Specially formed ice cube trays that allow you to create accurate Lego blocks from water ice when filled and frozen. Design allows for a little swelling, about 4%, as the water freezes and expands.
Just little guys, not like the similar but massive Lego-shaped Ice Mold. These make you work fast
and accurately to get your Star Wars Battlecruiser, etc.
Comes with an exclusive range of coloured flavouring agents, in case you decide to eat your creation before it melts.

The linked ice cube tray doesn't yield stackable bricks. You'd need a tray with a cover to produce the internal shape of each brick, then you'd have to overcome the problem of expansion as water freezes, whilst maintaining the tight tolerances required for lego bricks to lock together. |

Did you actually read the second sentence of the first paragraph? |

I originally envisaged moulds that would allow you to make most of the 7000 block designs (down from 13,000 in 2005) that make up the 29 billion per year they turn out. |

That there is one imperfect design is immaterial. Snapping them together could be done more easily with a hair dryer and a blast freezer. |

Whats with this obsession with Lego?
What about Jello Lego, Steel Lego or Pannacotta Lego.
Organic Lego?
Recycled tire Lego? |
