Speaker 2: That's good. This features more than six million lego bricks.

9
00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:22,200
Speaker 1: I can't even get my head around six million lego bricks.

10
00:00:22,239 --> 00:00:26,439
Speaker 3: I have the calluses on my fingers to prove right bricks. So, yeah,

11
00:00:26,440 --> 00:00:28,440
Speaker 3: it's a lot. To give you an idea, It's like,

12
00:00:28,560 --> 00:00:31,960
Speaker 3: you know how the universal unit of measurement is Olympic

13
00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:35,320
Speaker 3: sized swimming pools. Yeah, that's what they always use things, right. Yeah.

14
00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:38,120
Speaker 3: Also shipping containers for us in legos. So this is

15
00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:40,360
Speaker 3: eight forty foot shipping container.

16
00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:41,159
Speaker 4: You're kidding.

17
00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:44,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, So you can imagine imagine a train going across

18
00:00:44,400 --> 00:00:46,320
Speaker 3: the nuther board yep, full of lego.

19
00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:49,199
Speaker 4: That is mind blowing. Yeah, and seeing some of the

20
00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:51,080
Speaker 4: stuff that I noticed. There's a bit of a teaser

21
00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:53,920
Speaker 4: for this incredible show on the news last night. It

22
00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:57,640
Speaker 4: does look incredible. Is this some real life velociraptive type

23
00:00:57,640 --> 00:00:58,440
Speaker 4: the kind of deal going on?

24
00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:01,080
Speaker 3: They're only the babies too, we've we've got our life

25
00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:03,680
Speaker 3: sized t rex. We only let the baby a life

26
00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:05,039
Speaker 3: sized t rex, we do, you do?

27
00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:05,520
Speaker 2: Wow.

28
00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:08,000
Speaker 3: But there's a brachiosaurus as well, which is even bigger.

29
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:09,040
Speaker 3: That's a bit long neck one.

30
00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:11,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, there's two sea containers in itself.

31
00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:15,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, totally, but wow. Yeah, it's funny that t rex.

32
00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:19,080
Speaker 3: Funny story, if if I may so, we kind of

33
00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:21,199
Speaker 3: we want to put them in interesting poses as well.

34
00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:23,039
Speaker 3: So the kind of like the t rex is chomping you,

35
00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:24,679
Speaker 3: you know, having a bit of a bite, and you're

36
00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:26,679
Speaker 3: posing it a foto with it stuff. You basically can

37
00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:29,039
Speaker 3: hop in its mouth, you know. I was in in

38
00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:33,039
Speaker 3: its mouth. Sounds strange, but fixing its tonsils with lego

39
00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:38,600
Speaker 3: bricks of course dentists, yeah, legod dinosaurudentists And turned around

40
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:41,320
Speaker 3: really quickly and I copped the top of my head

41
00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:45,040
Speaker 3: on a tooth. Anyway, so I had to go to

42
00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:46,840
Speaker 3: hospital to get a couple of stitches. It opened me

43
00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:48,920
Speaker 3: up pretty good anyway. The doctor's like, so what did

44
00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:49,160
Speaker 3: you do?

45
00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:50,960
Speaker 1: So?

46
00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:53,560
Speaker 3: He thought I was a bit out there made it up? Yea, yeah,

47
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:54,920
Speaker 3: I thought, okay, yeah, we've got one here.

48
00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:56,640
Speaker 4: Unlikely story over at the pub.

49
00:01:56,840 --> 00:02:02,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, so it's a genius idea, combining lego and dinosaurs.

50
00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:04,800
Speaker 2: It's a thing, you know, kids favorite things.

51
00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:08,600
Speaker 3: Totally. I'm lucky. I've got twin boys, so I had

52
00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:11,480
Speaker 3: no choice but to be into Lego and dinosaurs. Okay,

53
00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:13,959
Speaker 3: so combining them together is probably it's a bit of

54
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:15,280
Speaker 3: an evil genius move, I think.

