LEGO Millenium Falcon Cheeseburger



Artist Angus MacLane made Corellian Cheeseburger -- a Millennium Falcon-type vessel. Except that it's a cheeseburger made out of LEGOs.

You can view more images at the link, including a R2 unit that appears to be modeled after the McDonald's mascot The Grimace.

Bit of an irrelevant nitpick, but whenever I read a US article on LEGO, I always feel a bit wierded out by the way you say that it's made of legoS - with the plural needing an s. In the UK, I don't think anybody uses that - we all have the plural of lego as lego. You might say lego bricks, but we'd just say that the admittedly cool model is made of lego.

From the starwars.com databank:
"The Millennium Falcon was not always elliptical in shape. Its original design was much more rocket-like, with a symmetrical, somewhat cylindrical body leading up to the characteristic cockpit up front. During Star Wars' production, however, a similar design appeared in the television show "Space: 1999." Rather than appear as an imitator, George Lucas called for the original Falcon design to be retooled as the Rebel blockade runner.
The new Falcon design was instead based off of Lucas' favorite food. Lucas would later say that the Falcon was inspired by a hamburger, with the outrigger cockpit being an olive off to the side."
