IMAGE OF THE MONTH: Out of the (400,000) blocks

Date: Friday, March 15, 2019

A Volkswagen van with a difference has been revealed – a Camper made from 400,000 Lego bricks!

The full-size recreation of the classic T2 model is more than 5m long, weighs 700kg, and took two experienced Lego model makers six weeks to build.

Challenges they overcame included shortages of the transparent bricks used for the windows, and technically difficult features such as the Westfalia pop-up roof and sliding door.

The Lego T2 was on show at the Free leisure and travel fair in Munich, Germany.
