Does anyone know where I can buy these in-store? I want to get them for this weekend, so ordering online is out unless I want to pay a fortune in overnight shipping (which I don't). If you've seen these at a Michael's or something similar, I would love to know.

Honestly, it's simple to make a Lego cake without a mould. Bake a 9x13, cut it into 3 pieces (each ~9x4"), and cut one of those in half (so you have two squares ~4x4"). This gives you 2 rectangular 8-peg Legos and 2 square 4-peg Legos. Cut regular-sized marshmallows in half to be the pegs. Frost the cake, frost the marshmallows, stack the cakes however you want, and then place the marshmallows onto the cakes. You can see one that I did here: browniesandblondies.blogspot.com/2010/09/lego-cake.html
Thanks for posting. I guess I was thinking more of the candy molds that make little chocolate legos. I really like your cakes -- I'm thinking that's what I'll end up doing.

I haven't seen the chocolate lego molds in stores. and I'm bummed I just washed mine in the DW (not thinking) and it melted... I did a cake similar to udscooby - but frosting marshmellows did not work out for me. instead I used clear plastic tealight holders and filled them with icing. I'm obviously not a baker - but here is our final product:
