Massive LEGO Cyberpunk City Built by 80 People! New Hashima at Brickworld Chicago 2023

[@TacoBricks]

Without a doubt this is one of the greatest Lego builds in history. I’m so proud of the work that Stefan, Simon, Mason, Michael and everyone else was able to do here, it truly is mind blowing. Thank you for having me be a part of the build and this amazing video, I’m so glad I got to be a part of this monumental build and I can’t wait to see what we do next!

[@fathergemme9529]

Was an honor to contribute and be a part of it all! Huge shout-out to Stefan for being the mastermind of the best collaboration in Lego convention history.

[@yolo_xenophone]

Is this the longest interview for a lego display? because that could be a Guinness world record in it’s own right!! 🙌

[@BeyondtheBrick]

Yes, it's by far our longest interview ever for a single display.

[@bricktoyguru]

@@BeyondtheBrickI’m happy it’s long, I want as much detail and depth into it as we can get because there’s just so much! So thank you

[@boxhead0130]

​@@BeyondtheBrickIt must have taken a lifetime to upload!

[@SeanNyte]

​@@bricktoyguru.... I completely agree with you about that thought process... With an amazing piece of Art on this scale, I definitely want as much detail into it as possible... I actually really enjoy interviews that take their time to explain the work that they put into the creation of their own contributions to this HUGE build! I have to say that I've never been able to do much with Lego ... I've just recently found videos like this one... I honestly didn't know anything about the GBC builds until a friend of mine sent me a link to the video for GBC 2022.. I won't sit here and say that I can understand everything that was put into this extraordinary piece of Artwork....

[@TheSoulFallen]

The camera work on this channel is unparalleled.somehow the camera man always knows what's being talked about without confusion and zooms in on que. Bravo.

[@BeyondtheBrick]

Thank you for the nice comment!

[@calmackk9560]

Bro, the camera man must have arms like columns to be able to hold the camera up for hours without shaking

[@DarkSim64]

I don't know if it's always the same cameraman in every one of their video, but he/she is definitely really good! Even when navigating tight spaces (thinking of Duckbrick's collection tour), we always get an excellent view of everything.

[@chubokuay590]

No lego build whether MOC or designer legoland display has floored me until I spent a majority of my convention time just ogling at this peak of the lego building system/AFOL community. Even give one angle just looking at this and you won’t get bored finding something new to appreciate. Worth my price of admission to see it in person, nothing like it. Absolutely legendary.

[@justcallmedevil267]

Absolute sick build. As a CP 2077/Edgerunner fan i got super excited seeing characters like Johnny silver hand or David Martinez with his jacket. Also this build truly encapsulates what I love about cyberpunk, the fact that no matter where you look something is happening. Congratulations to the entire team

[@StefanBuildsLEGO]

Thanks so much for sharing the build! My team and I are watching and loving it! Can’t wait for the next one!

[@BeyondtheBrick]

Incredible work!

[@KimJongCage]

No human could build this

[@cpafol]

Wow! What an insane build. I was also fortunate to interview Stefan! What a passionate team, having such talented builders from across the community.

[@pinkwheels3]

Thanks to Stefan and Simon to making this happen and letting me join in. Also shout out to all the great builders of New Hashima!

[@Beanzus]

Glad to have had the opportunity to contribute to this monumental collaboration.

[@rowia.builds]

I gotta give a shout-out to blake, stephan, simon,mason, and the whole crew! We went hard, and it shows!

[@TheCoolFactor]

No video will ever recreate the sheer blast of awesome seeing and feeling this thing in person. It was a sight to behold! History was made.

[@BlueBrick]

Nothing like this, you could look at it all week in Chicago and still find new bits and scenes. I’m so happy I was able to experience this!

[@pineconeeagleman6101]

Thrilled to have been a part of this!!

[@marcinmajewski8494]

This is the most EPIC Lego build I've ever seen. Big kudos to all the crew members who contributed to this achievement. I cannot see it live, so thanks for this through relation.

[@matttremblay8225]

Might be the coolest Lego thing I’ve ever seen

[@mrstardian]

This looks stunning, transports me to cyberpunk 2077 and both bladerunners immediately. The amount of hours gone into this is crazy. Congrats everyone who worked on it for making such an amazing MOC!! So many fun places for secrets aswell, perfect!

[@3sts246]

Nothing better than a rainy Sunday working on my Lego city watching a video about a PRO Lego city!

[@AK_Brickster]

I am in love with this build. Everyone I talked to at the show agrees that this is, objectively, the greatest MOC *ever* made from LEGO! The New Hashima team should be incredibly proud!!

[@dj__alien]

After following each builders progress over the past year and watching their Instagram pages of them assembling the city, I have been waiting for this interview to see all the tiny details. Fantastic build and fantastic collaboration! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@stephenschenider4007]

This is just so incredible. The vibes from everyone are so cool.

