The Greatest Star Wars Lego Set You’ll Never Own
Mostly because it doesn’t exist. Instead, this Venator class Star Destroyer — which was made with more than 43,000 bricks and is over 8-feet long — was assembled solely by Sylvain Ballivet. I suppose you could ask to buy it off him, but I doubt he’d say yes. And even if he did I don’t think you’d ever be able to get it out of that room (or at least reassemble it properly afterwards). Anyways, if there’s a fan-made Star Wars Lego custom that deserves an “Impressive. Most Impressive.” it’s definitely this. (Via Obvious Winner)

Under his tenure Topless Robot was covered by Gawker, Wired, Defamer, New York magazine, ABC News, and others, and his articles have been praised by Roger Ebert, Avengers actor Clark Gregg, comedian and The Daily Show correspondent John Hodgman, the stars of Mystery Science Theater 3000 and Rifftrax, and others.
