The lights are on
In New York's Times Square, Lego revealed a new jaw-dropping (and record-breaking) creation. The life-size X-Wing fighter is now the largest Lego model in the world.
An unveiling event took place last week, when Lego showed the gathered crowd the impressive model. It is a 1:1 replica of a "real" X-Wing, measuring 11 feet tall and 43 feet long, with a 44-foot wingspan. It even has R2-D2's head poking out.
The pictures below show the X-Wing in its hanger prior to the reveal. Take a good look, because this is one Lego set you'll never find in stores.

Amazing!
Meh, Ive built bigger.
Mine's bigger...
Now make the deathstar!
Do the wings work? I'm serious, because it would be really cool if you could twist a knob and the wings go out.
This is really cool! I totally want to go sit in it and imagine myself in a Lego Star Wars world.
Oh snap!!!
I wanna see something like the Thundertank!!!!!
Of course it's Star Wars.
Surreal.
