That "camera" piece was used as a bazooka in Lego Indiana Jones. Secondly, the pistol/hose piece, was used as a pistol in the Lego Agents line, and in Star Wars as a blaster.
If LEGO uses them in their sets as guns/blasters than it means you're right. Some pieces had multi use functions in mind when they were made so LEGO wouldn't have to keep making new molds
I think it’s largely related to Lego not wanting to name it as gun pieces even if they knew they would use them as guns from the beginning considering the whole anti-militaristic theme thing going with Lego
Yup, especially if you look at a lot of modern, more artistic sets, they repurpose older pieces that clearly were meant to be one thing but are reused to serve a different artistic purpose. Lego is all about imagination and creating something new out of what already exists. There is no set rule that says certain pieces cannot be or cannot represent something different.
Every single one of those pieces was a gun or blaster at some point. The megaphone was the original standard for sets like classic StarWars. The “hose” was a pistol and has been used as one in several sets, most notably the Agents series, and before that “hose” was actually a completely different piece that actually did have string attached to it in some sets. The “camera” was also used as a blaster for Dengar in the original Slave One Star Wars set.
Technically the last one is a gun. It was used as Mr Freeze’s freeze gun and Boba Fett’s blaster. Plus Lego themselves used the hose piece for Jango’s blasters. If I remember correctly, the megaphone piece was first used as a blaster for Star Wars.
It's actually used for the exhaust it's just that the piece is so small that they give you a spare one. I still gave the Bond minifigure that gun though. I honestly wonder if the designers of that set used that piece so that they could get a "gun" piece past LEGO's censors or something.
I still think that the Megaphone piece with the bell pointed forward greatly resembles the Ion Guns the used by the Jawas in Episode IV, and yet LEGO uses other pieces for them.
that random discord sfx in the video kept confusing me xD I had to rewatch to make sure it wasnt mine, also yeah I thought those were all guns lol. Always found it cool how you could put the binoculars piece on that one gun to make it look longer
Every single one of these has been used as guns in their sets. That's like saying that a Lego hotdog isn't food just because Lego used it as an eyebrow a few times.
One of the funnier things I remember from the old Prequels sets of about 20 years ago is that the original Droideka set used blasters that were an upside down revolver stuck into binoculars. I ended up only constructing one of them and using the revolvers to pretend another figure was Jango.
I've seen a Lego master builder use a black hotdog piece as the curve of an anchor. Using those as guns is perfectly normal. Pieces have more uses than what they were molded for :)
The hose has been used several times as a gun, a notable one is in LEGO DC supervillains when selecting a gun to give to your character, you can use that as a gun, and it’s literally titled: “Pistol”
I clearly remember seeing the megaphone being used as Batman's grappling hook and the "camera" as a RPG in Lego Indiana Jones games. Also I loved to have those pieces and used them as guns always as a kid.
They also used the “hose” piece for a LEGK Minecrafy Blaze, and since guns are usually blackish and not yellow I called it a water gun since I had extra ones from the fortress set
I rarely got sets of lego when growing up(super expensive), but I did often get really cheap bulk tubs of them from yard sales, and would always get excited when I found anything remotely gun-like for minifigures to hold, or to mount on the spaceship I made for them. Long weekend nights painstakingly raking through that big storage bin looking for "that one cool gun piece I found but overlooked because I was looking for something else."
There was a character in Lego Starwars the Complete Saga that me and my sister called One Shot Kill Guy because his blaster did double damage and with the super blaster upgrade it did insta kill most enemies. I believe he had that last piece as his gun.
I had a 007 Car LEGO set and it came with two of those "Hose" pieces and I got mad because it looked a lot like a gun but it didn't come with any gun pieces even though it was James Bond LEGO set.
All of these pieces were used as guns, and therefore are gun pieces. The Megaphone was used as an early small blaster in early Lego Star Wars sets The hose was used as a pistol for Jango Fett and was used in the Lego Agent sets as a pistol The "Camera" was also used in early Lego Star Wars sets to represent a larger blaster. They are all gun pieces, they just have multiple uses
I used 1X4 lego bricks and used the underside as rocket launchers, 1X1 cylinder pieces as grenade launchers and anythin long as a sleek futuristic turret
The best part about LEGO my dude is that the pieces are literally meant to be what you want them to be. Just look at the creative use of the LEGO frog over the years on official sets.
Megaphone or camera with a black antenna pushed into it were my go too for heavy guns for my space legos. The camera on it's own was the standard small arm and for a side arm there was a piece a little bit similar to the megaphone (it's not shown in this video).
The fire hose part was used as a gun in the lego agents line a while back, and the camera was a blaster in the star wars line (see the original dangar figure in the classic slave 1 set). All these pieces can be guns or blasters or something completely different depending on you imagination
The Lego Star Wars games, or at least the ones I grew up with, used the megaphone and camera as blasters as well. I think the camera was also a rocket-propelled grenade launcher in Lego Indiana Jones.
LEGO has (or had) an official party line that said they did not make "violent" toys and guns, but I saw an interview with old school space designers and they said when they would but the little forks on the front of classic LEGO space ships and the boss would ask them "what's this supposed to be?" they would always say "Oh, that's an antenna. Definitely an Antenna". and the boss would say "Okay. As long as it's not some kind of weapon". and the designers said that it was okay, because they knew that of course pointy things on the front of space ships are laser cannons, and that even if the company told people they were not -- that all the kids would know "Of course it IS a laser cannon" so the designers didn't care what LEGO's official policy was. So yeah, things were designed and first used as megaphones, torch/lamp/flashlights, or cameras, but they often supplied with sets intentionally so that kids could use them as weapons.
The camera piece was also used as a gun back in the old days. Also I thought the camera was meant to be a gun.
That "camera" piece was used as a bazooka in Lego Indiana Jones. Secondly, the pistol/hose piece, was used as a pistol in the Lego Agents line, and in Star Wars as a blaster.
@@GrandAdmiralThrawn.7th_Fleetit was alsoo used in lego chima as a pistol, I even have spider dude with it
All the Lego Dino Hunter sets used them as guns as well
I gave my camera peice to my Boba Fett hehe
I always combined the megaphone and the camera with a round 1x1 to kind make a better bazooka with the exhaust tube on the back
Bro is SOCIOPATHIC for that ping sound 😭
Nah it wasn't that bad, I didn't even realise it.
I agree @KopperVonBismuth
It’s probably there so when you hear it you rewatch the video to see if it was an actual ping.
@@shradercat42 That's soo sneaky...
@@shradercat42 If it's that, then... well I have a reason to dislike this channel!
Lego has used all these pieces to represent a blaster at one point or another.
Based Megadeth enjoyer
Launch the polaris the end doesn't scare us
That's the beauty of LEGO. You turn anything into whatever you want it to be

