65,000-Brick LEGO Space Shuttle is Stunning

This may look like a real Space Shuttle at the first site but it is actually the result of marvelous LEGO work. Two Japanese LEGO smiths used 65,000 LEGO bricks and 1,590 man hours to complete this LEGO Space Shuttle. It is the world’s biggest LEGO space shuttle.  It even has a command center and a red countdown button.  Flashing lights and rocket booster sounds function when the countdown finishes. This LEGO Space Shuttle is the part of  “Nasu Space Center” and appeared at Nasu Highland Park, an amusement park in Japan. The duo behind the creation of this marvelous LEGO Space Shuttle are said to be participating in an event to build the tallest LEGO tower. The current highest LEGO tower is built by LEGO enthusiasts in Vienna which is over 96 feet tall. See more pictures of the Space Shuttle below and a video after the jump. (Image Credit)
