GRAND BUDAPEST HOTEL recreated with 50,000 LEGO’s
Wes Anderson’s Grand Budapest Hotel arrives on Blu-ray from Fox Searchlight on June 17. To celebrate, they have recreated the illustrious hotel entirely out of LEGO’s. Take a tour, with trusty lobby boy Tony Revolori, in this video showing how it was built!
Ryan Ziegelbauer and his team of eight model builders – all die-hard fans of Wes Anderson – spent 575 hours building and designing the replica of the exquisite hotel. To construct the model, more than 50,000 certified Lego bricks from collectors and wholesalers were sourced from Lithuania, Poland, Latvia, Germany, Italy and 14 different states in the U.S. The final model will weigh approximately 150 pounds and stand 7 feet tall and 6.5 feet wide.
Stay tuned for our Grand Budapest Hotel Blu-ray review.