The hose is definitely also a pistol, it was used in the Agents theme, and one of the villains even had a golden one like Gaddafi
Nah that last one was not a camera, its an rpg in the lego indiana jones game
And boba fett has it in lswtcs
It was used as a space gun in classic Lego space sets.
and mustache rebel in lswtcs
Yes
Same with star wars

Damn Lego Agents brings back good memories!
They were my favorite when I was a kid, and all I wanted was to collect the star stickers from every set to put on my Agent ID card
You weren't violent. You were normal.
He do provoke violence though, had me checking my discord messages halfway through
The “this pistol piece” is better than the official Star Wars blaster pistol piece, I’ve always used it and still do
The second piece was used as a pistol for LEGO Agents.
"Check out my new camera! Oh wait, this isn't a camera..."
Fellow asdf enjoyer
Say cheese! 💥😁
That’s not a camera, that is agent coulson’s destroyer gun
nah,that has two transparent pieces on it,its boba fetts gun
"So that's what it does." 💀
Or Boba Fett's EE-3 carbine rifle from LEGO Star Wars video game.
Technically the last one is a gun. It was used as Mr Freeze’s freeze gun and Boba Fett’s blaster. Plus Lego themselves used the hose piece for Jango’s blasters. If I remember correctly, the megaphone piece was first used as a blaster for Star Wars.
Right, I played lego star wars and lego batman, the piece was indeed used as a blaster, an rpg, and freeze ray.
The James Bond Aston Martin set uses that hose piece as a silencer pistol James Bond would use
Technically it's just a spare piece but I use it for that purpose
@@bricktopian Same.

I was so surprised to find out it wasn't a pistol
EDIT: Dam, 3.3k likes that's crazy this was just a random comment.
SAMEEEE😂
Same
Same
It has been used as a pistol in some sets, for example the Indiana Jones Venice Canal Chase set
What's the source of that beige-clad soldier shooting towards the left?
Man just said the most relatable LEGO childhood.
Ah, another blaster enthusiast, I salute you!

