Brickworkz LEGO mosaics : Blog : Records are meant to be broken. Records are meant to be broken.The challenge came in from Ohio. Break the Guinness World Record for the largest LEGO image. Sounded like fun. Over the month of September, I spent several hours a day working on designing a project for Dan Brown at the Toy Museum in Bellaire, Ohio. The mosaic is based on a LEGO 18-wheeler toy, and (as a shocking coincidence) will include a mosaic on the trailer of... you guessed it... LEGO minifigures. For now, Dan has set up a date for the street event later in the month. So if I don't have time to design the LEGO minifigures stuff on the trailer, we can leave it gray or figure something else out, then just go back after we get the record to do the fine-tuning. I've read over the Guinness requirements a few times today and it looks like my design will blow the previous record away by more than just a little. It's A LOT of Lego parts, with lots of potential to keep other competitors away for a while. So this weekend, I'm driving up to Ohio to help build the mosaic. We'll have a bunch of kids there helping to build it which should save a lot of time. I'm planning on a few all-nighters this weekend to get as much done as possible. Here goes!!
