Seems like it is an actual thing:

And just on the off-chance your Dutch isn't quite fluent just yet, here's a bit of what it says...

"My name is Ego Leonard and I greet you from the virtual world. A world which for me stands for luck, solidarity, everything green and blooming, and without rules and restrictions. Recently, my world has been flooded with luck-seekers and those who want power. Many new meetings in my virtual world have left me very curious as to your surroundings. I am here because I thought of your world and wanted to discover and understand it. Show me all of those beautiful things which your world has to offer. Be my friend, and tell me tales, take me on your travels to beautiful landscapes, show me your words and gestures."

It's a music festival in Amsterdam:

Ego Leonard was an art installation there this year. Still doesn't explain how he randomly washed up on the beach somewhere else though. Maybe it was his one shot at freedom.

<said a stall worker. "It was a life-sized Lego toy.">

Everyday Lego toys are life-sized. This one is larger-than-life. Just wanted to clear that up.

DanaC · 08-09-2007, 11:32 AM

That's an excellent point frank.

Ego Leonard looks pissed and this scares me ... a lot.

Shawnee123 · 08-09-2007, 11:44 AM

That's interesting. So LegoMan is a wetback. They should put up a wall. That would keep the rest of those LegoMen out.

xoxoxoBruce · 08-12-2007, 03:23 PM

It's not enough of a problem to warrant a wall, yet. Just shoot them on sight.

the title of this thread makes me laugh! especially the crushing your head part, LOL! (squish)

I think that it's very significant that so many years afterwards, so many of us here get that.

DanaC · 08-13-2007, 12:20 PM

*nods* I loved that show. I loved that character. I can still hear his intonation clear as day.
