The Cacodemon from Doom is an oddly shaped circular beast that doesn't seem like it would lend itself to Legos, but Bart De Dobbelaer went for it anyway.

In Doom 2's instruction booklet, this is how the Cacodemon is described: "They float in the air, belch ball-lightning, and boast one Hell of a big mouth. You're toast if you get too close to these monstrosities." This one looks a little more friendly, but still intimidating.

It's pretty neat. Our generation comes up with some things that are flat out crazy.

I like how informative the article is. Might as well just been, "Hey, this guy made a Cacodemon out of Legos. Look at it."

I just realized that Lego Doom would be fantastic.

EDIT: So would Lego Metroid.

You could probably make anything from LEGOs at this point. In fact, why doesn't Team Ninja use LEGOs for their next DoA game? Then the characters will at least look mildly realistic! Snark aside, this is really cool. I wish I could do this sort of thing with my LEGOs, but I'd need to practice a good bit. It's been so long...

That's pretty sick.

Building demons with Legos is the gateway activity for demon summoning.

badass! One of the best Demons in the Doom series.
