THERE are more than 9,000 pieces in LEGO’s Titanic kit, but that hasn’t stopped one of the toy line’s enthusiasts in North Carolina from constructing the gigantic model in world record time.
Paul Ufema (pictured), who hosts the YouTube channel ‘All New Bricks’, documented the Guinness World Record-win in a time-lapse video which shows him assembling the whopping vessel in 10 hours, 46 minutes and 31 seconds.
The Titanic kit is LEGO’s biggest, with its 9,090 pieces fractionally surpassing the 9,036-piece LEGO Colosseum, which Ufema was also previously the world record-holder for.
He also came agonisingly close to setting a record for the construction of the Star Wars Millennium Falcon spaceship last year, but accidentally missed one piece during the build which disqualified him.
