Legos! We’re not sure why it’s acceptable — no, required — that we gadget blogs report on all things Lego, but we’re compelled to, and we’re more than happy.

The Lego site Brickshelf has unearthed a couple badass forthcoming Space Lego sets that look really fun. One’s an old-school generic spaceship, something we haven’t seen much of lately, and the other is some sort of tentacled flying skull thing with a laser on its head.

Where was this stuff when I was a kid?
