We’d love to do this in the office.

We’d also love $800 (€715) to spend on any LEGO set that we’re just going to destroy as soon as it’s complete. Luckily for the good folk over at WIRED, that’s exactly what they did over the Bank Holiday weekend, as they pieced together the humongous $800 Super Star Destroyer LEGO set all so they could smash it in super slow-motion. Why? To celebrate May the fourth, of course. https://youtu.be/PN_AMSlNocE?t=16s Unfortunately for us regular LEGO fans, the Super Star Destroyer featured in the clip is now a ‘retired product’, but it’s dimensions are still worth a mention. According to LEGO, this particular set features over 3,000 pieces and measures nearly 50 inches (124.5 cm) and weighs nearly 8 pounds (3.5 kg). You can check out pics of the retired set over here.
