Well, at least for a weekend.
James May, one of the three dudes on Top Gear , is branching out from silly car tricks to silly house tricks on his show James May’s Toy Stories. The project is already underway, with a metric frickload (roughly 3 million) of the colorful plastic bricks waiting for construction to start at the site in Dorking, Surrey.
May has invited “the general public” to assist in building the structure, and is soliciting donations to ensure that there are enough bricks available to complete the house. The plan is to include a full size working shower, toilet and staircase as the house will be two stories high. He discussed potential snags in the Lego-house concept with the BBC :
“I’ve got a man working on a flushing Lego lavatory. We think it’s possible.
“Things like power supply, sanitation and plumbing coming into the house are as they could be for a real building… everything within my Lego house must as far as possible be Lego,” he said.
After the Lego house is complete, May plans to build a full scale racetrack out of Scaletrix. Who doesn’t want to grow up to be this lucky bastard?
