Don't know how to spend a sunday? Here's an idea

Not a Toy

What is it?

Everyone can’t afford a Nissan GT-R Nismo, but you can geek out over this LEGO model instead.

Why is it cool?

LEGO makes a range, called Speed Champions, of highly desirable vehicles. They are incredibly detailed, and as anyone who grew up around LEGOs will attest to, putting them together is quite an intimate experience. What makes these special is that it retains the iconic LEGO boxy structure, but still manages to capture the design language and detail of the car. The Nissan GT-R Nismo (R35) is the latest to join the series and it doesn’t disappoint. It’s made from 298 parts and includes key details like the iconic tail-lights, the quad exhausts, large rear wing and front splitter. Even the paint scheme has been replicated to perfection. It’s a fun, easy project for a lazy day and would make a fantastic accessory to any enthusiast’s room.

HISTORY CHANNEL

When I'm around old motorcycles, I often find myself wondering what it must've been like to be born in an earlier time. Wondering, mind you, not wishing. I wonder what it was like when mankind invented the motorcycle. I wouldn't want to get anywhere near the first motorcycle, the Daimler Reitwagen (the word means 'riding car', stupidly enough), made by German inventors Gottlieb Daimler and Wilhelm Maybach in 1885. To quote Melissa Holbrook Pierson, 'The first motorcycle looks like an instrument of torture.' And something that might cause an explosion uncomfortably close to one's nether regions. Right after it's shaken loose every healed bone in one's body.
