RiderFan Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 Slightly larger that 1:1 scale LEGO X-Wing Fighter. http://www.wired.com/underwire/2013/05/largest-lego-x-wing/?cid=co8224344 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Lodewijk Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 Every weekend I go to the Mall of America I find it hard to resist buying Legos, but I know once I start the addiction won't stop. I still have all the ones from when I was a kid. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bigasshammm Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 Why wouldn't it be an X-wing? I've always wondered. Do they paint these after they're built or do they paint the blocks before assembly OR do they only use the colored blocks that are available in te Lego line? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

stikpusher Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 Pretty cool! If any of you have kids and take them to legoland, you would likely be impressed there as well. Their Lego replicas of New York, New Orleans, San Francisco, and other places have to be seen to be believed. It defintely appealed to the modeler in me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

pigsty Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 Hang on ... they've used five million bricks to make, not a replica of an X-Wing, but a scaled-up replica of their own kit of an X-Wing? Why? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fulcrum1 Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 So I saw the thing at legoland and it was quite stunning. I don't know why they built a replica of a lego kit, but it was really cool. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
HOLMES Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 SPLENDID.... Fulcrum, Did you snap any photos of the beastie model? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
