Although the rest of the gadget blogging community never has any shortage of scale-model Enterprises or working 8-bit computers built block by blockto write about, it’s harder for us Minecraft lovers here at Cult of Mac to find an opportunity to declare our adoration for the charming and addictive voxel-based world builder.
Thankfully, one resourceful Apple fan has just come to our rescue with an incredible recreation of the famous 5th Avenue Apple Store.
Sure, building a giant glass cube in Minecraft isn’t too hard, but the addition of a giant Apple logo and an entire showroom of Mac minis takes this project to another level. I only wish this project had been accompanied by a custom graphics back, changing the belly of the Minecraft Apple Store into a dungeon filled with turtleneck wearing, Genius Bar skeletons.
