WOW!! WOW!! WOW!! I am so jealous of some of these Lego towers!!!


I might take out my Legos tomorrow. Unfortunately, I don't have nearly enough pieces to make anything like some of the stuff in this thread! I wish I could win the lottery so I could spend thousand and thousands on Legos!!!



I did once build a unscaled version of the Willis (Sears at the time) Tower. I wonder if I have pictures somewhere . . . .

Have you tried bricklink.com? They've got a great variety of sets and pieces available.

(EDIT: Apologies - I must have been suffering from Male Pattern Blindness when I made this post)

Yes the Jin Mao model is very impressive. It and all of Spencer's completed micro-scale skyscraper models are on display at The Henry Ford museum in Dearborn Michigan until January.

Yeah, Devon's building that just broke ground this week is included in the Lego model being built in one of the local malls- it'll be cool to see how it looks on the Lego skyline.
