The Yamato in full mini-fig scale. Took the dude 6 years and 200,000+ parts.

I'll take the liberty of putting a few of the photo's here for easy viewing, and no im not going to crop them

Huge.... 16 foot long

The accuracy is amazing think this guy has o.c.d.

Even built hand made Zeros(Japanese plane)

Hahaha look at the mini boat next to it.

Now to take it for the ultimate test.......

Does it float?

Stunning ...

Wonder what that cost to make/build in Legos and person hours ?

[Trooper110]

Ummm, so who do I have to kill to get one of those? Cause I'll do it....

The rough thumbnail for a new Lego piece is 10 cents per. So you're looking at something like $20,000 worth of Legos. The man hours to get it right, and at that size, are like, a lot and stuff.

"J** Plane?" why don't we just call it a "N** Ship" while we're at it? Nvm, we'll just let the subtle racism slide.

I had edited some of this so it doesn't make sense now. It's all good.

Im sorry where I am growing up that is not realy considered an offensive term.

Hmmm I'm curious is it the shortening of the word Japan or the shorting of the word Nipponese? In either case by themselves I don't think the word was bad. I think it was the meaning they took on during WWII. For example I routinely say I am a fan of Ja* motorcycles.

But can it withstand a hit from a 16" shell?
