SUPER=03-Windsor, England
But look closely- this Mega Tech-nosaurus is made almost entirely of Lego
blocks.
It's 23 feet high and the big attraction at Lego-land.
The model is inspired by the 65 million year old Tyrannosaurus Rex-
It's made from more than one million black and gray lego pieces.
The Mega Tech-nosaurus took more than one week to assemble. It's the
largest Lego model ever-
The dinosaur is one of more than 40 Legoland attractions which include
interactive rides, live shows, and building workshops.
