A lego figurine is 1.5 inches tall, that works out to about 3.81 cm.


And at 150 lbs, this thing has to have that steel frame, because no way a lego brick is strong enough to hold up like that. 35,000 pieces too, considering it took me four days to build my 3100 piece star destroyer (only to tear it apart of corse), I'm thinking about sticking with smaller scales!

Cool creation though, I give kudos to the builder.

It was mounted on a steel frame with wheels for movement, forgot to ask the builder if the frame was integrated into the model.

It is. The whole thing was build over such a frame.

The Certificate of Authenticity states "Republic Attack Cruiser".

Current bid is $31,102.00 and 4 days left. I would so buy it if it ever went into production, but alas, it is a one off. Don't think I could get it in my dorm room anyways, or up the stairs for that matter (it won't fit in the elevator).

Yup, I see that now. Either the correction on the eBay page wasn't up when I posted about that, or I missed it.
