World’s Largest Star Wars LEGO Mosiac

Curious about DK’s world record breaking event/mosiac? Yeah, here you go:

Stats from Geekdad:

There were 25 rows and 60 columns in the design, making a total of 1,500 tiles (Amodlife: each ’tile’ is one green baseplate)

As they’d decided to go with the 2×2 bricks, that meant that each tile would need 256 to complete it, making a total of 384,000 bricks for the whole picture.

If they’d gone for the ‘higher resolution’ version and used all 1×1 bricks it would have needed over 1.5 million of them!

Each base plate tile is 25.5cm square, so by my (GeekDad’s) calculations the final size of the mosaic was 6.375m x 15.3m or 97.54 square metres, which beats the previous record of 80.48 metres square, held by The Toy Museum in Ohio, USA
