If you’re like me you grew up playing with LEGOs and probably later in life played chess. Well I actually had the original LEGO Mindstorm set and I loved that thing to no end. Some dudes over at Team Hassen have built the ultimate combination of both. They’ve made a fully playable monster chess set using the LEGO Mindstorm set. How dang awesome is this thing? Check out the videos.
