[Video Link] Todd Wilder has made a smaller version of the Lego Mystery Box (which I posted about in February). To open it, you have to pull on pieces in a specific order.

He's hoping to get enough votes at Cuusoo that Lego will sell it as a kit.

      Or you know, assuming he didn’t glue the black pieces together, just pull the roof off.
