Meet the 23-Ton X-Wing, the World's Largest Lego Model
First time accepted submitter awaissoft writes "There's big, then there's really big, and then there's colossal, which might be a good word to use when describing a near 46,000-pound Lego X-Wing that made a triumphant debut Thursday in New York's Times Square. The full-size replica, about 42 times the size of the Lego Star Wars X-Wing set available on store shelves, celebrates the debut of Cartoon Network's The Yoda Chronicles, which premieres on May 29 at 8 p.m. It took a small army of 32 Lego master builders, housed in a facility in the Czech Republic, to build the 45,980-pound, or 23-ton, Lego ship. It stands 11 feet high and 43 feet long, and contains more than 5 million Lego pieces."
It's in Times Square. Not exactly an obscure location.
Also, totally visible from my desk, which for once made having offices in Times Square not suck.
William of Ockham had no beard. The most likely explanation is that it was chewed off by squirrels every morning.
I think you mean S-foils.You can turn in your nerd card at the door.
"S-foils, also known as Strike foils or Stability foils, and on occasion as X-foils,[1] were movable wings..."
