Okay, this is just cool

No Neyland yet, but if they ever do one, I think it'd be worth having. Pretty awesome.

Pretty sweet. Hoping for Neyland soon! Can't do the great stadiums of college football without it!

Just noticed where he said that if you contact him he'll work with you on designing and building one for you.

$500 for legos?

I've seen much more money spent on much more ridiculous things.

i.e. Beanie Babies.

I mean, if you got money just coming out of your rear end, and want a unique collector item, it's pretty neat, no doubt.

I could go to 10 games for that price.

That's really not that much for Legos.

And before you go on some rant, everyone has some sort of overly expensive hobby that others don't see the point.

I worked with a last that bought 3, 100$ sets for her son for Christmas

Just buy the Legos and make it yourself.

Spend another $500 and buy a 3D printer. Sell for $100 each - bet a guy could sell 50 Neylands in a heartbeat.

Large is $485. Small $65.

As far as the Legos, it would be a cool project with the kids or something, but I was just surprised at the $500 price tag for the finished version.

These are not the complete stadium I dont think - it says 3D effect - (if anyone has would I would like to know) --- Danbury Mint made a nice replica of Neyland for 75 (and others), but no longer does but youre right 500 is quite high - could be because of a Lego movie being popular right now

Legos have been pricey for decades. Go down the Toys R Us lego aisle and price check a Millennium Falcon.

Then this guy would like to get paid for his time and craft. It's really not unreasonable.

You must have been buying Mega Blocks.

Some Lego sets are as much as $299!

This. 25 years ago I was the owner of a $200 Lego airport and a $250 Shell gas station with connecting parking garage. The train set would've cost me both Christmas and my birthday. Legos have always been pricey.

I'd buy the Penn St stadium just to step on it

Then send it back and say it broke

I just want to see him try to return Lego bricks because he crumbled his stadium.

I used to do stuff like this with Lego's and cards when I was 8-9 years old. Granted, not to this detail. Damn, I should have gone into stadium design/ architecture. Move over Art Vandelay!

I don't think anyone's ever stepped on more than one Lego and lived to tell about it.

I used to turn my mountain bike upside down, place those little fuzzy caterpillars in the chain, mumble something about the Geneva Convention and then crank them through the gears.

To each their own.
