Oh wow!

chicagoseb.bsky.social•153 days ago

wow I missed A LOT in my childhood. I had no idea what this was, I just looked it up. So cool.

elisabethhobbes.co.uk•153 days ago

That’s awesome!

davidjonfuller.bsky.social•152 days ago

Hm @jaythenerdkid.bsky.social I think you will appreciate this...

THE TURTLE MOVES

bedwyr.bsky.social•152 days ago

A'tuin!!

dbeatcatdad.bsky.social•153 days ago

oh hell yeah

iskandarv.bsky.social•153 days ago

Saw that on Saturday. It is magnificent. Sadly could not get a good photo because the site was so crowded.

captainsidecar.bsky.social•152 days ago

TBH I think there should be more (any, really, in the official range) Lego Discworld stuff. It would make a pleasant change from yet more Harry Fucking Potter sets.

soapachu.bsky.social•153 days ago

I love this so much

fababomination.bsky.social•153 days ago

sharkbaitdz.bsky.social•153 days ago

That's fantastic 😀

reverendjesus.com•153 days ago

Hey y'all — watch THIS!

(hope you don't mind @rincewind.run; if it's not cool go ahead and say so)

reverendjesus.com•153 days ago

RIGHT‽

awkwardleftycj.bsky.social•153 days ago

This is so much better than sports.

gothfashion.info•153 days ago

Would enjoy it a lot more if people weren’t reposting it on the dw sub every 20 minutes.

hellsop.ninehells.com•153 days ago

Reading back in the sub is for suckers, I guess.

fishouthebox.bsky.social•153 days ago

Oh my, so awesome.

snarkyengineer.bsky.social•153 days ago

This is absolutely amazing. One of the coolest large Lego pieces I've ever seen.

dacilmp.bsky.social•153 days ago

Wooooow 😍

benbartlett.bsky.social•153 days ago

Thankyou, this rules so goddamned hard

melvalentin.bsky.social•153 days ago

Thanks, man. Appreciated at my end.

itsherby.bsky.social•153 days ago

This belongs in a museum

robinbobcat.bsky.social•149 days ago

Great A'tuin!

rincewind.run•153 days ago

we have an artist! put her on Lego Masters AU immediately

lewis-fungus.bsky.social•153 days ago

goddamn I loved going to Lego conventions, they're unbelievable

tmtonnessen.bsky.social•153 days ago

reverendjesus.com•153 days ago

While that IS very cool, it's not the one in the Reddit post. The Reddit one is visibly taller, for one.

majima.club•153 days ago

Her name is on the competition tag in the picture, along with her entry number.

reverendjesus.com•153 days ago

Ah, I see; this is a letter refinement then

Thanks for clarifying

majima.club•153 days ago

Yeah it looks like maybe she used less detail on the top and put more work onto adding the turtle. Maybe 2 different years or two different versions!

iskandarv.bsky.social•153 days ago

Yeah it is two different years. Talked to her at the show. It is largely the same discworld on top, but this year with the addition of elephants and the turtle. Plus the waterfall curtain has been improved.

reverendjesus.com•153 days ago

Jesus, a LATER refinement

What is with my typing today, whew

majima.club•153 days ago

I knew what you meant. I had to decode doctor handwriting for 22 years and my 70 year old dad’s attempts at using emoji and Siri. I’m basically a cipher

reverendjesus.com•153 days ago

It sure looks about the right size, circumference-wise, though.

rincewind.run•153 days ago

the creator is on reddit here!

hughmurnaghan.bsky.social•153 days ago

I'm just now thinking how glorious a series of Lego Discworld films/TV series would be...

okie.gay•153 days ago

I found a better shot of the top of the turtle! The artist is Kayleigh Lange from Australia

clarealice.bsky.social•153 days ago

This looks like a different piece to me! The colors are different

clarealice.bsky.social•153 days ago

The piece with the turtle appears to be Reddit user Cats_Bricks_Stars https://www.reddit.com/r/lego/comments/1fy4x4d/terry_prachetts_the_disc_world/

rincewind.run•153 days ago

I do think it's the same person, actually - the name of the creator of both pieces is the same (you can see it on the plaque), so I'm assuming the turtle version is a later improvement on the original

clarealice.bsky.social•153 days ago

Good catch! Did not see the plaque
