No, I’m not talking about LEGO Star Wars or the multiplayer chaos that was LEGO Indiana Jones, and although I’m excited, I don’t even mean LEGO Batman which arrives on September 23rd. No folks, what we have here is a solid work of genius by LEGO architect Dan Kressin. It’s not something you’ll be able to play, but if you have any appreciation for LEGO bricks, it sure is amazing to watch. Wow!


You can find out more about LEGO Donkey Kong on his website, or hit the jump for some scandalous rear footage!*

The rear video, with accompanying arm action:


How was this project born? “During a random discussion at the April NELUG meeting, Robyn (my wife and muse) off-handedly said, “You should make Donkey Kong!” As is her way, she followed this remark with a brief musical rendition, firmly planting the idea in my skull.”

What a creative way to use LEGO Technics. Way to go indeed.

*May or may not be scandalous to post-Victorian circles.
