I was just pointed to this by someone else - I can't believe that we missed it until now!
A few weeks ago, some Lemmings statues appeared, climbing a pillar, in Dundee, opposite the building which housed the former DMA Design office (which, if memory serves, has had a commemorative plaque on it for some time) where Lemmings was originally created.
The full story can be read here.
A gallery of photos is located here.
And, last but by no means least, a brief video featuring the sculptor, Alyson Conway, can be viewed here.
Just thought that everyone might like to know!

a flurry of online excitement from locals and from fans of the legendary game across the world who have hailed them as "awesome".
Where are all these online fans, and why aren't they here?
And yes, the statues are indeed "awesome"! (or is that AWESOME)

What a great way to honor one of the greatest video games of all time!I could only repeat those words. Dundee would now make a nice tourist attraction! I sure hope these lemmings will stay there, so that I can take some pictures myself...
