As I understand, children of this planet start playing with Lego brand toys from a young age.  That does not, however, stop adults from tinkering with them as well. 

Here is one model from a contest from The Brothers Brick on “Steam Wars,” or giving what you humans so naively call “the Star Wars universe” a steampunk twist.  I am rather taken with the concept of a steam-powered TIE fighter, but there are quite a few other inventive creations as well.
