The science of LEGO

The hell with the "Big Bang Theory" set! This is the real deal here! Especially with my favorite, Margaret Hamilton! (The black and white photo and greyscaled LEGO minifig set.)

Science and LEGO are very much a natural compliment to one another. Not a surprise considering the science involved in making the masterful model menagerie making aspects of the LEGO brick.

But one lady, Maia Weinstock, is proposing the creation of a female LEGO minifigure set through the Ideas site that LEGO utilizes to help launch fan concepts.The women included in this set are all movers and shakers that were at NASA.

As toy collectors, we know that often there is a dearth of great role models of women in toy format. It's getting better, but it's awesome to see ideas like this laid out and thought up.

If you are interested in finding out about the project and supporting it with your vote, please head over to the LEGO Ideas site and do so.
