This [LEGO](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/analog-lamps-1) lamp collection may bring back memories to those days on the living room floor creating buildings and cars.

Now, thanks to Sean Kenney, you can bring back your [childhood fun](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/game-boy-set) and light up your room at the same time.

Each LEGO lamp is made to look like lathed wood and is fully functioning. The light itself is not in close enough proximity to the plastic building blocks so you don't have to worry about the LEGO lamp melting.

In addition, the LEGO itself is frozen in place using strong glue, which is a relief for anyone who's ever had a magnificent LEGO creation blasted to pieces by an inconsiderate sibling or guest!

While the LEGO lamp may bring back memories of your childhood, it'll do so with a big price tag. The lamps range from a whopping $695 to $795, making this a luxury item to say the least.
