Full Size Lego SUV Costs More Than The Real Thing

This was submitted by my mom! The demographic of Fruitless Pursuits is shifting as we speak. Next we will be reporting on the weather in Florida and the Conrad Murray trial.

Actually my mom still keeps up with the toys that I buy. It's very important because I'm 32 years old and Christmas is only a few months away.

Anyway, here's the video. 22 builders built a full size Ford Explorer in 2500 hours. It's made up of 380,000 Lego bricks, which we all know costs about a million dollars. According to Lego it's about $40,000. But still!

Also, there's a bunch of unofficial 2012 Lego news and pictures working it's way around the internet. Star Wars Hoth board game in the style of Heroica? I cannot wait.