[@markkelso2583]

Amazing project! I've watched - from a distance, and occasionally in person - Brickworld Chicago progress and evolve since it's early days. It's been fun to see, year after year, the "raising of the bar" for collaborative projects. This is, IMHO, far and above the most complex and stunning collaborative work that the con has ever seen. Kudos to the initial creators as well as all of the myriad contributors to New Hashima. Wish I could've been there in person to see this next-level Lego masterpiece! Beautiful work, everybody!!!

[@accuratebrickinnovations]

The collaboration is vastly immense with this behemoth. This is making me want to participate and go rummage through pieces that are dormant in my collection and make a cube.

[@mzegeer]

there needs to be a crowd funded lego MOC museum(s)!

[@marshallcraft25]

Greatest lego build of all time

[@Daddy-Hundavar]

Loving energy for 2 and a half hours That is passion

[@J_Vion]

This is the best lego build i have ever seen. Would love to see it in person and spend hours looking at all the details.

[@calmackk9560]

did anyone else notice the david from cyberpunk edgerunners? 4:32

[@minTwin]

This is the greatest build in history! I want to live there!

[@vincer7824]

That’s exactly what I thought watching this. I want to play in that world!

[@0157978]

I have never seen anyone build such a large city with LEGO before.

[@jahirgg]

Thank you for showing in such details this spectacular build! Kuddos to the New Hashima team! Great video, I can"t believe it took 2:30 hours to cover this Mega MOC.

[@Roundtree_stuff]

I was not expecting that videobomb 0:58

[@Macil2018]

42:00 in, is that top crate on the side of the Maersk logo a Wayland Yutani reference?

[@therestingmitchface6241]

My goodness, I’ve been following a lot of process of building on IG. But wow this is insane. The final product is wild, incredibly well done. This is a true Lego cyberpunk city. I also love the custom jerseys for everyone

[@PatrickBroadnax-q5b]

A massive applause 👏 to all 100+ of yous ! Not only is this build unique and beautiful but just the challenges alone that come with working with 100+ builders is just as phenomenal! BIG UPS TO YOU ALL! Confirming the Lego world is truly limitless! Just MAGICAL! Well Done!

[@stefansauvageonwhat-a-twis1369]

Dang last time I saw it, I thought it was amazing and 45 minutes was long, but this is inspiring, im sharing this lol

[@thegreenbrick]

I typically don’t watch a KZbin video for over an hour, but I did with this one. I plan on watching the rest tomorrow! Great video!!

[@Ferkeertgespelt]

Shout out to the guy at @ 20:00 who brought examples and explains everything very well!

[@si-mocs]

YAY I"M USEFUL! :)

[@gfam5304]

This is mindblowing!! 🔥

[@jackyharuhiko]

Can’t like this video enough. The whole build is crazily amazing and should be put in a museum or to be displayed permanently. I love it so much.

[@VeraLucille]

Such props to BtB for making a 2 hour long tour of this historic collaboration and achievement in Lego. And it still didn't cover it all...

[@GrumpyJ83]

Simply amazing

[@Dazzletrain]

I haven't touched a lego since I was kid, I had built an amazing castle that took me a couple of weeks, my little brother completely obliterated it. It was devastating. I swore I'd never touch a lego again after that. Anyway, this shit is amazing, I am absolutely blown away by these creations. For some reason youtube suggested this even though I have nothing to do with legos.

[@Fanunic]

So excited to finally see this video! I've been avidly awaiting ever since the last iteration!

[@jessedesens5845]

Woah! I had to watch this through 3 days... At 2 1/2 hrs, this has got to be the largest collaborative I've remembered seeing from BeyondTheBrick... When the Dews went up, that truly was a significant moment for appreciation. Altogether, such a joy to see, even though I was certainly never there to see it.

[@kolanskiii]

wows jacksons train station was so cool! definitely the best part of the build! he has mad fits too

[@bsherman8236]

Omg this is absolutely insane work, i will probably dream about this build for a week or two

[@dcbourne]

This is really impressive. The train build is really good. I would love to see a speed build of putting this city together from all of the shipped in boxes. Great collaboration,

[@Packer221]

The builders did a time-lapse of the entire process that I’m sure will be posted somewhere soon

[@bimmerfan2126]

watching this being built was fun, so many people working on one project

[@Relhak11]

Just seeing this project was worth the entire price of the full convention badge. Absolutely incredible!

[@jakemcbrick]

Amazing Moc!

[@AR_119]

Ok. It's official. This is the coolest moc I've ever seen. Holy shit.

[@achannelhasnoname5182]

4:31 David Martinez spotted

[@BlackHawkBricks]

It was amazing to see this IRL! I got to see bts of Beyond The Brick interviews!

