Large Models lego projects

When we were given the idea of the Smash and Grab challenge for LEGO Masters Series 2 we had to think long and hard about the right sort of model to build for it. It had to be impressive, but it also had to be easily push-over-able by Hamish! AND it needed to be as […]

For our last Brickvention 2020 Spotlight we’re focusing on Stephan’s enormous LEGO® Technic version of the St Louis Gateway Arch. Perhaps not so well known outside the US, the Gateway Arch is the largest human-made arch in the world and is a massive 192m tall! Stephan lived and worked in St Louis for a number […]

Our resident motorcycle rider builder KC surprised us by deciding to NOT build a motorcycle for Brickvention 2020! He decided instead to create a “life-size” version of his favourite Looney Tunes character, and fellow Tasmanian, Taz Devil. Not only that, he also decided to build the model as a self-portrait. KC created the model from […]

Building a life-sized Britten LEGO® brick V-1000 motorcycle was a real challenge. Like the other two life-sized motorcycles we have built, we started with the wheels, working around a central vertical channel to allow for a metal support to keep the model vertical and safe for transport. The front wheel was built separately first, including […]

Melbourne’s LEGO® fan exhibition, Brickvention,was where Ryan started his LEGO® career. So he thought that 2020 would be a great opportunity to return to Brickvention after a 4 year break, but this time he’d bring the entire Brickman team with him! The idea was for every team member, from our Inventory Manager through to Ryan himself, to […]

Halfway through 2019 Ryan decided that the whole team could build whatever that wanted to for Melbourne’s premier LEGO® Fan exhibition, Brickvention 2020. Needless to say, the whole team was pretty excited! The idea was for every team member, from our Inventory Manager through to Ryan himself, to build LEGO® models to showcase their skills […]

For NZ’s first LEGO® Certified Store in Newmarket, Auckland we built an enormous upside-down bungy jumper LEGO® minifig! This giant minifig took us 119.5 hours and 39,722 LEGO® bricks to build! It’s the only one we built upside down from head to feet. The water was a challenge to build as not only did it […]
