Mystery surrounds the appearance of a giant Lego man on a beach in Brighton, England.
The 1.8m (6ft) tall red, green and yellow figure with the slogan "No Real Than You Are" painted on its front, was spotted on the beach by a local resident whilst walking to work on 29 October.
In August 2007 a giant Lego toy, bearing a close resemblance to the
Brighton figure, mysteriously appeared on Zandvoort beach in the
Netherlands.
The blue and yellow figure was pulled out of the sea and bore the same slogan "No Real Than You Are".
A Lego spokeswoman said: "This giant Lego figure [in Brighton] came as quite a surprise to us when we heard about it yesterday.
"We understand the person behind this is a Dutch artist called
Ego Leonard who will be exhibiting in London in the coming weeks."
