LEGO keeps upping the ante! The new LEGO World Art Map is a legit work-of-art wall piece and at 11,695 elements, it contains the most pieces ever included in a set in the LEGO Group’s history.
Even better, it comes with customizable brick-built pins to mark destinations you’ve already visited or future travel spots. With 40 interconnecting base plates, it can be arranged in three different ways so you can highlight your own favorite part of the world. You can also arrange the oceans to your liking, following the bathymetric mapping of the ocean floor in the instructions or creating your own water patterns.
Fitting of any art piece, the set includes a coffee table style instruction booklet, a white brick frame and two hanging elements so you can add it wherever you like. Of course, you’ll have to complete it first and at 25.5 inches high and 40.5 inches wide, your masterpiece will take some time. To set the mood, this product also includes an accompanying soundtrack with stories from travel experts.
