The Lego MP3 player might be suitable for ages 5 years or older, but something tells me the only people that will be buying this gadget are the 30 somethings that grew up stacking these multicolored blocks.

The player sports 2GB of storage, an 8 hour rechargeable battery, LCD screen and a mini USB input.  The best part, though, is that it’s made from actual Lego pieces so you can perch it atop any preexisting Lego structure.

ThinkGeek has it on sale for $40.

Over the last couple days, I’ve seen cameras and camcorders made out of Legos, so it really doesn’t surprise me to note the new addition to the Lego electronics family, the Lego earphones.

No, seriously.  They’re called the “Sundries PLAYBRICK”, and with a name like that and a design like that you can probably already guess where they’re from.  I’ll give you a moment to let the collective facepalm die down and tell you that they’re from Japan.  That and I’ll give good odds that the name comes from some frantic lawyer’s cries of “we’re gonna get SUED if we don’t call them something different!”

You have your choice of six designer colors, and they’ll cost the equivalent of $23.  If you want nothing so much out of life as to have Lego earphones, just make your way over to Rinkya, the link to which is below.

While I think Lego needs no introduction, those of you who are fans of the building block toys will surely enjoy the imitation Lego Calculator.  It’s a shame you can’t affix any actual Legos to the number cruncher and one can only wish that the display was removable for just shits and giggles.  They’re available now in either red, green, black or blue for $27.

What else will they think of?  Lego Resident Evil?  Either way, Lego and Harry Potter fans will be happy to hear that Lego Harry Potter is officially a reality.  Just announced for sometime in 2010, the game will be brought to us via Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment and TT Games.  I’m sure it’s pretty safe to say that the game will be much like previous iterations with the license being the main selling point.  The game will also cover the first 4 Harry Potter books.  While no platforms were exactly announced, I’m sure this game will be on all of them.  Cartman would rag on this post.

You gotta be freakin’ kidding me?  Some nut created a stop-motion video of Lego characters erecting the 5,195 piece Lego Millennium Falcon.  Oh, and they didn’t just build the falcon.  No, they had Darth Vader roll in and cut off C3Po’s head and the republic attack the construction yard, all complete with light saber and blaster special effects.  Sure makes me feel lazy.

Immature, toy, retro – call it what you’d like, but just about everyone I know loves them some Lego and would probably jump at the chance to own this Lego inspired handset from Alcatel.  Based on the pics it looks like you can switch out the keypad and faceplate with different colors to suit your level of ingenuity.

Might this be the perfect compliment to the Mindstore device we saw last year?
