Huge ‘Lord of the Rings’ LEGO Diorama Has 150 Million Pieces – Explore All Of Middle-Earth
An epic build requires epic inspiration. This must-see Lord of the Rings LEGO diorama includes the biggest battles of Middle Earth.
The Guinness World Record for “largest interlocking plastic brick diorama” comes in the form of a massive Lord of the Rings diorama constructed at Smaerd Land (a children’s museum) in Shenzhen, China. A record they’ll hold for a while. It required a team of imaginative builders who love Tolkien and years to accomplish.
Lord of the Rings LEGO Diorama
YOU SHALL NOT PASS! This massive structure, based on the battles from Lord of the Rings, is record-breaking!
The entire Lord of the Rings LEGO diorama contains 150 million pieces and measures around 2,060 square feet, which is about the size of the average American 3-bed, 2-bath house. It took a crew of 50 designers and builders several years to construct – and likely has more than just LEGO pieces in it. The detail built into its multiple battle scenes is amazing. You’ll be able to recognize locations in the LoTR books as you take this virtual tour through the build.
A short video can’t capture the detail and the scope of this Lord of the Rings LEGO diorama. I’d bet it would take several museum visits to take it all in, from the orc hordes at Orthanc surrounded by the Ring of Isengard to Rohan and the glory of Lothlórien. It’s all there. There are even several underground caverns below the surface of the massive building that you can see through glass panels.
