The Model Shop team at LEGOLAND California had a little fun today at General Manager Peter Ronchetti’s expense …the team replaced the GM’s Volvo XC60 with a life-sized LEGO XC90 made of 201,076 LEGO bricks.
The model was built in 2004 and weighs 2,934 pounds. Imagine his surprise when he tried to leave for lunch!
LEGO Haunted House
Mike Doyle’s latest LEGO house (perhaps even more hauntingly beautiful than the last) is a Victorian mansion that transcends the material so effectively, the plastic reads like real rotting bricks and mortar. I love the house-devouring trees, created with LEGO hinge cylinders to mimic the texture of tree bark, and ridged 3 mm hose, droid arms and other technic connectors for the creepy, spindly branches.
Constructed brick by brick with 50k-60k LEGO parts over a period of approximately 450 hours.
