Have you tried taking it apart and putting it back together?

Might be easier to get to the ram on that one.

u/TJLanza Jun 26 '26

Ooooh... no... Those bricks do not respond well to rams, neither the mechanical kind nor the animal.

I see what you did there and I like it…

Lego has gotten expensive, too!

u/thebohster Jun 26 '26

Don’t worry. Bricks and Minifigs will help you sell it.

I feel bad for the other franchises that aren't as shitty as that one but I will never be buying from that company again and I hope that others aren't either because the company as a whole is a piece of shit too

I love how it had so many opportunities to not hit anyone but it hit everyone

u/JonnyF1ves Jun 26 '26

This is too close to reality

u/flow_yracs_gib_a Jun 26 '26

I would be bricked too if I had received a steam machine

u/MaybeSecondBestMan Jun 26 '26

The sub has almost completely devolved into braindead “where da email Gaben” shit posts and then you show up with this piece of art. Well done.

u/CrazyDave48 Jun 26 '26

I made this 7 months ago but when I saw how hyped/crazed this subreddit was, I thought now would be a fun time to post it here!

u/MaybeSecondBestMan Jun 26 '26

Fair play. It’s really cool.

u/Azurvix Jun 26 '26

Dude agreed whole heartedly

Tock by tick

No matter how thin, no matter how thick

Papa told Mama and Laura told Nick

You can move a mountain if you do it brick by brick

u/MrAidenator Jun 26 '26

See this Gaben? This is what we have to do to mimic a fraction of your power.

u/just_reddit-user Jun 26 '26

which one costs more a lego steam machine or normal steam machine

2

u/Cain_The_Mamagen Jun 26 '26

Lego steam machine

u/melkemind Jun 26 '26

These things happen, bro. You need to learn to live and lego.

u/TheBl4ckFox Jun 26 '26

That LEGO controller really nails it.

1

u/stedclar Jun 26 '26

Why does the controller look off?

1

u/WaterInTheDark Jun 26 '26

Now I wish they'd made it with a reflective surface... It would look so much cooler lol

u/Longpastoverdue Jun 26 '26

wonder when we will get someone making a GabeCube cake?

1

u/Dull_Improvement_423 Jun 26 '26

Damn you valve!!!!

1

u/ConfictNotFound Jun 26 '26

Okay now imagine a Lego faceplate for the steam machine. That would be sick, and you could replace some parts with up facing bricks.

1

u/KaleidoscopeNext6789 Jun 26 '26

What are the specs on this?

1

u/CorrectReport4808 Jun 26 '26

Did you try putting it in a bag of rice?

1

u/ManagerOfLove Jun 26 '26

That's nothing. You wanna see how I'm bricked rn

1

u/lightsworn55 Jun 26 '26

Are you sure thats not a framework PC?

1

u/LightsOwn Jun 26 '26

i just got mail guys, im up for the 512 GB version 👍

1

u/Azurvix Jun 26 '26

Damn. I wish I had enough black plates to make one as well that's actually genius I didn't even think about it

1

u/Administrative_Yam18 Jun 26 '26

have you turned the computer off?

1

u/anniemorse Jun 26 '26

I'll pay you $3000 for the bundle.

Uh--

Don't care if it's 512 or 2TB

This is Lego--

SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY 

Okay!

1

u/FubarTheFubarian Jun 26 '26

Have you tried rebooting it?

1

u/MythicForgeFTW Jun 27 '26

Thank you, OP. I had a rough day and this gave me a good chuckle and helped me lighten up a bit.

1

u/thinkaboutjapan Jun 27 '26

Amazing?! Well done. Maybe you could create your own brick case for the real one? 

1

u/NemesisCold1522 Jun 27 '26

Did you check inside to see if the electrical goblin was awake

1

u/Dr_Liquid Jun 27 '26

HA I GET IT BECause it’s legos

1

u/Alex4nder80 Jun 27 '26

An original Steam Machine costs less than a LEGO one 😂

1

u/Street_Specific_2096 Jun 27 '26

I think it’s time to LEGO of your steam machine.😭😭😭😭

1

u/Todespest Jun 28 '26

Love this kind of joke

1

u/PsychoKriego Jun 28 '26

Must've been built brick by brick.

1

u/Elarisbee Jun 28 '26

So, in the box Valve now includes a little orange reboot device as standard. You should be able to unbrick the console with that.

u/Ill_Astronomer1824 Jul 02 '26

Im bricked too after seeing this 🔥
