To celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Lego minifig, they’ve come out with 7 celebrity versions. They won’t be available to the public, however- which is probably for the best as they are sure to scare children and adults alike.

The Amy Winehouse minifig actually looks good, for her, but then again it’s hard to express “I’m a nasty crackhead” in the minifig medium. The Madonna one is emphasizing her mannishness to a frightening degree, and furthermore, why aren’t either of them wearing any pants?

The Angelina Jolie minifig is especially freaky, as she looks crazy evil and not at all hot, and is wearing weird holster thingies to boot. Loving the babies though, although the count (not to mention the ethnicities) are not quite correct. Brad is not looking too hot either, but instead rather like a homeless guy.

You can check out the full set although unless you hail from the UK or spend loads of time watching the BBC you may not recognize the remaining celebrities.

    I think I know why they are so disconcerting. They’re pink, not the classic minifig yellow.
