May The Force Be With LEGOLAND

By Elie - 4:30 AM

Before you scroll down to read what this is all about, I advise you to leave this video playing so you get the entire feel to it.

Dun, dun, dun dun, dun dun dun, dun dun dun...

While I am no huge Star Wars fan, there is simply something that you can get from "The Imperial March" that absolutely gives you goosebumps each time you hear it. But hear ye if you're a huge fan of the force because something is coming up at LEGOLAND Malaysia on the 6th of September! If you're guessing there's a little Star Wars coming around then you're right on the target! 

Are you feeling it? Are you?

That's right, LEGOLAND Malaysia will be launching the LEGO Star Wars Miniland Model Display in conjunction with the resort's second anniversary. Nobody will be left in the sweltering heat however as a standalone complex that is fully air-conditioned has been built to house the 2,000 LEGO models recreated based on the popular film series on a 1:20 scale with over 1.5 million bricks used. Inside this octagonal building is where all force lovers will find seven of the most famous scenes in the film series - six from the Star Wars film franchise and one from the animated series, Star Wars: The Clone Wars.

Are you ready to step into the Galactic Empire?

Set with a specially designed pre-screening area for the LEGO Star Wars movie along with a walk down the Star Wars memory lane, fans of the force will find themselves staring at planets Christophsis, Hoth and Naboo just to name a few before going on a picture frenzy at the Hall of Fame with main characters such as Chewbacca, Darth Vader, Princess Leia and Yoda that stand on raised platforms and stand 85 cms high! Take selfies, you must. And if that itself doesn't seem to be enough, life-sized LEGO models of C-3PO, Darth Vader and R2-D2 made of over 80,000 LEGO bricks are also set to greet visitors as they step into the model display area.

Beep beep!

With models built in several locations around the world such as Malaysia, Germany and Czech Republic, each display will be featured with sounds, actions and lighting effects too so you actually get that realistic touch to an unforgettable experience especially if you're a Star Wars fan. I can almost hear the shrieks of Star Wars lovers now. Be prepared to put up a savings tub now because there's also a retail store in the complex where you can feed your inner Star Wars geek with endless LEGO Star Wars merchandises. 

 Tell me you don't want to see Darth Vader in his LEGO form. Tell me.

Costing over RM 6 million to build, the LEGO Star Wars Miniland Model Display is LEGOLAND's biggest development of the year and activities will be set throughout the entire September which includes free entries for children dressed as Star Wars characters and Annual Pass holders getting special previews from the 1st to 5th September 2014 as long as you sign up online and tell them you'll kill (not literally) to be there for the sneak peek before anyone else!

If at any rate you think I'm not even giving you good enough information about this amazing attraction, you can always check out www.LEGOLAND.my or call them at +607-597 8888 to know a little more than just this. I mean, I know where I'll be going in September at least.