It’s a strategy to make people comment and rewatch the video.
@@oliverfarley7552 oh wow thats dirty lmao
Same bro
I thought the hose piece was gun too 😂
lol!
It looks like a ww2 welrod pistol
Sir the building is on fire this is not the right time to show of your gun
Such is the creativity of Lego
Every single one of these has been used as guns in their sets. That's like saying that a Lego hotdog isn't food just because Lego used it as an eyebrow a few times.
All of them are both, thats why lego is so much fun, its whatever you want it to be
If I remember correctly, the camera is the original Boba Fett’s blaster. (Or at least in Lego Star Wars the Complete Saga)
Yeah, it was
That is the beauty of Lego - you can use anything the way you want :)
so, in summary we have a megaphone, a fire hose nozzel, and a video camera.
I used to use the “hose” pieces all the time. I even went as far as using golden ones to simulate dual golden 1911s
I mean, lego has used almost all of these as guns anyway.
The “camera” was actually a blaster in a LEGO Star Wars Snowspeeder set
THOSE AREN’T GUNS!!!🤯 I may have also been a violent child
All of them have been used as a gun in Lego
The camera block was used as a heavy weapon in lego star wars tcs and as the basooka in both indiana jones games
That's what lego is all about, any piece can be whatever you want with your imagination
That last one was used in space sets as laser guns
Pistols were used for Jango Fett, camera was used for Boba Fett and the megaphone was used for OG blasters all around
The last one, “hay check out my camera. (Gun shot) oh wait this isn’t a camera”
When I was 5 I always used the paddle piece from Lego city as a rifle
That last one though, with the studs on it, can be very easily customized into some really cool weapons
The camera will always be a heavy blaster in my heart.
I am so glad that I wasn't the only one that used those 3 as guns😅
Those were the days
Not sure if anyone remembers exo Force but that “camera” and “Megaphone” were both gun attachments to some of the mechs. That was a cool line
Lego: makes a camera🎥👌😁
Every clone wars/star wars fan: GUN☝️😀
One of the funnier things I remember from the old Prequels sets of about 20 years ago is that the original Droideka set used blasters that were an upside down revolver stuck into binoculars. I ended up only constructing one of them and using the revolvers to pretend another figure was Jango.
He will be shattered once he finds out that 90% of lego frogs are not supposed to be frogs
nostalgia hittin hard rn
The pistol piece had a gold variant from one of the Agents series.
I mean thats kinda the beauty of lego isn't it? Your imagination fills in the gaps and anything can be what you wanted it to be! The best toy to have♡
That’s the cool thing about Lego, they can be whatever you want them to be.
Hey, remember, Lego isn't about being one thing, it's about using your imagination to create whatever you desire. Stay creative.
I feel so much less insane finally hearing wtf that hole in the pistol was for
I've seen a Lego master builder use a black hotdog piece as the curve of an anchor. Using those as guns is perfectly normal. Pieces have more uses than what they were molded for :)
Wow, that takes shooting a scene to a whole new level

The little hose thing was first introduced with the “Agents” line as their guns. And the camera was used as a bazooka in some older sets
I clearly remember seeing the megaphone being used as Batman's grappling hook and the "camera" as a RPG in Lego Indiana Jones games.

All of these have been used as guns at some point by Lego. Lego Agents used those hose pieces as pistols
The pistol piece was what I used as rails for a nonfunctional rollar coaster track
Yea I loved customizing the Camera into Miniguns, bazooka, heavy machine gun, it was awesome.
I loved the hose/pistol. The perfect WWII Welrod suppressed spy gun
I remember I got kicked out of elementary school for a day and had to serve detention in recess for bringing Lego mini figs to school holding guns.
It's a blaster, it's included in many Star Wars sets, that bazooka is was included in a star wars set too
All of these were used as guns at one point in lego sets
The camera was used in in galaxy squad sets as futuristic blasters. So, you are actually right.
if its lego, anything can be a weapon
Bro, the fact that we had all of the same kind of brain cells with Lego.
The pistol is also a exhaust piece on the car of james bond
The camera was used as a rocket launcher in Lego Galaxy Squad. The fire hose was used as a pistol in Agents.
Lego pieces are whatever you want them to be in context by design
There was a character in Lego Starwars the Complete Saga that me and my sister called One Shot Kill Guy because his blaster did double damage and with the super blaster upgrade it did insta kill most enemies. I believe he had that last piece as his gun.

You just _blew_ my mind! But fr, I thought those were blasters!
Megaphone one goes hard.
Just like the camera.
Lived that shit
That fireman gun piece is also used for spraycans.

"Hey guys check out my new camera!"
"Oh wait this isn't the camera"
In my opinion, just put a red or orange transparent round plate on anything and it goes PEW PEW.
They actually used the bazoka-camera in indiana jones' lego game
The best part about LEGO my dude is that the pieces are literally meant to be what you want them to be. Just look at the creative use of the LEGO frog over the years on official sets.
That’s not a megaphone that’s the ultimate childhood blaster!
That plasma bazooka was the best.
They were also in the Lego games like this on the DS/Wii etc.
lego is what you want it to be the whole point is creativity

Tbf the megaphone was the blaster in the early Lego SW games
This video is so true! I can make a comparison to my old Lego builds 😂
I always liked putting a black staff in the front of the camera, all it takes is one piece and you have a lego sniper.
The fire hose part was used as a gun in the lego agents line a while back, and the camera was a blaster in the star wars line (see the original dangar figure in the classic slave 1 set). All these pieces can be guns or blasters or something completely different depending on you imagination
