# Musical Building Block Characters Jake Meier Creates a LEGO Version of the Digital Duo Daft Punk By Michael Hemsworth | Published 2013-05-11 | Life-Stages Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jake-meier References: [designyoutrust](http://designyoutrust.com/2013/05/lego-daft-punk/) & [autorazr.tumblr](http://autorazr.tumblr.com) Daft Punk doesn't have their own [LEGO](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pioneer-cdj-2000-nexus) characters available for purchase, but Jake Meier AKA "autorazr" has created custom, miniature versions of the [digital music duo](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/daft-punk-1) that are simply fantastic. The little characters that Meier has designed come dressed in their signature leather jackets and -- of course -- their digital robot helmets. Additionally, the characters also have custom DJ equipment that Meier also made using [LEGO building blocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lego-ideas-eras-tour-poster). Fans of the music duo and LEGO alike are sure to be delighted by Meier AKA autorazr's creation that is sadly not available for purchase. The artist, however, is encouraging fans to share the creation, let their opinion be heard and support if they can to get the Daft Punk characters made into purchasable pieces that come in a proper LEGO set. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.4/10 - Popularity: 43% | Activity: 51% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Gen Alpha, Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Life-Stages](https://www.trendhunter.com/life-stages) > [Toys](https://www.trendhunter.com/toys) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Custom LEGO Creations:** Opportunity for artists and designers to create and sell custom LEGO characters and accessories. - **Merchandise Collaboration:** Potential for collaboration between musicians and toy companies to create limited-edition collectible items for fans. - **Fan-driven Product Development:** Opportunity to crowdsource ideas and support from fans to bring niche products to market. ### Where This Applies - **Toy Manufacturing:** Companies can explore partnerships with artists to create unique and customizable collectible toys. - **Music Merchandise:** Musicians can expand their merchandise offerings by collaborating with toy manufacturers to create unique collectibles. - **Crowdfunding Platforms:** Crowdfunding platforms can be used to gauge interest and fund the production of niche products like custom LEGO creations. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Intricate DJ LEGO Sets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pioneer-cdj-2000-nexus.md) - [Puppet-Inspired Building Block Figures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lego-muppets-minifigures.md) - [Reimagined Toy Block Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lego-lofi-girl.md) - [Music Video Playsets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lego-ideas-bts-dynamite.md) - [Trophy-Inspired Puzzle Bricks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gramophone.md) - [Rocket Set Block Puzzles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/over-the-moon.md) - [Vintage Puzzle Gramophones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lego-gramophone.md) - [Nightclub Building Block Sets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lego-icons-jazz-club.md) - [Block Puzzle Carnival Masks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/masquerade-mask-1.md)
