MOVE OVER SIMPSONS LEGO!! ‘Family Guy’ K’Nex’ ARE HERE!!!!

Following up on the recent release of Simpsons-branded LEGO playsets, 20th Century FOX is going a different route with its Family Guy franchise as they have recently announced a new venture with K’Nex toys that will see inspired playsets featuring Peter, Lois, Meg, Stewie, Brian, and the whole gang in stores everywhere.

According to a press release obtained from PRWeb:

The new product line combines the award-winning K’NEX building system with the most iconic characters and elements from Family Guy including, Peter, Stewie, Brian, the Griffin Family station wagon, Stewie’s time machine and more, bringing them from the television screen to the construction aisle for the first time

I used to play with K’Nex all the time when I was a kid and I actually built myself a rather impressive collection of drag-racing cars powered by rubber bands that would run across the floor. Thankfully, with this set, you get a bit more variety including:
