Lego reproduction of Nord synth cuter than original

Behold the very much-paralleled beauty of LEGO: if this NordLead Modular synth were its own product rather than a derivative, it could hardly be sexier. Also: does not cost $1,600.

Just two corrections from a synth head.

The exact title of the synth is the "Nord Modular" in keyboard version as opposed to rack mounted. The "Nord Lead" is a different kind of synth.

Also since the Nord Modular Keyboard you are showing here is the original "G1" version from 1996 and not the new current $1600 "G2" version......the price you would pay for one of the original G1 versions (now discontinued) is actually much more reasonable. I have seen them used for $450-600.

Very cool. I have the utmost love for Nord synths, and Legos (Lego, Lego Bricks, to appease those folks...) so this is... spectacular, really!
