Lego Wonderlands

I have to admit that despite never having owned any, I am a bit of a sucker for walking in a 'Lego Wonderland', so when I read that a moving replica of a jet engine has been made out of thousands of Lego bricks, I was naturally intrigued. It turns out that the half-size replica of the Rolls-Royce Trent 1000 engine was intended to inspire  teens and kids to become engineers.

I on the other hand was more inspired by stories and creations like that of Gerry Burrows, 'Garrison of Moriah' a blend of Star Wars and Lord of the rings, it took 250,000 Lego pieces and  many months ....

Garrison Of Moriah
...... inspired by 'Helms Keep' in Lord Of The Rings, and the 'Battle Star' from Star Wars, this great creation is pure magic.

There are many more pictures on this link as well as links to other Lego Wonderlands.
