Behold! The glory of the Lego Giraffatitan
For our wedding anniversary last year (30 years!), Fiona gave me the very wonderful Lego 21320 kit, Dinosaur Fossils, which builds into impressive skeletons of Tyrannosaurus, Triceratops and Pteranodon. This is a truly great kit and I’d encourage anyone to go out and find one.
But you know what’s even better that Lego Tyrannosaurus, Triceratops and Pteranodon? Lego Giraffatitan.
This is not a kit you can buy, but a rebuild of 21320, using free instructions provided by someone going by the name LegoFossil. I don’t know who that person is, but I salute him or her!
Part of what’s beautiful about this is that it’s not just any old Giraffatitan, it’s very recognizably the specific mounted skeleton in Berlin, with the same pose and the extra skull down at ground level where you can actually see it. But more than that: in a way I can hardly explain, it captures the spirit of that mount.
It looks great from lots of different directions. Check it out:
It’s not perfect — what is? The forelimbs are distinctly thicker in lateral view than the hindlimbs, where they should be pretty much the same. The scapulocoracoids are beautiful and big, but leave the ilia looking a bit anaemic by comparison. Limitations of the available connectors mean that the stride is somewhat exaggerated. But all these things are easy to forgive because it just looks so darned good.
That’s why it’s been sitting in the centre of our mantelpiece for the last seven months:
All hail the Lego Giraffatitan!
