Lego My Yamato

0112

After six years and four months, Jun Brick, a serious Japanese Lego craftsman, finally completed building the WWII battleship Yamato out of 200,000 Lego parts. Weighing in at 330 pounds and expanding more than 21 feet in length and 3 feet in width, this ship is large enough to take on some serious Lego competition. Perhaps the USS Harry S. Truman Lego aircraft carrier built by Malle Hawking last year?

The real Yamato battleship, compared to others in its class, was the largest and most heavily armed battleship ever built. It was finally sunk by a carrier-borne aircraft in 1945 while on its way to attack invading American armies.
