It is great looking, it never gets boring and it will be nice for the gameroom.

cool! how are they powered?

There is an (5V?) adapter connected to the blue blocks, and when you connect another block to it, that block also lights up. There is some kind of electricical contact, I suppose via the chrome (plastic) edges.

Woooooh, Spooky!  :D

At it's maximum height the lamp/sign is about 30 cm tall.

You can buy it here for instance: http://www.gadgethouse.nl/tetris-lamp-7-delig-p81290.html?gclid=CMbQ3I3CjrUCFQzKtAodGi8ANg (http://www.gadgethouse.nl/tetris-lamp-7-delig-p81290.html?gclid=CMbQ3I3CjrUCFQzKtAodGi8ANg)

Built quality is not 'German', but hey, as long as it remains out of the hands of little kids, it should be no problem.


Oeps, double post.