[@lakofiQ]

next addition should be a huge space port for smaller more personal ships

[@ItsMorphinTime1518]

Is there a website that shows and describes every aspect and detail of this build with pictures and text ? It looks like I could watch this cyberpunk city for hours and still miss so many details.

[@Rockerfo0]

This is hands down the best lego build ive ever layed eyes on, this makes me feel like im in High on life, Bladerunner, Cyberpunk, starfield, Ghost in a shell (film) and many more, they definitely delivered with this build and i really hope to one day see it in person!

[@Millyonar]

got the chance to see this in person, had to facetime call my dad to show him what i was looking upon, absolutely stunning build. words cant describe this build

[@DanilJha]

I'm in shock! Amazing!

[@scourgemeltface]

My favorite part of this is that they watched shrek during the group build

[@brokencigarette3017]

stunning

[@loremipsom224]

This is insanely well done! WOW!! Saw this at Brick Fair VA a year or two ago... this has grown so well.

[@fossil-bit8439]

Absolutely remarkable build!!! I’ve seen some absolutely incredible castle build that are just glorious pieces of art with all their details, but this is more impressive with what was thought out and used to make everything work! Castles have to be easier do to the structural builds. This though?! Man talk about making the impossible, possible! The original ideas that really make this a true to the genre Cyberpunk experience is second to none! Bravo guys!!!

[@Thijs.]

Wow wow wow what an impresive build, i hope lego themselves see it because this really deserves some credits

[@Ferkeertgespelt]

This is art. Should be out in a museum

[@Cainexavier]

Mind-boggeling

[@MovieMaker1040]

This build is absolutely incredible.

[@p-chan3319]

This is insane. Most impressive build i have ever seen. Being a massive Akira / Blade Runner fan, i approve ^_^

[@santaclause7394]

Amazingly detailed, Bravo.

[@zachhekala]

This actually belongs in a museum! This is a masterpiece!

[@josiahvonb3426]

It is my dream to just make a fraction of this build, this build has to be the greatest moc in history. I thought the original build that inspired the ninjago city line was the best moc ever but they have far exceeded that.

[@sempervelox]

I’ve been watching this video the past two days in smaller portions. I just have to set this is absolutely unbelievable, I hope I get the opportunity to see this in person one day.

[@JayVR3434]

Madness...absolute madness...and I love it ❤...best one ever!!

[@jamesallred460]

This build is incredible. Like, wow. I'm stunned. Excellent work!!!

[@coltongough4162]

Words can not describe how amazing this build is

[@KJF-ny]

2:13:40 I thought it looked like the agency buildings in Albany. Great interpretation of them!

[@gaberichardson2943]

Supreme Collectors Series

[@GREGZILA3000]

I hope Lego understands how well their products look in a cyberpunk build, hopefully we see some Cyberpunk Themed sets in the future!

[@calvincampbell64]

Amazing

[@Pedrift0]

I think the only problem is that the water is blue, it doesn't match the cyberpunk atmosphere

[@marshallcraft25]

Imagine a stop motion movie in this city 🤩

[@ISOTT78]

AWESOME !!!

[@armandlievre5809]

Just incredible!

[@BetaBrick]

Absolutely breathtaking! Wish I could have seen it in person. Can't wait to see what happens in the future!

[@Earth1nhabitant]

Absolutely beast setup love it

[@Atomicjedi]

This was AMAZING

[@Bricksnaps]

Did John have to change the camera batteries like old school con tours

[@BeyondtheBrick]

No, the battery lasted for all 2.5 hours! One take wonder.

[@brucelucas1756]

This build layout is absolutely freaking awesomeness, there's parts on there that I've never knew existed before. And the building techniques are outstanding, it's definitely worth the two and a half hours of viewing. 😲😍

[@sargenthound8803]

This is beautiful

[@VeraLucille]

Next year you guys should make the main video with the talking be while the lights are off! It's so scenematic! 🤩

[@easytoremember8613]

Hats off to the camera guy for holding the camera in 2 hours

[@sargenthound8803]

This is why lego is the best toy

[@BrixfanPlays]

So many talented builders and their incredible Mocs

[@tylertichoc7330]

Now I can't wait for a to scale model layout of New Ninjago city after The Merge with bits of the different realms like from The Adventures of Clutch Powers with the Lego Explorers Tower, Chima with a mishmashed Artificial Mount Cavoura, R City from City Adventures, and some bits from Hero Factory Makuhero City along with some of the other old discontinued themes like Power Miners, Atlantis, Space Police 3, Galaxy Squad, etc.😅

[@thegreenbrick]

Saying that this is amazing doesn’t do it justice. Love it! I’m getting a final fantasy 7 vibe.

[@gfam5304]

🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@sonnigundbelanglos]

This is amazing! It really developed great since last time!

[@anotherdarcy]

I think this wins the title for most insane lego build ever.

[@BrickBear83]

Totally AWESOME! Lots if inspiration here!

[@omdraws7325]

Truly awesome
