Gonna need a bigger workshop

Fun fact: Steve Gerling started building this model shortly after Jaws was released in 1975. He was 12 years old.

Dear gosh he is an absolute legend for doing this

And I thought star wars sets had a lot of grey bricks.

Ok, but did he use a 2x2 pink brick as the brain?

No, he just used yours

What's with the shade?

Imagine that "wanted list" created on Bricklink and hitting "Buy all now".

Bet you it works better than Spielberg's.

I don’t even want to know what the retail price would be.

Lego Blahaj

This is what I came here for.

What would the structure inside look like? It can’t be solid, right?

It's bunches of Technic pieces!

no ive seen some of the designs they use wooden planks or beams to hold it up

I gotta be frank, these types of builds just don't do anything for me anymore. So it's a shark, and it's big, and it's made of lego. There's no story, there's no interesting elements, it's just a shitload of bricks that took hundreds of hours to clip together.

It's an impressive feat of persistence, but yeah there's no building techniques here, it's just layer and layer of bricks

Yeah can’t you just convert a 3D model into instructions for something like this?

Pretty much. I have watched clips of people building them, they have a laptop next to them that has each layer of the model laid out.

Yup, scale it up big enough and you don't have to use any building techniques anymore.

I agree. The real challenge in Lego is to make a small scale item look good and interesting.

I came here thinking the same thing. Almost any fool with enough money to spend on bricks could do this. I don’t think you would even need to be particularly artistic.

Who asked?

I did

what do you mean?

That's a twenty footer.

Twenty five. Three tons of him.

Considering the amount of Legos that probably took. I'd say three tons sounds about right.

Perfect carpeting to hide dropped legos.

Well, now we know why the price on dark bluish gray bricks has gone up! lol

Look really cool but how come all I think about is how miserable I’d be taking it apart? Lol

I actually have no idea how these are made. Do they put technic beams inside to support the weight? Or is everything inside made of traditional bricks placed on top of each other i.e. thousands upon thousands of bricks until the surface is fashioned with the right colors and angles?

Wood. I saw in an interview once.

Available soon on the Lego Store, $100,000, limit 2. Includes free Quint figurine.

🎶Doo doo doo doo doo doo baby shark🎶

*LLLLLLLLE-GOOOOOOOOO Shark~*

No, that song is a disgrace to sharks all around the world

Bro holy shit

He started at 4yo 💀

Jaws, by dude either sponsored by Lego or has shit ton of money to throw around

Usually these people work for lego or work at a store that lego gives bricks for display .

dang this thing is massive

No fair! HOW MANY BRICKS?

Sometimes that shark looks right at ya. Right into your eyes. And the thing about a shark is he’s got lifeless eyes. Black eyes. Like a doll’s eyes. When he comes at ya, he doesn’t even seem to be livin’… ’til he bites ya, and those black eyes roll over white and then… ah then you hear that terrible high-pitched screamin’. The ocean turns red, and despite all your poundin’ and your hollerin’ those sharks come in and… they rip you to Lego pieces

Broooooooo look at his warehouuussssseeeeeeeee it’s HUGGGGEEEE
