERE IS NO f**kING "S" on the end of the word LEGO! It's the same as "sheep" or "moose." The singular is also the plural. In the 22 years I can remember of building with the stuff, I've NEVER seen the word "LEGOS" in any company documentation.[/rage]With that out of the way, how long until someone hacks some Technic and Mindstorms together to make a dock that unplugs your device and hands it to you?

Well, they're anal about it because they make their money off their image. You'll find those same advertising directives for almost every company that runs a campaign of any size. (I worked in advertising design... this is standard boilerplate)What I really wonder about is why the hell you care about the 'S'? I don't think even the most soulless of corporate lackeys would defend this crap outside of the office.
