Lego has just started to get into the gadget world, issuing a whole bunch of electronic items such as MP3 players and digital camera in the trademark Lego brick design. But this isn’t Lego’s first foray into electronics. Back in 1989 Lego and Tyco issued the Lego Phone. The Lego Phone was a working landline phone with ring and pulse tone switches. The fully functional desk phone had brick buttons and you could add one any Lego bricks you wanted to design your own phone style. Fun old school phone.

You can buy Lego Phone on eBay relatively cheap these days.

[...] The device had traditional features like ring and pulse tone switches, but it also allowed users to build on the phone itself using bricks stored in a drawer that pops out the side. The good news is that if your Mom didn’t want this thing in her house back in those days, you can still grab one today for a decent price on eBay. [eBay via CraziestGadgets] [...]

This was NOT a Lego product. Tyco blocks were a rip off/copy of Lego brand blocks.

so, while it may look similar, its NOT Lego.

Lego products have the word Lego on every stud, which rip offs like tyco and mega blocks do not have.
