ENFIELD, Connecticut — Who doesn't love to build with Legos? But this is far beyond the normal range of the amateur: A person using the Internet alias "Crowkillers" has created a 2009 Chevrolet Camaro intricately designed completely out of Lego bricks. Pictures were recently posted on Brickshelf.com, showing the car fully equipped with a sporty paint job and even a six-speed transmission.
Crowkillers utilized the advanced Lego Technic pieces in an attempt to replicate the smooth Chevy lines. Thousands of pieces were employed to fit the Camaro with a replica V8, a pimped-out red and black interior and huge — relative to the model's size, that is — deep-dish six-spoke rims. Although this part is difficult to see on the computer screen, the Lego Technic pieces allow the Camaro to independently move without the help of a hand.
Considering the complexity of the design, it is doubtful that Lego will ever offer a kit similar to Crowkillers' masterpiece, and this is likely to be the first and last Lego 2009 Chevy Camaro.
What this means to you: We've been waiting so long for the release of the fifth-gen Camaro that Lego enthusiasts decided to take matters into their own hands. — Mike Lysaght, Correspondent
