  • Did some fag packet maths on that.

    (assuming Lego model is to scale, and would need same increase rate of bricks to build bigger)
    Lego Titanic is 1.35m long and has 9090 bricks to build it.
    Real Titanic was 269m long.

    To build in lego at 1:11 scale would be a 24.45m long and need around 164630 bricks.
    If the pricing was scaled accordingly, Lego would be asking for £10,323.33.

  • 1.35m long and has 9090 bricks to build it....at 1:11 scale would be a 24.45m long and need around 164630 bricks

    Nah, brickage scales as the cube of linear dimension, so more like 50 million bricks, although you could reduce that in bulk areas by using larger bricks.
