Lego MOC Helm’s Deep by Rich-K & Big J .<\/figcaption><\/figure> This huge Lego My Own Creation of Helm’s Deep is simply enormous. Created by Rich-K & Big J, it’s only 90% complete right now and uses some 150,000 bricks and features 1,700 mini-figures. <\/p>\n

How big is it? Well, it weighs around 160 pounds (about 70 kilograms for us metric folk), and covers a pretty much an entire ping-pong table. The creators say it uses 24 grey 48 x 48 base plates. <\/p>\n

Once LEGO set was released last year, I thought, is this it? so I have started to collect mini-figures from around the world specially Elf. It was painful process since I was only able to get six from Germany, eight from Poland, etc in order to get enough Elf to represent movie scene. Actual construction took about four months. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

This MOC will be on display in its fully complete form at BrickWorld in Fort Wayne on September 28 and 29. <\/p>\n
