Lego Man

Giant Lego man washes up on Florida beach
A giant Lego man has washed ashore on a Florida beach.
Discovered by a man taking a morning walk on the beach, the eight-foot-tall, 50 kilogram fiberglass Lego man wears a t-shirt that bears the cryptic message "No Real Than You Are" on its front and "Ego Leonard" on the back.
Originally thought to have been a viral marketing stunt from Legoland, a Dutch artist is believed to be behind the giant figurine - though whether Ego Leonard is the artist or the Lego man's name, no one is sure.
Believe it or not, he's not the first of his kind, either - other Lego figurines washed up on beaches in Holland and England in 2007 and 2008.

What do you know about the artist pressumed to have made him?
What connections does the Lego man have with another Lego event?
