Sunglasses = cool. Lego = nerdy. Combining the two would clearly seem to be a recipe for destruction, a physics faux-pas on the same level as crossing the streams or shaking hands with your anti-matter doppelganger. But in reality, the combo actually works, and the universal clock continues to tick.

The thing we like best about the Lego shades is the opportunity for customization. Those bobbled arms could easily be modded to hold laser-pointers, cameras or any other geeky device. The sunnies are a collaboration between Lego itself and the online specs retailer Lynx Optique. The only thing they really need is a Cylon/KITT-style sweeping light across the top. Just sayin' it would be cool, is all.
