‘Star Wars’ fan builds epic LEGO Star Destroyer hangar bay




By Sean Curry
June 10, 2016

Hokey religions and ancient weapons might not be a match for a good blaster at your side, but even an uncivilized
firearm has nothing on an actual, no-kidding Star Destroyer hangar bay.

Need a pilot? We can’t help you. But if you need a to-scale replica of the hangar bay of the Star Destroyer Finalizer
from “Star Wars: The Force Awakens,” complete with TIE fighters, First Order Stormtroopers, and resistance fighters
Poe Dameron and Finn, made entirely out of LEGO, then we may have just the thing for you.

With working double gates and locks, the fun never ends.


By David Grossman

The Panama Canal, now over 100 years old, is one of the technical wonders of the world. If you've ever wondered how exactly it works, well,
wonder no more. Lego, the coolest company in the world, put out a new kit that can give you a working model.

is both the founder of a group called Panama STEM Education and a Lego Education distributor for Panama. She proposed the idea to Canal
administrator Jorge Quijano, who loved it.
