    Legendary for being sunk in a desperate, hopeless act.

    Unbelievable! How long would the legendary Japanese Warship Yamato be, built out of LEGO bricks? That's the question Jumpei Mitsui asked himself since he was a young boy. Now a third year student, Jumpei has answered his own question by building a LEGO model of the Yamato. It took the young Japanese 6 years and 4 months to finish his masterpiece, using 200,000 LEGO bricks. The LEGO warship is built at a scale of 1/40, weighs over 150 kilograms (330 lbs.), measures 6.6 (21 ft.) meters from bow to stern and is 1 meter wide at the widest point of the ship. Jumpei Mitsui finished the LEGO Yamato on April 9, 2009 and he deserves our congratulations. Well done my friend.

    pretty sweet. oh and greenradish, fuck you. it's tagged in bizarre/oddities. deal with it. and Lego rules. i'd say it's because you're a girl, but the plethora of girls who played with legos would get pissed at me. so i guess it's just you.
