Your favourite book in Lego

[Paul Whybrow]

If you could have one of your favourite books transformed into a Lego kit, what would you choose ?

I'd rather like to see Mole, Ratty, Mr Badger, Otter, Mr Toad and the Weasels from The Wind In The Willows portrayed in plastic.

Well they already made Star Wars into a video game (a fantastic game btw). The Reacher novels. How cool would it be to see Legos flying everywhere while Reacher is punching people?

But would it be the full-sized Jack, as in the books - or the shrunk Tom Cruise version from the film? (Arguably the worst bit of miscasting in recent years)

I'm thinking it would be tiny cast. While I don't think Tom Cruise's height was a plus in his favor for the role, they did some good camera work in making him look taller. I liked the way he played Reacher; it seemed true to the character. Plus, Lee Child seemed happy with the cast. And, unfortunately, I don't think Liam Neeson would have been a good fit. But Chris Hemsworth aged a few years might have been perfect. That's about what I picture Reacher to look like.
