nanoblock Neuschwanstein

This is a build of Schloss Neuschwanstein created by a company called nanoblock. Nanoblocks are 200% smaller than the equivalent Lego element. This build was over 5,800 pieces, but the finished product is about 15in x 5in x 9in. This set has three rotating color LEDs in it also, which provide the really excellent light show at the end. It was not cheap, and I had to order it from Japan, but it was not a hard build, and I think it's really cool.

This took me about a week to do, but that was mostly in building spurts of an hour or so at a time. The most difficult part was trying to keep the 6,000 tiny pieces organized and not eaten by one of the cats.

@booboowilson10101 I had to get this on Ebay.  I have seen the little sets in ToysRUs but I have never seen the large sets in stores.

That looks really nice, how is the quality of nano blocks? Is it like the hard plastic lego uses?

[novorskas]

@M4X1994 They seem to be a little softer. And the grip is a little looser, so to make something stable, you need multiple crosshatching layers. That said, this particular model is very stable. Legos generally have an interior "post" that keeps them from sliding, and helps to make sure things line up right.  Nanoblocks don't have that, so it's up to you, the builder, to make sure everything is straight.
