Lego - both an amazing, fun toy that encourages kids to be creative as well as a deadly weapon equal to a landmine when you step on it. Lego has a bunch of amazing themes. Here are the top twelve.
12. Lego Bionicle - This was a thing for a while, remember? It was a Lego toy with a plot and all those crazy Polynesian-sounding names. Now it's not anymore.
11. Lego Lord of the Rings - There is nothing special about this movie tie-in Lego line other than it gives me an excuse to put up the Legless Lego Legolas meme. And there it is. Enjoy.
10. Lego Ninjago - I know nothing about this other than seeing the ads for the coming movie. It looks wacky and funny or something, right? Let's not go crazy Lego. You already released Lego Batman earlier this year. Do we absolutely need two Lego movies a year?
9. Lego Super Heroes - Previously a number of comic book movies came out and Lego put out individual toy lines for them. Lego Batman, Lego Spider-Man, and so on. Finally they created a line just called "Super Heroes" and merged them all together - Marvel and DC alike. Nifty.
8. Lego Architecture - This is the one where you build the Empire State Building and Eiffel Tower and all that. Pretty cool.
7. Lego Technic - Technic has been around since the 70s and is still going strong. It was a little different and unique with all those gears and stuff. Yeah, gears!
6. Lego City - Another long-lasting line, starting out way back in the day as "Lego Town" before it was upgraded into a city. This is where you get the building sets, the police vehicles, construction trucks, etc.
5. Lego Star Wars - Landing the rights to Star Wars in 1999 was a major score for Lego. I'm sure it had something to do with Kenner being on the way out after it was bought out and merged into Hasbro. People could finally make tie fighters, the death star, the Millennium Falcon, and all those great fun things. It also led to the Lego Star Wars video game series.
4. Lego Castle - This was the awesome medieval set with all the knights, horses, catapults, castles, and that dude who looked just like Robin Hood but they wouldn't call "Robin Hood" and instead called "Forestman." Why? It's not like Robin Hood is under some sort of copyright. It's public domain. Let him be Robin Hood! Discontinued in 2014 because Lego is stupid for some reason.
3. Lego Creator - Creator is awesome because it's a little bit of everything. Buildings, cars, animals, and all sorts of bricks for random things to be... you know... creative. It's sort of the basic Lego set, and actually replaced what was "Lego Basic."
2. Lego Space - Another one that got discontinued. WHAT?! How the hell does Lego get rid of Lego Space? With the awesome astronaut with that cool logo. The space shuttles, oxygen tanks, moon buggies, space command centers, space police, etc. Is it because of Lego Star Wars? Forget that, it's just a branded theme. Space was their own thing and it was awesome.
1. Lego Pirates - Clearly the greatest ever. Lego Pirates had pirates and pirate ships and cannons and parrots, and all that good stuff. Is it stupidly discontinued too? Of course it is. Something tells me I need to go to Denmark and smack some Lego people in their stupid faces to make them bring the pirates back. Or better yet I'll make those scurvy seadogs walk the plank.
12. Lego Bionicle - This was a thing for a while, remember? It was a Lego toy with a plot and all those crazy Polynesian-sounding names. Now it's not anymore.
