Lego Hoth Base and Battlefield

This huge Lego Hoth base model measuring 117cm x 156cm was built by myself over 9 months for the primary window display at the Annual Lego show in Paraparaumu, New Zealand, over the weekend of 10 / 11 October 2008. The final piece count was around 30000, with the majority of that being white 2x2 plates for the snow. The music is Nine Inch Nails 'Ghosts 1', the first track of their 'Ghosts' album, released 2008.

Those doors slide slow as shit. What if their being invaded, are the snow troopers gonna stop and say "take your time." I mean holy shit those doors are slow.

@kfb26 Lets be honest here. Its not like the Imperial ATAT's were that quick either.

where do you get white baseplates??

[deftones1007]

@thebeststuntboy No white baseplates were used - I used heaps of 2x2 white plates for the snow. They were raised up by one brick so I could do all the recessed footprints and crash detail.

[deftones1007]

@jtgrigg1 Yep - my mistake here - I didn't even notice until someone else pointed it out months after the model was built.
