Matthew Alton and his Lego Kraken
It’s Time LEGO Creators, Release the Kraken! Behold, the Kraken! The largest sea creature to exist, it has now taken the form of 2994 LEGO bricks! After a year of building by Matthew Alton and Robin Berk, the Kraken has finally been unleashed to LEGO Ideas to hopefully become a real LEGO product! But it needs support. It needs 10,000 people willing to click that support button. An account is needed, but it is free and no personal information is needed. Also, LEGO never sends any kind of spam or advertising to your e-mail. To support The Kraken with your vote, just go to the LEGO Ideas website and search “The Kraken”, or click on the following link and you’ll be taken directly to the page: https://ideas.lego.com/projects/8ae4ec8f-d49f-42c0-9c41-2ce0749e2482/comments_tab#content_nav_tabs The Kraken has plenty of fun action features, but the best part about the beast is that the features are mostly invisible. You can display the model without having to look at big “Press Me!” buttons dotted around. The action features are as follows: Removable tentacles with stands so they can be posed as if they’re coming out of the sea An inner ring of teeth that can be spun remotely Glow in the dark eyes for a creepy bonus Removable section on the top that shows detailing of a stomach underneath (the belly of the beast) complete with skeleton and an old captain’s hat Removable section on the bottom that contains small red pieces to simulate small injuries that the Kraken has had A tail that can be moved up and down to simulate swimming Two small boats to act as prey for the behemoth |