55
00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:16,519
Speaker 4: Yeah.

56
00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:18,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, so ticks the boxes.

57
00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:21,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, and you've had this has been a sellout in Sydney.

58
00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:23,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah it is, and it's funny. Thanks to the

59
00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:26,040
Speaker 3: great people of Person to w Way, we're actually ahead

60
00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:28,880
Speaker 3: of sales of Sydney. So right, yeah, so hopefully we

61
00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:30,679
Speaker 3: can set a record over here, which is good.

62
00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:35,600
Speaker 1: So stupid question. I'm assuming these things come fully assembled.

63
00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:39,840
Speaker 3: Not a stupid question at all. No, so semi assembled.

64
00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:42,320
Speaker 3: Some of them are so big, like you have to

65
00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:44,760
Speaker 3: think about, okay, how big is the door that they've

66
00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:45,480
Speaker 3: got to get through it?

67
00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:47,119
Speaker 2: Well, you're going to have to take his head off.

68
00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:50,160
Speaker 3: So yeah, so they kind of come in come in sections,

69
00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:52,280
Speaker 3: if you're like big sections that were then put togethers

70
00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:55,560
Speaker 3: us about. It's a team of about fifty people. It

71
00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:58,720
Speaker 3: takes us about ten days to reassemble the whole phibition.

72
00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,680
Speaker 3: So it's like anton on a picnic and then put

73
00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:02,280
Speaker 3: it together.

74
00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:04,560
Speaker 4: The times, all the times.

75
00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:05,799
Speaker 3: Yeah, if you go to the website you can see

76
00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:06,800
Speaker 3: the beare putting it together.

77
00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:11,280
Speaker 1: I've seen Lego masters where someone's brilliant piece has fallen apart,

78
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:13,639
Speaker 1: you know, at the last second. Have you ever had

79
00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:15,880
Speaker 1: something arrive and you've opened it up and it's like,

80
00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:17,800
Speaker 1: oh my god, it's ruined?

81
00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:21,000
Speaker 3: A few times I had many many years ago. Now

82
00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:23,240
Speaker 3: I'm talking a long time ago. I made the Colosseum,

83
00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:25,440
Speaker 3: you know, as in Rome. The Colosseum, there's quite a

84
00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:27,480
Speaker 3: large one seat of a couple of meters in size,

85
00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:30,840
Speaker 3: and it got sent to the UK and I've got

86
00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:32,760
Speaker 3: over there and opened opened the crate up and it

87
00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:33,760
Speaker 3: was it was trashed.

88
00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:35,160
Speaker 2: Wow, that's a long way to go.

89
00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:38,600
Speaker 3: And yeah, it's I can just the thing that frustrates

90
00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:40,840
Speaker 3: me and the thing that I kind of annoyed about

91
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:43,560
Speaker 3: it is whoever the forkliff driver was that had a

92
00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:45,920
Speaker 3: great time with that crate. I wanted to be that

93
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:50,200
Speaker 3: guydudgeon and having a great to do it.

94
00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:51,880
Speaker 4: It's like sitting in the plane watching them throw your

95
00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:55,160
Speaker 4: guitar or cases around the thing. Can you tell us

96
00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:57,800
Speaker 4: a little are there any trade secrets to keep things together? Now?

97
00:03:57,840 --> 00:03:59,920
Speaker 4: You never use any glue when you're using Lego?

98
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:02,480
Speaker 3: Is that some of them we have to just for

99
00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:04,640
Speaker 3: safety sake, Like the t Rex for example, sake wewaghs

100
00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:08,800
Speaker 3: one point six times. So yeah, so you know you've

101
00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:12,120
Speaker 3: got to think about how to And also a lot

102
00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:14,200
Speaker 3: of these models are designed for people to go up

103
00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:16,680
Speaker 3: and harg and get a photo and pose and all

104
00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:19,080
Speaker 3: that kind of stuff. So so we do in some situations,

105
00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:21,520
Speaker 3: other situations we don't. But if you've ever do you

106
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:23,599
Speaker 3: remember the Lego movie from years ago? You have a

107
00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:25,960
Speaker 3: thing called the crackle which glues the lego together.

