Lego is one of the most amazing toys of all time and it has helped generation of children expand their imaginations as they build millions of things from the tiny bricks, then scattering them around the floor for unaware parents to step on - but the new Lego slippers want to avoid just that.

The amount of pain it causes to step on a little Lego brick might seem exaggerated to an onlooker, but everyone's experienced how painful it can be to put one's foot on the upper half of one of these tiny little pieces of plastic, which is why the famous toy company is launching the Lego slippers.

According to Metro, the company just "invented" a new set of Lego slippers of an extra cushy nature (with a lot of padding, that is) to prevent future accidents from happening to poor people's feet.

The Independent reports that the new Lego slippers saw the company teaming up with French advertising agency Brand Station to come up with the perfect present for parents fearing to walk around their home in the late hours of the night, when those adorable little bricks become weapons - and the new slippers will "enable you to walk in the house in the middle of the night without any worries."

According to UPI, there are only 1,500 pairs of Lego slippers available, and they're exclusively given away on Lego France's website through a promotion of those who fill out a wish list on the site, so dreams of keeping one's feet protected against those cute and deadly little plastic bricks remain far for those everywhere but the European country.

A random few people will get the new slippers after making their wish lists, so everyone who loves building Lego castles in France should be filling it up right now for a chance to get one of the few Lego slippers!
