Hideo Kojima Is Now Hideo Lego-jima

Hideo Kojima Is Now Hideo Lego-jima
Aaron Greenbaum
April 4, 2017

Sometimes in order to be noticed by movie producers, all you need to is say something about one of their movies… and be Hideo friggin’ Kojima.

A few days ago, Hideo Kojima tweeted his movie recommendations for the month of April. These movies included Kong: Skull Island, Hardcore Henry, The Lego Batman Movie, and one movie I cannot identify because I can’t read Japanese. But before Kojima posted that tweet, he sent out a short review of The Lego Batman Movie:

It depicts deeply on his aloofness & his birth trauma. Only LEGO movie could have done for showing BATMAN's real nature. Masterpiece! pic.twitter.com/6oZes2pV3e

Iffy grammar aside, given Batman’s actions and personality in the movie, I completely agree with Kojima’s analysis. Apparently, so did WB Pictures, as few hours later, Kojima posted another tweet:

Wrote a comment on @LEGOBatmanMovie. @wbpictures has made me new 'LEGO HIDEO'. It's the movie fans of LEGO, BATMAN, DC, everyone can enjoy! pic.twitter.com/dCppRoy0tv

— HIDEO_KOJIMA (@HIDEO_KOJIMA_EN) April 3, 2017

WB Pictures was so happy with Kojima’s recommendation (and I can assure readers the movie is definitely worth seeing) that the company created a CG mockup of a Hideo Kojima Lego figure, or as I call it, Hideo Lego-jima.

As you can see, the CG figure captures Kojima’s likeness rather well.

Please Lego, for the love of your blocky, yellow-skinned, cylinder-headed, claw-handed god, make Hideo Lego-jima an actual figure. Not just for my sake, but for everyone’s sake; Hideo Lego-jima is the Lego figure the world both needs and deserves. Or at the very least, let Hideo Lego-jima cameo in The Lego Batman Movie 2.

All you have to do to get my attention is talk about video games, technology, anime, and/or Dungeons & Dragons - also people in spandex fighting rubber suited monsters.
