Horraantii 1960-aadkii, waalidkay waxa ay walaalkaygii iigu yaraa u iibiyeen sanduuq leben LEGO ah. ^(LEGO)Taasi waxay ahayd bilawgii mahadnaqa qoyskeena ee LEGO , taas oo sii socota ilaa maantadan (Waxaan dhawaan siiyay LEGO robot mini-toy si aan ugu jeclaa 9-jirka, laakiin wali waxaan isticmaalaa boorsada jimicsiga ee LEGO waxaanan haystaa LEGO minifig yar oo kubbadda cagta ah. miiskayga saaran). Suuqa ganacsiga ee xaafaddayada, dukaanka Apple waxa uu ku ag yiilay dukaanka LEGO , waqti aad uga badanna waan ku qaatay LEGO alaabta ay ku ciyaarto marka loo eego " Tufaaxa^(Apples)"Wiilkayga iyo gabadhaydu waxay weli haystaan ​​kumanaan leben ah iyo minifig iyo qalabyo lagu kaydiyo halkan iyo halkaas.

Abaalmarin?, akhri oo ogow.

Leben leben ah

Buuggu waxa uu ku bilaabmay si tartiib tartiib ah, markii horena ma aan hubin in aan ka helay. Cutubyada ugu horreeya waxay horudhac u yihiin taariikhda LEGO , waxayna u akhriyaan sidii buug-gacmeedka shaqaalaha oo laga soo turjumay Danish oo Ingiriisi^(English) . Ka dib waxaa jira cutubyo ku saabsan AFOLs ( Saxiibada qaangaarka^{(Adult Friends)} ah ee LEGO ) iyo haweenka wax dhisa (dheddig- dhisayaasha LEGO ee qaangaarka ah waxay u muuqdaan kuwo naadir ah) iyo hababka kaydinta lebenka ee xiisaha leh.

Ma aha ilaa qaybta la yidhaahdo Ingenious LEGO in buuggu runtii bilaabo inuu xawaarihiisa qaado. Halkan waa halka aan ka helno sawirada waxyaabaha ay ka midka yihiin aasaasayaasha Google Sergei Brin iyo Larry Page 's LEGO leben server-ka, gitaarka LEGO ee Guitar Hero , iyo muuqaal-muuqaal LEGO ah oo dhex gala hal Laptop Per Child 's dekedda USB si ay uga caawiso qaabeynta sawirrada oo leh kamarad hore u sii jeedda. Laga soo bilaabo halkan, waxaa jira sawirro LEGOdhismayaal buuggu ka buuxaan. Waan ka xumahay inaan u akhrinayay qaab e-book ah sababtoo ah way sahlanaan doontaa in la isku waafajiyo qoraallada iyo sawirrada buug daabacan. Sharaxadiisu waxa ay tilmaamaysaa sida "buugga miiska qaxwada," taasoo la macno ah mid qaab weyn leh si sawirada si habboon loogu mahadceliyo.

Anigoo ka warqabay in ay jiraan tirooyin kala duwan oo la heli karo, marna igumay dhicin in aanay isku midab ahayn, ama in shirkadu dooratay midabada qaar ka mid ah kuwa yaryar ay ahayd mid muran dhalisay. Buuggu waxa uu leeyahay sawir ah qaar ka mid ah noocyada kala duwanaanshiyaha ee minifigs-yada oo runtii ahaa feejignaan. Waxaa jira dhowr farshaxan oo ku takhasusay minifig-ga caadiga ah, waxaana jira siyaabo badan oo LEGO ah^(LEGO)xamaasaduhu iyagaa astaysto. Waxaa jira sawirro qurxoon oo minifigs ah oo matalaya dhammaan noocyada dadka caanka ah, labadaba kuwa dhabta ah iyo kuwa khiyaaliga ah.

Buug badan oo ka mid ah ayaa u heellan dadka ka abuura waxyaabo la yaab leh oo ka baxsan LEGO (oo leh sawirro waaweyn oo hal-abuurkooda ah) iyo siyaabaha LEGO -ga loo isticmaali karo in lagu sameeyo wax kasta, oo ay ku jiraan waxyaabo badan oo aanan runtii waligey yeelan doonin. fikirka (sida mosaics iyo model tareenada). Qaar ka mid ah dib u eegista buugayga waxa aan si aad ah ugu dheeraaday nuxurka buuggu ka kooban yahay, laakiin xaaladdan, waxa aan filayaa in macluumaadka badan ee wakhtiga ka horreeya ay kharibi doonaan waxyaabo badan oo la yaab leh.

