I'm a huge fan of Lego.....and have been building with them my whole life....but this custom is one of the coolest models I have ever seen......I have always loved WWII battle ships and Star Blazers so it makes it more awesome

I wonder how much that Lego model weighs?????

It's probably really heavy, but not as heavy as you would think.

Later in the video it shows the construction of it ... the hull is hollow

The stats say it's 150kg. About 330lbs.

That's nice and all...but it's missing the Wave motion gun and engines

I would love to see a space cruiser yamato - techincally it's the undulation gun in japan

Me neither. Any good?

Many think it's one of the best Japanese animation series of all time. One thing to keep in mind is it was shot in the 70's so the animation style isn't frantic the way anime is. The backrounds are fuller and hand painted. speed racer is the 60's so there is better animation here but not by much. but compatred to animation of the same era from the US if will hold it's own (for instance the filmation tarzan or new adventures of batman). It's a shade lower in animation quality from the 80's us shows like Gijoe or he-man but again that is 5-10 years later

I was a fan of the show from the first time i saw it on TV in the late 70's and when it came out on tape I spent like 800 to get the whole series (a sizeable sum in my college days)
