LEGO Life Size Forest at Sydney, Australia

Post by Toys N Bricks » Tue Jul 10, 2012 3:12 pm

If you live in the Sydney area in Australia (province of New South Wales), be sure to check out the cool LEGO Forest display at Martin Place! The trees and flowers there are all enlarged 66 times and will be on until July 12th. More details can be found at this website. Thanks to Julia for the tip.

I may be wrong, but that looks to me like CGI models imposed/edit on a background -- as in, a fake photograph

There's something sort of creepy about this display. What the world will look like in an environmentally devastated future, maybe. Like if we all have to live underground due to the polluted air, and this is the only forest/park we can have in our underground shelters.

Is that the premise of the new Lorax movie? (I'm not sure, I haven't seen it.)

Also, what would it cost to get one of these flowers or trees after the exhibit is over? What a centerpiece for the dining room!

If you check out the link you can watch a video of them setting it up. It's real, for sure! :-)

I'd love one of those flower bunches for myself, too.
