World's Largest LEGO Structures

by ArenaCommerce Collaborator

LEGOs came around in the 1940s, and a lot of people fell in love with them. Both adults and kids couldn't get enough of the beautiful structures. The fact that these toy rocks were interlocking was able to be up great creativity and wonder in many people. 


Now, LEGO has grown to encompass different aspects of our lives in their different structures. You could experience your movies via LEGOs. You are allowed to couple a number of creative structures together, thereby increasing one's creativity. A lot of engineers grew up loving engineering because of LEGO. 


Largest LEGO structure


We will look at the largest LEGO structures ever made. These structures will blow your mind away. Experts came together to couple them.


1. A full-sized functional home

Well, like the name states, an engineering wizard decided to use all his thinking faculty to create this. There is a great chance that you know of James May, Top Gear engineering whiz. 


He created a house that one can live in, and it is large. Do you know how large a real house is? This is how this LEGO house created by James May is. The house was made with more than three million LEGO bricks in the year, 2009.

This house has a toilet, a shower, a sink and so on, and all of them worked well. Unfortunately, it was turned down weeks later. We wish we can live in a house like that. Won't it be an awesome idea?


2. The Lord of the Rings' Rivendell

There is hardly anyone that has not heard of the Lord of The Rings. It was one of the best book series and movie series that we ever watched. I couldn't get enough of it, and I wish that it could be resurrected once more. 

 

This was what Alice Finch and David Frank, LEGO enthusiasts decided to do. As fans of both the Lord of the Rings and LEGO, they divided to create an Elvin realm. According to the creator, they had an Elvin Realm that they fancied in the Lord of the Rings series, Rivendell. They made this in 2013, and it was marvelous. To get the work done, they had to couple over 200,000 bricks together. 


The Lord of the Rings' Rivendell


When they were done, we had no choice but to marvel at how awesome their details were. The Elven figurines were tiny and so realistic. I would have thought that they were real. What about plant life? It was one in town. For fans of The Lord of The Rings and LEGO, there is a great chance that you will love this. 


3.Taj Mahal

Taj Mahal is one of the wonders of the world, and it has exceptional beauty. This is a memorable site in Asia that many tourists troop in to go and see. To commemorate its beauty, the LEGOLAND Dubai decided to create it in 2016. When it was unveiled, we marveled at how realistic it was. It seemed that the Taj Mahal was copied and pasted there, but in this case, it was pasted in LEGO bricks. Every detail was captured in this piece. It is said that it took 280,741 bricks to make them. Can we just clap for the LEGOLAND Dubai for creating this marvel?

4. Batman Batarang

For Batman's fans, the Batarang is something that we loved. We fancied how he used it to attack his enemies. A fan of the hooded hero decided to create this, but in this case, it was a LEGO design firm Bright Bricks. They created this awesome Batman Batarang and designed it in such a way as it crash-landed a few seconds ago. It was erected on the Observation Point in London's South Bank, and everyone that went by had to stop and take a picture.

This structure took more than 35,000 LEGO pieces to make, and we can say that it was worth it. This structure is 133 times bigger than the LEGO piece that inspired its creation. To the creators of this design, we bow at how awesome they are. 

 

5. Life-size X-Wing fighter

Have you watched Star Wars, there is a great chance that you would have fancied this structure? A lot of experts were hired by LEGO to create this masterpiece. It is the full-scale X-Wing starfighter that is seen in a lot of Star Wars films. For Star War fans, this is extraordinary. It is no news that LEGO regularly employs experts to create extraordinary structures and this was one of them. 


When this structure was done, it swallowed 5 million LEGO bricks. It was said to weigh about 45,000 pounds. This is far larger than the allowed weight for a number of small aircraft. 


The team put a lot of engineering concepts into play. They made the jet to be able to be traveled in. It can withstand a large amount of damage and stress. It toes the line of what the creators of the original model had in mind and had created. 


Leave the sci-fi tech aside, this is awesome. 


6. Starship: OSS Pontbriand

Like its counterpart above, this was created with details in mind. The creator, Jeff Pelletier paid serious attention to details. It is an awesome sight to behold. The Starship: OSS Pontbriand has a length of six feet and his interiors are made up of four levels.

It is no news that for a long time, many people have competed to create the biggest tower in existence. Many experts have put together LEGO pieces to see if they will their counterparts or the previous records. The largest tower, for now, is located in Tel Aviv, Israel. 


We won't be surprised if it is outed by another tower in the future. This tower has a high of 118 feet.
