Looking for a unique pair of plugs? How about Lego bricks? brick earphones 1

We’re not sure when or how this started, but ever since portable audio players have been out, accessory makers have been trying to out-crazy each other by trying to come out with “unique” designs that range from downright cool and stylish to questionably fashionable and just plain tacky. But where do you rate these? In case it wasn’t obvious enough, this set is the Brick Earphone, a $10 earphone set that’s designed to look like Lego bricks.

For the price, we’re not expecting superior sound quality. The website doesn’t say anything about quality either, which ironically says something, but the Lego brick concept does sound intriguing. Not the design, mind you, but if there are people out there looking at this right now thinking that Lego-shaped earphones are considered “must-haves.”

But hey, ten bucks for a pair of earplugs shaped like Lego bricks? It’s definitely up there on the unique scale. They’re available now in five colors; black, blue, green, pink and red.
