This is what a LEGO Death Star made out of 500,000 bricks looks like


If you happen to venture to England in the coming weeks, make sure to visit Legoland Windsor's exhibition of this massive LEGO Death Star. The spherical model contains over 500,000 bricks, weighs approximately 1,900 pounds, and took 15 builders with superhuman abilities over three months to complete. The 2.4 meter wide, 3 meter high creation will serve as the centerpiece of the 651,086-piece Star Wars Miniland Model Display, which will be showcased when Legoland Windsor opens for the season on March 11.
