Lego products getting ‘more violent’

Despite being a hit with children and parents across the globe, Lego is apparently more violent and stuffed full of dangerous weapons than it has ever been.

Researchers from the University of Canterbury in New Zealand claim that the building brick products are less “innocent” than they used to be.

They say that more war-like scenarios were being featured in theme kits and weapons were now commonplace in 30% of kits.
