Many scenes, people and characters have been recreated with LEGO, but now thanks to Adly Syairi Ramly, there are LEGO bands. The Malaysian blogger has created a set of 20 iconic music bands in LEGO.
The groups are from all different decades and genres; The Beatles, in black-block suits and bowl cut heads, are from the 60s and pop boy band N'Sync is from the 90s. Other groups include the Sex Pistols, Green Day, Incubus, Beastie Boys and The Red Hot Chilli Peppers.
Adly takes all the photos and edits them with nothing more than his iPhone 5. The building-block images have had viral success so Adly is said to be creating more. He posts them to his Twitter so stay tuned. What do you think he will create next -- Maybe some girl bands?
