James May's LEGO House Nears Completion!

[85 Cutlass Brougham]

Top Gear presenter James May is building a full size house to live in made out of LEGO bricks! Sadly, it appears that the bricks are not the whole structure as it is stud framed, but it is still really a cool idea. I don't know about you, but I'd live in a LEGO house if I could.

I'd totally live in a LEGO house. I still play with 'em. Just the other night I built a minifig-scale Aerocoupe.

Try and drive the old Toyota diesel pickup through it, maybe?

It's not actually for Top Gear, but for one of May's other projects. He does so many cool programs of an educational nature on the BBC that it is a wonder he has time for Top Gear! I have watched several of them as flash videos online, and they are some of the best documentaries I have ever seen. Very informative. This one is for an episode of "James May's Toy Stories". He also built an entire garden of Plasticine ( Play Doh), a life size Supermarine Spitfire out of model airplane parts, The world's longest slot car track, etc. for this series. It has yet to air, and is supposed to start in October. I will be watching the online world to stream it as soon as someone puts up an illegal copy! :wink:
