X-traordinary! Life size X-Wing is largest Lego ever built (Daily Mail)



  • - Model took four months to complete
  • - Built in the LEGO Model Shop in Kladno, Czech Republic 
  • - X-Wing is a 42x the size of LEGO Star Wars set #9493 
  • - Steel was used to enable it to withstand the rumble of the subway and earthquakes

  • An enormous Star Wars X-Wing spaceship has landed in New York's Times Square.

    It took 32 master builders more than five million LEGO bricks and too 17,000 hours to put together the full-scale replica of the Star Wars fighter.

    The Lego X-Wing is the largest Lego model in history. It's as big as the real thing and would be capable of fitting the real Luke Skywalker inside.

    The full scale mode imitates the official $60 Lego 9493 X-Wing Fighter - except it's just 42 times larger.

    However instead of just 560-pieces and a few inches in length, this model uses more than five million pieces. It's 11-feet tall, 43-feet long and has a 44-foot wingspan.

    The engines also glow and roar as per the films - and you can sit inside.

    The Star Wars-themed, 46,000-pound spacecraft arrived in 34 sections by container ship from Kladno in the Czech Republic.
