The LEGO Group and Brickstructures, Inc. are going to produce and distribute Frank Lloyd Wright Collection® LEGO® Architecture Building Sets. The Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation announced that The LEGO Group is now the exclusive licensed manufacturer of Frank Lloyd Wright Collection® LEGO Architecture sets. The LEGO Group and Adam Reed Tucker of Brickstructures, Inc. officially introduced the LEGO Architecture line in 2008. The line currently consists of six buildings – now including two of Frank Lloyd Wright’s most famous and recognizable buildings, the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum and “Fallingwater.” With models developed in collaboration with architects, LEGO Architecture works to inspire future architects, engineers and designers as well as architecture fans around the world with the LEGO brick as a medium. Builders of all ages can now collect and construct their favorite worldwide architectural sites through these artistic replicas. Both exclusive Frank Lloyd Wright LEGO Architecture sets contain booklets that feature traditional building instructions along with exclusive archival material and photographs of each iconic building. The LEGO Group released the first of the LEGO Architecture Frank Lloyd Wright Collection® sets at the opening of the Frank Lloyd Wright Exhibit: From Within Outward at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum on May 15, 2009. See more on Lego's site: http://parents.lego.com/en-us/LEGOAndSociety/LEGO%C2%AE%20Architecture.aspxSee the models on Brickstructure's site: http://www.brickstructures.com/0ConstructionSets.html

I can't stand Power Miners! The color scheme looks like it came from a pasta salad, the monsters are more cute then they are menicing (BTW, how do you do spell check on this thing?), the wheels remind me of Mega Bloks and have no grip at all, and it feels like a dumbed down version of Rock Raiders. Anyway, back on topic. The set on the left is the one that got my attention:  I'm gonna get that one for sure!

Spellcheck was disabled because SMF was having issues with it... And the one on the left is my favorite too.

I'd seen the original Lego Architecture sets (like jamesster posted) some time ago - but the Frank Lloyd Wright connection is new. The Fallingwater set is really neat. But then - I like Frank Lloyd Wright's work.

btw tell whoever did it this from me, Jade. --> Learn to spell. Tim? Giving someone grammar advice? Welcome to the Twilight Zone...... Lemme go poke him and we'll find out. =P But to avoid confusion, you did not spam Indy. Your nomination just needed another reason. It was more on-topic than most of the posts made by staff in this topic. =P do i think he should leave? no. but i do think he needs a good smack upside the head.

That's a different sets. I'm pretty sure it's a creator set, but I know what set you are talking about.

I imagine new people coming to the forum expecting to see discussion about LEGO, only to see RPGs full of deranged characters and insane people talking about cheese and brains.
I'm beet. I don't think I'll do homework tonight.
So, you're a vegetable?
