Lego Church..WOW!!!

I got this in an email and thought I would share:

LEGO CHURCH

A few quick facts:

How long to build it? It was about a year and a half of planning, building and photographing.

How many pieces of LEGO to build it? more than 75,000

How big is it? About 7 feet by 5 ½ feet by 30 inches (2.2 m x 1.7 m x .76 m)

How many Lego people does it seat? 1372

How many windows? 3976


It features a balcony, a Narthex, stairs to the balcony, restrooms, coat rooms, several mosaics, a nave, a baptistery, an altar,
a crucifix, a pulpit, and an elaborate pipe organ.

Re: Lego Church..WOW!!!

Probably around $10,000 worth the Legos. When my so was little we figured $.10 a Lego was a good deal and I'm sure they've gone up since then.

That's really neat. My son has a bucket of Legos that consists of 500 pieces. I paid 8.99 for it at Walmart. If they were 10 cents a piece it would have cost $50 for the bucket of Legos.

Re: Lego Church..WOW!!!

That is really cool. Just to think if they are 10 cents a piece, my sweeper sucked up a fortune...lol...I use to tell the boys, clean them up or I suck them up...I told them 3 times then I got the sweeper...mean I know, but those things kill your feet especially since you only step on them in the middle of the night when you are bare footed...lol.
