Pieces of Lego lost overboard from a container ship 17 years ago are still being found washed up on the South West coast.
It is a beach litter cleanup kids could enjoy Lego is continuing to wash up on the shores of Devon and Cornwall beaches 17 years after a container ship was struck by a freak wave and close to five million pieces were lost overboard.
The list of places where the famous plastic toys has been found ashore includes South Devon's Bigbury Bay, Texas and Melbourne.
Former South Devon resident Tracey Williams set up the Lego Lost at Sea Facebook page after finding pieces of sea themed Lego near her home in the late 1990s..
Tracey now lives in Cornwall and finds Lego almost daily. The Facebook page has more than 40,000 likes and receives updates and photos from around the globe.
Tracey also set up the facebook page Newquay Beachcombing and is one of the co-founders of the beach cleaning group Newquay Beach Care.
The tanker which lost the cargo was caught in a storm off Land's End on 13 February 1997.
Most of the pieces of Lego are found in Cornwall and reported to be flippers, spear guns, seagrass, scuba tanks and life preservers.
But sightings have been reported in the Gower Peninsula, Pembrokeshire, Ireland, America, the Netherlands and even Australia
Tracey told the BBC: "Some people have suggested that divers should go down and try to locate the lost container,"
"One man contacted me to say he could put a team together to attempt this. Another wants to create a theatre piece based on the whole story.
"It's great that all this interest raises awareness of the whole issue of marine debris and ocean pollution, especially when it's among children."
Only three containers from the lost load were recovered intact - the rest were assumed to have sunk and were not considered a hazard for shipping, a report in the Lloyd's List maritime journal said.
