How often has this ha🍰ppened to you? You're sitting there, playing the latest Need for Speed game and trash-talking all the competition,but thenyouhave a sudden urgeto stop playing andconstruct your own NFS vehicles with buildable block sets. Well lucky you - that urge will soon be satiable.

Thanks to a new partnership between EA and MEGA Brands, Need for Speed-themed MEGA Bloks - which are like LEGO blocks, onlyless-swallowable in their larger forms- will s▨oon be coming to a store near you.

MEGABrands "chief innovation officer" Vic Bertrand is excited about the new partnership, saying i🅘n a statement, "Whether it's realistic driving games or over-the-top car pursuits, Need for Speed has attracted millions of followers wor𓃲ldwide... We look forward to bringing this world to life through MEGA Bloks by offering fans an action-packed building experience."

Because nothing screams out action quite like attaching blo🤡cks to each other.

This also makeꦗs us excited about other potential merchandising opportunities for EA. We expect FIFA vuvuzelas, Crysis dolls, and Tiger Woods... toys... to be introduced stat.
