Man, I want one of these. I also want one those Tron controllers anounced a while back. Sexy.

Edit: Dug out a pic of the Tron Controller.

I saw the picture before reading the post and I recognised it immediately as looking TRON-related (I didn't look at the TRON logo on it either)

That looks even more awesome; can't wait for the sequel in December.

With this edition if you throw the remote at someone will it make them de-rez?

Looks a little lackluster for the greatness that is Lego.
I mean it would be great if the button were bricks with caps on them and the like.
Or even a little bit of the brainstorm series functions in there would have been awesome.
Instead its just the top piece. It looks Lego but it seems they didn't go all out for Lego awesomeness.
I can see why though. They didn't want to change it up too much, thus giving them a limited amount of room to work with.

Still, I think I'd rather gut a wiimote and build my own shell out of legos. Glue it all together and have everything lego compatible, even the buttons.

I might pick one up regardless if the pack comes with a set of legos.

One thing that bothers me though, the square buttons look a lot like the Nyko controllers.
I'm guessing it'll use third party hardware and be incompatible with homebrew, bummer.

You know it has the same price as an original

    @BigOnYa, I think that listening to the same 15 songs on the music player in my dad's car all the time made me kind of hate "normal" music.
