If you're not familiar with PodBrix, like me, then you'll need to know that it's a Maryland-based Web site that sells "minifigs" (aka small, plastic Lego people) inspired by popular music player ads. Tomi, the creator, has designed many limited editions of minifigs, such as the 1K Brix Macrofig that stands over 7 inches tall, and the Wozwear 6502 Shirt showing Woz holding an actual 6502 processor chip.

Why are Tomi's creations so cool? Because who doesn't like Legos! Plus, each minifig is sold in limited quantities and they sell fast.

Going on sale tonight at 9 pm EST is the 1984 Playset ($198.99). Inspired by the classic 1984 Apple TV commercial ("We Shall Prevail!"), this limited set was designed with over 80 parts and includes "an intricately detailed 'runner' minifig, two riot police minifigs and an audience of twelve figures...A static LED backlit movie screen complete with a minifig style 'Big Brother' completes the effect."

I have to say, it's a fairly accurate portrayal of the commercial! PodBrix will sell only 100 units, so get your mouse finger ready. Three AA batteries are required to power the LED screen.

The site doesn't offer much more information than what I've told you about the 1984 Playset, other than some answers to FAQs:

What are the concrete side-walls constructed from?

The walls are made from heavy card stock printed with a concrete pattern.

Will you ship the 1984 Playset internationally?

Yes. We ship via standard Air Mail to almost any country. Shipping rates will be listed during checkout.

Thanks to Ben Gottesman for the tip!!
