Some of the models that will be showcased include a giant LEGO Arc de Triomphe, LEGO Empire State Building with Kong Kong, LEGO Big Ben, a LEGO Leaning Tower of Pisa and even a LEGO version of Michelangelo’s Statue of David.A spokesperson for the exhibition explained that this world-class exhibition has been exclusively curated by Ryan McNaught and his expert team. The Spokesperson went on to add that Ryan is the only LEGO Certified Professional in the Southern Hemisphere and one of only 14 in the world. Incredibly, ‘Wonders of the World’ took 4,944 hours to build
“I am beyond excited to debut the global premiere of my brand new exhibition, Wonders of the World, in Brisbane. This exhibition is like nothing that has ever been seen before, every model is brand new and infinitely more detailed than anything I’ve ever created,” Ryan McNaught commented “The exhibition is super interactive with lots of activities for LEGO fanatics to get involved in. Brickies will have the chance to build a statue of themself next to the mighty Statue of David and they can also help me build some LEGO cars for the traffic jam around the Arc de Triomphe. There’s so many hands-on things to get involved with – hopefully all the budding builders in Brisbane are up for the challenge!” added Ryan.
