Guy Builds LEGO BFG-9000 From ‘Doom’
ZaziNombies LEGO Creations is a YouTube channel that builds awesome creations, mostly from video games, using nothing but LEGO blocks. From weapons seen in Call of Duty to creatures from Minecraft, Zazi shows incredible care and attention to detail for each of the projects. And for his latest endeavor, he’s picked one of the most powerful handheld weapons to appear in video game history: the BFG-9000 from Doom!
Now, Zazi has chosen to recreate the original BFG, the one from id Software’s 1993 classic FPS shooter that ended up revolutionizing and defining the genre. Dubbed in the 2005 film adaptation as the “Bio Force Gun”, all video game players know it by its real name: the “Big Fucking Gun”, which might be the most accurate name for a weapon in the history of video games. Honestly, I think that name even beats out total descriptors like “iron sword” or “wooden shield”. What kind of sword, huh? Oh, is that oak or maple? Get outta here and give me my big fucking gun!
Check out the above video to see the LEGO weapon “in action”! Once you’re done giving it a view, why not tell me your favorite Doom weapon in the comments below?
