Minecraft is a sandbox game where you build incredible things to show off to your friends. Lego is a physical toy where you spend huge amounts of money to make something once and then display it forever, cementing your love of whatever it is you built. Ultimately, the two have creativity in common, so it's no surprise that the two worlds often meet.
It results in a plethora of cool things, like this awesome zombie design from Cirelectric on Reddit. Somehow, the smoothed out figures make the zombies kind of cute, even if they're still hunting for brains. This connection means that some people go out to build impressive things in real-life, like this Minecraft piston by RJMBricks.
YouTuber RJMBricks specialises in Lego builds, including things like an earthquake simulator and a driving sim. This time around, they have created a working Minecraft piston. This is a staggering feat of planning, brickwork, and effort. RJMBricks even uses a variety of colours to imitate the in-game version.
It is fascinating to look at the mechanics, and RJMBricks had difficulty figuring out how to make it move. Due to the heavy parts involved, Lego pieces began to warp.
The video is also very popular. RJMBricks shares that they had 38,875 subs when the video was posted on April 24. Servers The video has had over 2.2million views and the channel has more that doubled to 94.8k subscribers as of the time this article was written. It's always nice when hard work is rewarded.
If you are more interested in Minecraft-based projects than the other, you might want to take a look at this Pac-Man videogame by a YouTuber. It's quite spooky.
