How do these wonderful creations come about? are the parts custom made? Is it an actual kit you can buy?

Will i ever have a place big enough to fit LEGO Fuso?

Will the ladies be impressed?

I still have several hundreds (thousands) LEGO pieces safely stored...

I think (and see) that they used standard LEGO bricks combined with some specialized LEGO sets (in order to get some specific items like gun tubes)... for example that is visible on "Fuso" model... the "Yamato" model, on the other hand, uses standard long bricks for gun tubes...

If they had this when I was a kid, my mom would've had me sent to a little rubber room somewhere, hoping that my I did not infect my dad.

Maybe I can show it to my dad now..........
