Lego just became more violent side thanks to BrickGun, an independent company that is now selling Lego kits to build structures resembling real guns. The guns can't really fire, but they do look pretty menacing and a tad realistic.
“We are the world leader in custom Lego weapon models," BrickGun says. "We specialize in creating the coolest, most realistic kits that can be built using genuine Lego parts. Each model is life-sized, with accurate dimensions and details. They feature functioning mechanics such as triggers, hammers, slides, safeties and magazines so they not only look like the real thing, they work like the real thing as well."
The limited edition MP5 has already been sold out, but lots of the other handguns are still available. Kits range from $40 to $60.
