Proving that one can never have too many LEGOs, a four-person team constructed a perfect half-scale model (with moving parts) of a Rolls-Royce Trent 1000 turbofan jet engine. It took them eight weeks to build the more than 160 individual parts and then put them together to create the finished piece, which weighs 307 kg (677 pounds), is 2 meters (6.6 feet) long and 1.5 meters (4.9 feet) across (story and slideshow): http://www.gizmag.com/lego-jet-engine/23256/
