On the list of things that should never have existed, you'll find the robot that will more than likely be the end of humanity as we know it, the robot that sits on your shoulders and feeds you tomatoes, and this thing. This horrible, terrifying thing.
Technically, the thing has a name… It's a cosplay of what a real-life LEGO figure would look like and it's something that shouldn't ever have been questioned or brought to life. Well, maybe it should have, I'm just terrified.
Tested joined up with master special effects artist Frank Ippolito during Comic-Con to wreak havoc on the showfloor. Ippolito designed, sculpted, and painted a LEGO-inspired mask, made to look like a real-life version of a LEGO figure, which the team dubbed "creeppyfig." Then, he took to wandering around Comic-Con and getting promptly ignored by everyone… except children.
Apparently, children don't mind the huge vacant dead eyes and giant realistic LEGO hands (which had so much sweat pouring out of them like a waterfall when the suit was removed). Check it out in the video below:
