We’ve featured plenty of things made from or inspired by Lego, but none has appealed to me quite as much as the Classic in Lego series of photographs.

Lego does Frank Lloyd Wright’s Robie House
The next group of Lego Architecture sets has just landed, with the highlight for us being Frank Lloyd Wright's Robie House. Yes, you can build it yourself.
Lego 1960s Volkswagen T1 Camper Van
I know we featured the Space Shuttle set the other day, but we think this Lego 1960s Volkswagen T1 Camper Van tops even that.
Lego Space Shuttle Expedition set
It might have ceased flying this year, but the Space Shuttle will always be an icon of the 80s, when it changed the face of space travel. It could change the face of a wet Sunday afternoon too if you invest in the Lego Space Shuttle Expedition set, especially if you have kids to entertain.
Yes, you can recreate the craft, with a Lego version standing at standing 44cm tall and around 25.5cm from wing tip to wing tip. The model features realistic engines, retractable landing gear, an opening cockpit with seats for two astronauts, opening cargo compartment with a crane that can hold the satellite and a ground maintenance vehicle. There are also three minifigures – one male, one female and a service crew member.
All of which needs building, which might be trickier than you imagine. if you want it, you can buy it from the online Lego store for £81.99.
Lego Boombox now available to order
It's taken longer than expected from launch, but you can now order the Lego Boombox in the UK.
yes, it's a sound system inspired by everyone's favourite plastic brick, able to play your CDs as well as offering AM and FM radio and capable of connecting to your MP3 player, so you can use it as an external speaker. There's also 'bass boost', should you want a meatier sound from the little player and a digital screen for tuning. Those little studs on top double up as controls too.
Available to order now, £49.99 is the price.
Lego Drinks Bottle
There is no shortage of products out there for the Lego aficionado, the latest of which is this Drinks Bottle.
We've had storage bricks, storage heads, torches and lunch boxes and whilst some may be suffering from Lego fatigue, the classic style and block colours have some mileage yet.
This latest addition to the range is these colourful plastic bottles with Lego figure heads as the bottle top, which will certainly brighten up a packed lunch or picnic. In addition they are phtalate and bisphenol free making them a safer option to store your beverage in.
You can pre-order the bottles from Firebox here.