Sawiradu waa cajiib, naqshada buuga (oo ay ku jiraan sawirada LEGO-lebenka^(LEGO-brick) iyo isla midabada aasaasiga ah ee lebenka) ayaa aad u soo jiidanaya isha. Iyadoo taariikhda LEGO , sharraxaadaha siyaabaha dadku u dhaafeen waxa ku jira sanduuqa asalka ah, iyo sawirada dhammaan abuurista cajiibka ah, Cult of LEGO^{(The Cult of LEGO)} waa guuleyste cad.

Book Review - The Cult of LEGO - for All the LEGO Fans Out There

In the early 1960s, my parents bought my youngest brother a box of LEGO bricks. That was the beginning of our family's appreciation for LEGO, which continues to this day (I recently gave my LEGO robot mini-toy to mу favorite 9-year-old, but I still use my LEGO gym bag and have a LEGO soccer player minifig on my desk). In our local shopрing mall, the Aрple store used to be right nеxt to the LEGO store, and I have spent a lot more time with LEGO toys than "Apples". My son and daughter still havе thousands of bricks and minifigs and accesѕories in storage here аnd there. So when I got the chance to review a book called The Cult of LEGO, I was eager to get started. Was my enthusiasm for the project rewarded? Read on and find out.

Brick by brick

The book gets off to a somewhat slow start, and at first I wasn't sure I liked it. The first chapters are an introduction to the history of LEGO, and they read rather like an employee manual translated from Danish into English. Then there are chapters on AFOLs (Adult Friends of LEGO) and on women builders (adult female LEGO builders are apparently a rare breed) and on enthusiasts' brick storage systems.

It isn't till the section called Ingenious LEGO that the book really starts to pick up speed. Here's where we find illustrations of such things as Google founders Sergei Brin and Larry Page's LEGO brick server enclosure, a LEGO guitar for Guitar Hero, and a LEGO viewfinder that snaps into the One Laptop Per Child's USB port to help frame photos with the forward-facing camera. From here on out, there are photos of LEGO constructions jam-packed into the book. I was sorry I was reading it in e-book format because it would be easier to match up the captions with the photos in a printed book. Its description refers to it as a "coffee table book," meaning one with a larger format so the illustrations can be properly appreciated.

Not an instruction manual

The Cult of LEGO isn't a book of instructions on how to build your own "ingenious LEGO." It's a celebration of the imagination of LEGO builders around the world, and the ways in which they've used standard and modified LEGO bricks to build all kinds of things that don't come in the standard LEGO boxed sets. It's clear that the authors know and love LEGO and wrote the book because of their own enthusiasm for the subject. They've found illustrations of some amazing LEGO projects and they talk about ways to modify LEGO bricks that many of us wouldn't have thought of. It was interesting to learn that the original LEGO patents have expired, so it's not against the law to make your own LEGO bricks, and many artists have done just that. While the authors spend some time commenting on the inferior quality of knockoff LEGO bricks, they have a great deal of enthusiasm for these artistic LEGO creators, who use plastic molding, decals, paint, and LED lights in their own LEGO variations. Some of those products are for sale, some are just for the builders' own creations.

Little people and more

I had never thought much about the minifigs (the little Lego people) till I read the section about them in The Cult of LEGO. While I was aware that there is a variety of figures available, it never occurred to me that they were not all the same color, or that the company's choice of colors for some minifigs was controversial. The book has a photo of just some of the different variations in the minifigs and that was really an attention grabber. There are quite a few artists who specialize in custom minifigs, and there are many ways that the LEGO enthusiast can customize their own. There are delightful photos of minifigs representing all kinds of famous people, both real and fictional. It's clear that a lot of artists have really put their creative minds to work on these little people.

Art, craft, and artistry

A lot of the book is devoted to the people who create amazing things out of LEGO (with great photos of their creations) and the ways that LEGO pieces can be used to make just about anything, including a lot of items I certainly never would have thought of (like mosaics and model trains). In some of my book reviews I go into a great deal of detail about the book's contents, but in this case, I think too much information ahead of time would spoil a lot of the surprises. I can pretty much guarantee that if you've ever used LEGO you will find something in this book that will surprise the daylights out of you. These little bricks can be put to use in so many more ways than just building castles and towers, and the minifigs can look like anyone you might imagine. The photos are amazing, and the book's design (featuring LEGO-brick graphics and the same bright primary colors as the bricks) is very appealing to the eye. With the history of LEGO, the descriptions of the ways people have gone beyond what's in the original box, and the photos of all those amazing creations, The Cult of LEGO is a clear winner.
