Lego is a massive part of many people’s preadolescence because its interlocking plastic bricks make it easier for anyone to assemble the toy and construct different objects.
In fact, just like Minecraft, where you can build various kinds of things using blocks, Lego makes it possible in real life, though you need to buy a massive amount to make it possible.
Recently, rumors of Lego releasing a human anatomy set of 8k have gone viral across all social media platforms, and many wondered if the company is actually releasing it. However, the Lego human anatomy set image shared by Riccardo Zucco was AI-generated, and The Lego Group has never really created anything of this sort.
Is Lego Really Releasing a Human Anatomy Set in 8K Real?
Although the picture you found online resembles many other Lego packages, The Lego Group is not releasing a human anatomy set in 8k.
The company has never really released anything of that sort, as these toys are mainly aimed at children, so it wouldn’t be appropriate to let them assemble human body parts.
The image was shared through Facebook and Twitter via various pages and instantly went viral, given there are millions of Lego fans across the world.
If you look at the image closely, the information provided on the box feels pixelated and with errors, which would not be the case with The Lego Group as they are thorough with the packaging.
Except for the words Human Body, Lego, and 8K, no other words make sense in the image, including the package model and other specifications, meaning it is obviously a fake set.
Furthermore, The Lego Group always makes announcements whenever they bring a new product or release a pre-existing one, often through various popular franchises, to ensure the word gets out.
So, since it has not released anything related to the human anatomy set that has been going viral, the set is not authentic but rather an AI-generated image shared by an individual named Riccardo Zucco.
Nonetheless, Lego lovers took to X and posted a picture of the human anatomy set, claiming they would love to have it. On the other hand, users who were informed or figured out that it was generated by AI began commenting on the posts to make sure false information didn’t spread.
For example, an X user named @doxie_gay initially posted the image of human anatomy, which garnered 6.3 million views at the time of publication.
However, before he could contain his enthusiasm, several people clarified that it was not real and AI-generated. On the other hand, others wish it was real so they can build a literal human with Lego. Here are some notable reactions from X users:
In fact, this is not the first time that AI-generated images and posters have gone viral, so it is of utmost importance that people verify the source’s credibility before spreading it further through social media.
So, what do you think about the AI-generated human anatomy set? Do you believe The Lego Group would make something similar to it in the future?
Perhaps specifically for adults so they can have fun like they used to in childhood.
