Hasta La Gadget!

Simpsons fans will be happy with this news. LEGO just announced this line of LEGO Simpsons minifigs which will release on May 4th to coincide with a special Simpsons LEGO episode on FOX.

They are $4 each. All of your favorites are here with their accessories. They look pretty awesome, with some super detail. Sadly, you can’t get the set as a whole. The figures will come blind-bagged, meaning that you don’t know who you’re getting. I hope I get Itchy and Scratchy so I can make my own demented cartoons.

I’ll probably end up getting Millhouse or Ralph Wiggum and then since I’m too cheap that will be it. Oh well. Wait, there’s no Comic Book Guy?

Fans have been waiting for the first LEGO Simpsons set and now you can watch it being built. It’s an expensive set, so maybe this is the next best thing to owning it.

This isn’t just a simple project either since this $200 set features 2,532 pieces in all. The speed-build video is about six minutes-long and there is also an 18-minute video that is basically a review of the set.

They are definitely worth watching if you are thinking about buying this set.

Everybody knows that Siri still sucks—voice recognition is one of those technologies that has to work flawlessly 100-percent of the time for it not to suck. Like in Star Trek or 2001: A Space Odyssey. Siri doesn’t, which is why The Simpsons slammed it this Sunday in an episode full of Apple references. Watch.
