This LEGO Block Key Light measures 2.2″ long x 1.2″ wide x .8″ tall, and it has one white [...]

Ok, this is too cool… Giant LEGO bricks that double as storage boxes. Officially licensed by LEGO, these bricks come in three different sizes (they also sell a LEGO head storage container) and several colors. You can even stack them just like the real bricks.
