* One ad for the Honda Element featured the car being built from the ground up using {{LEGO}}s. (Well, Mega Bloks technically, but the effect is the same.)

* The WesternAnimation/ZigAndSharko episode, "Silly Builders" has Zig using Legos ''(never identified by name)'' to get to Marina.

[[AC: {{Literature}}]]
* SophiesWorld calls LEGO "the most ingenious toy in the world," due to its ability to nigh-endlessly be built into something, destroyed, and then built again into something else much like the Greek philosopher Democritus thought with his version of atoms.

[[AC:RealLife]]
* [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legoland Legoland]]; theme parks featuring extensive LEGO sculptures and displays. Anything that isn't built out of LEGO bricks (such as rides) uses a LEGO design motif.
* There is ''LEGO CANDY.''
* However, subverted in some places where LEGO products ''aren't'' made with the iconic bricks. The LEGO Technic line uses construction based on things like pins, axles, and ball-joints instead, and their "constraction" figure lines ("construction" + "action") like ''{{BIONICLE}}'' and ''HeroFactory'' started out as a spin-off of Technic.
** Also strangely averted with fast-food tie-ins. Many LEGO Happy Meal toys these days are your standard throwaways, with no interactivity with the LEGO system. (LEGO Club Magazine editor (and ''BIONICLE'''s [[MyRealDaddy "Real Daddy"]]) Greg Farshtey has mentioned that fast-food chains have started to shy away from building toys because they want no assembly required.)

** KingdomOfLoathing presents: [[http://kol.coldfront.net/thekolwiki/index.php/BRICKO_brick the BRICKO™ Brand Funucational Construction System Core Unit]]! You can build weapons, armor, even [[http://kol.coldfront.net/thekolwiki/index.php/BRICKO_gargantuchicken giant chickens]] out of them!

Also, don't step on them while barefoot. [[AgonyOfTheFeet It hurts like hell]].

** And there is the [[http://s191.photobucket.com/albums/z232/Misasura/?action=view¤t=LDDScreenShot20.png Mossberg 590]].

* At least [[http://www.youtube.com/user/misterx1988 one YouTube user]] has posted LEGO re-creations of classic {{game show}}s.
** And [[http://www.youtube.com/user/Thorn2200 another YouTube user]] has posted LEGO animations of Eddie Izzard jokes!

* GrandTheftAuto: [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EMY9VlMIEJk LEGO City]]

** Also it couldn't have just been glued together for the video as the Mythbusters had to clear out the LEGO Group's North American supply and also borrow some from a private collector to have enough bricks to finish the build. Completely impossible for most people to have the required number of LEGO bricks for that video to be real.

* ''FabulandHousewives'' is [[DesperateHousewives Desperate Housewives]] [-[[InSpace WITH ANTHROPOMORPHIC LEGO ANIMAL CHARACTERS!]]-]

* {{Grand Theft Auto}}: [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EMY9VlMIEJk LEGO City]]

* [[http://cakewrecks.blogspot.com/2009/05/sunday-sweets-legos.html LEGO cakes, including edible ones, anyone]]?
* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9OMB0wp_D4E&feature=fvst "Knights of the Round Table"]] from ''MontyPythonAndTheHolyGrail'' in Lego!

* ''{{Roblox}}'' is a free [[BribingYourWayToVictory (well... sorta)]] MMO where almost every single bit of content is user-made, there is almost unlimited customizability, and uses bricks, meshes, and [=GUI=]s (Guided User Interface). It also features the scripting language of Lua, which can be used to create almost anything within the user's scripting capability.

* Subverted in the LOGO channel's ''RickAndSteve''. While the original pilot episode used LEGO, the rest of the series had to use Play Mobil because LEGO objected to the creators using their product on the show (which [[WhatDoYouMeanItsNotForKids may look like a kiddie show that would air on Nick Jr., but really isn't]]).

* Subverted in ''RickAndSteve: The Happiest Gay Couple In All The World''. While the original pilot episode used LEGO, the rest of the series had to use Play Mobil because LEGO objected to the creators using their product on the show.

* SUBVERTED! ''RickAndSteve'' use Play Mobil.
* Blockoland from ''TheSimpsons'', which appears at the start of the episode where Homer deliberately starves himself to save Springfield's baseball team from being sold. Interestingly enough, an ''actual'' LEGOLand appears in another episode which mentioned Mr. Burns dumping toxic waste there.

* The boss stages in the [[CompilationRerelease ''Super Mario All-Stars'']] version of ''SuperMarioBros2'' for some reason all appear to be made from red, green, and blue blocks resembling LEGO bricks.

* A slew of LEGO-themed video games have been released over the years, most recently as [[LegoAdaptationGame tie-ins with other franchises]], like ''LEGO StarWars'', ''LEGO IndianaJones'', or even ''LEGO {{Batman}}'' and ''LEGO Literature/HarryPotter''. Even stranger, these games are actually ''fun''. It may be worth pointing out that The LEGO Group produces tie-in building sets for all these franchises - the video games are an extension of the license.

** ''LEGOUniverse'', an [[MassivelyMultiplayerOnlineRolePlayingGame MMORPG]] set in the LEGO world, has been scheduled for release.[[hottip:*:[[TooGoodToLast And is now scheduled to be shut down January 31st 2012.]]]] [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QU9bUVoZfYA The trailer]] alone is a CrowningMomentOfAwesome.
*** A conceptual video has been released which shows Lego-style character creation, obligatory model building in the Workshop, an epic HailfirePeaks CityOfAdventure, and a battle with a {{Mook}} called a [[NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast Darkling]].[[http://kotaku.com/gaming/exclusive/the-lego-universe-trailer-271566.php Watch the concept video here]].

** And now there's LEGO ''RockBand'', where you can demolish buildings using ThePowerOfRock.
*** With the added bonus of playing as LEGO Iggy Pop, LEGO DavidBowie, and [[CrowningMomentOfAwesome LEGO]] ''{{Queen}}''.

* ''{{Mythbusters}}'' tested the veracity of a viral video in which some guys built an eight-foot diameter ball out of LEGO and successfully rolled it down a street in San Fransisco. [[spoiler: The myth was Busted; the LEGO ball collapsed halfway down the hill.]] So that means it must've been glued together or the same sequence was repeated in the video.

** TranquilityBase

** Webcomic/TranquilityBase

* [[{{Transformers}} ''KRE-O: Transformers'']], which according to TFWiki is not built entirely by plastic bricks whose name starts with an "L"!

** Also notable is ''{{BIONICLE}}''. Like the above, it's from The LEGO Group itself, so of ''course'' Everything's Built With LEGO pieces - but in a radical departure, the iconic bricks are almost completely absent; it started as a spin-off of their Technic line, so the building is based on stuff like pins, axles, and ball-joints instead.
