AmberLeaf Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Like Sellotape, but with lego on. So you can stick it to any surface, then put lego on it! http://www.ibtimes.com/nimuno-lego-tape-where-buy-incredible-new-creation-rocked-indiegogo-2509828 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghozer Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Its not strictly, as Lego is a brand name, and the 'tape' isnt made by them... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Bloke Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Hmmm... ... OK, I'll be the first to say it then... I don't get it! It's supposed selling point is that it lets you build Lego anywhere, by creating a base that you can stick to walls and ceilings (like I'm sure every Lego enthusiast has always wanted to do). But I think I've spotted an obvious flaw here with this piece of design nonsense. Assuming it does work as described (and it's not just another way of separating the gullible from their hard-earned) then how strong must the glue be on the tape to be able to withstand the forces of gravity exerted by a substantial Lego model? And if it is up to the job, then I think the 'inventors' would make a fair few bob more by marketing the 'glue' rather than this silly gimmick.

I'm by no means a major Lego enthusiast but I think it could look really good on a wall. In a pretty pattern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's already removable / reusable glue strips/tabs/hooks etc that (I would guess) use a similar substance... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L00b Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 I'm by no means a major Lego enthusiast but I think it could look really good on a wall. In a pretty pattern. Or, for the enthusiast with time, on a ceiling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmberLeaf Posted March 24, 2017 Author Share Posted March 24, 2017 Or, for the enthusiast with time, on a ceiling I think that would freak me out a bit, lol. I meant like this : http://www.seankenney.com/shop/wall_art/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mickey finn Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 Its not strictly, as Lego is a brand name, and the 'tape' isnt made by them... I'd email GCHQ with that info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmberLeaf Posted March 26, 2017 Author Share Posted March 26, 2017 I wonder if it would look good on a wall in a pub? ---------- Post added 26-03-2017 at 06:50 ---------- Its not strictly, as Lego is a brand name, and the 'tape' isnt made by them... I'm sure that it lost it's copyright a few years back, as it expired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
