The comments in Boing Boing say that a new Lego park is opening up about two hours north of this beach. So must be some sort of viral marketing. So that's one in Holland, one in England, and one in Florida.

The second phase of the invasion is beginning.

First, the Legobots inflitrated agents into every household on the planet. Then the leader are beamed down to "wash up" on beaches. Soon they will send the signal to the sleeper agents to begin their self assembly.

We are doomed.

8-foot-tall Lego Man washes up on Florida beach, held in custody
The 8-foot-tall, 100-pound fiberglass statue that resembles the little plastic guys that come in a Lego set was discovered bobbing gently in ankle-deep surf at the Siesta Key Beach in Florida, just before dawn on Tuesday.

The front of his shirt was emblazoned with a grammatically incorrect message: "NO REAL THAN YOU ARE." The name "Ego Leonard" was written on the back of his shirt.

Initially, some wondered if the Lego Man was a publicity stunt put on by Legoland, which recently opened a new theme park in Orlando.

But a spokeswoman for the company said that Legoland takes no credit for the stunt and is not behind it. "I wish we could say we did it, it was a brilliant guerrilla PR stunt," said Julie Estrada, the spokeswoman. A more likely explanation is that it's all part of an anonymous Dutch artist's experiment.

Google "Ego Leonard," and you'll find he has his own website, written in Dutch with some English translation.

"I am here to discover and learn about your world and thoughts," he writes. "Show me all the beautiful things that are there to admire and experience in your world. Let’s become friends, share your story with me, take me with you on a journey through beautiful meadows, words, sounds and gestures."