108
00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:28,520
Speaker 4: So was that very nice?

109
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:29,800
Speaker 2: Ryan?

110
00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:32,240
Speaker 1: Do you ever consult yourself out, like say, if I

111
00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:35,800
Speaker 1: wanted life signed z Indress Helper just for example.

112
00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:38,960
Speaker 3: I don't know if we've got enough bricks. He's a

113
00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:46,039
Speaker 3: pretty big man man. No, look, to be honest, we do. Really.

114
00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:48,599
Speaker 3: The trick about it is like any sort of art form,

115
00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:51,520
Speaker 3: the way we work is it's all about time and materials,

116
00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:53,280
Speaker 3: and to make a life size model of someone that's

117
00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:55,839
Speaker 3: a that's a pretty expensive proposition because it takes a

118
00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:58,560
Speaker 3: long time to do. So that kind of narrows the

119
00:04:58,560 --> 00:04:59,919
Speaker 3: field if you like, but if you're really like it,

120
00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:02,960
Speaker 3: ensure Yeah, be a good James Bond.

121
00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:06,000
Speaker 2: We took I think he'd be brilliant James Bond.

122
00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:08,960
Speaker 4: Yeah. Well, you've spoken before, We've all chatted with you

123
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:11,279
Speaker 4: before about the injuries you get from Lego. I've still

124
00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:12,640
Speaker 4: got the scars on my feet from when the kids

125
00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:12,960
Speaker 4: were little.

126
00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:13,600
Speaker 3: Yeah.

127
00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:16,440
Speaker 4: Do you ever custom make pieces for certain things that

128
00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:18,560
Speaker 4: you're building or does it have to be standard Lego?

129
00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:18,800
Speaker 1: Yeah.

130
00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:21,200
Speaker 3: Look, it's a bit of an it's not an official rule.

131
00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:23,120
Speaker 3: We have a rule book, by the way. It's not

132
00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:25,039
Speaker 3: an official rule, but it's an unofficial rule that we

133
00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:27,800
Speaker 3: only use standard Lego cases and colors. The reason is,

134
00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:30,039
Speaker 3: if you've got enough time, patients, and money, you could

135
00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:32,800
Speaker 3: make what we make. Okay, So that's kind of a thing.

136
00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:35,520
Speaker 3: It's aspiration. There's no point us making this crazy stuff

137
00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:37,400
Speaker 3: and a little kid comes along and goes, Mum, I

138
00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:38,679
Speaker 3: can't make that because those.

139
00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:40,120
Speaker 4: Pieces are special bespoke pieces.

140
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:42,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, we don't really do that.

141
00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:43,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's cool. Yeah.

142
00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:46,919
Speaker 1: Well I saw your exhibition at the Convention Center a

143
00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:49,360
Speaker 1: few years ago and it was just I still can't

144
00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:50,279
Speaker 1: get over the Titanic.

145
00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:51,400
Speaker 2: It was incredible.

146
00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:54,280
Speaker 1: I love the statue of David. So I'm looking forward

147
00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:57,680
Speaker 1: to Jurassic World. It starts at the Perth Convention and

148
00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:00,960
Speaker 1: Exhibition Center on September twenty four unths February next year,

149
00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:03,960
Speaker 1: so plenty of time to get everyone in the family along.

150
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:05,880
Speaker 2: Thanks for coming in, Ryan, Oh, great to be back.

151
00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:06,919
Speaker 3: It's nice to be in studio.

152
00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:10,560
Speaker 4: And what's your head on those dinosaurs?

153
00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:11,840
Speaker 3: Yeah,
