A week ago I decided that the internet needed a Lego iMac G5... Everybodies G4 iMacs look like there on a flag-pole. SO I decided to bring a life scale of the iMac G5. Hope you all like... Comment me, so I know how good It actually looks... The only thing it doesn't have is the inputs on the back...

Thanks,
iMacKid500 :D

I even made a apple remote that I forgot to stick in the pictures. Also, did anyone notice the slot-load drive on the side? I made it so you can slip a whole disc in, it's kinda a pain to get back out though... Hope you all enjoy... NEXT PROJECT: PowerBook G5 silver!

If anyone would like to give me ideas on what I should make next, I'm open to ideas... Maybe a MacPro?

Adios!

Nice job but be careful in putting in down - if you "Lego" to soon it could break. ;D

I know this is an old post but, I need Ideas, I don't think it looks like an iMac G5 any more, Does anyone have any ideas to improve?

thanks,

Well, You could make it Black and silver, but I still think it looks cool!!

You should do a macbook/macbookpro next. You could even make it open and close!!

Great work man!

Thanks, I could but I don't have silver parts; I'm in the middle of a macbookpro. I posted in another forum; a guy wants to buy it from me for $40. (stupid)

Thanks again.
