People working at Lego are awesome. This guys have taken the Bilbo Baggings home and created a miniature model of it, but not happy with that, they have recreated that same lego mini model into a real size piece using nothing but 2,1 million Lego bricks. This set among other Lego sets featuring The Hobbit movie are available on Amazon US / ES / JP
