LEGO Has Released 'The Globe' for Consumers to Build and Enjoy
Colin Smith — January 24, 2022 — Pop Culture
LEGO has unveiled its newest collector's item, 'The Globe.' This item is a globe made entirely out of small LEGO bricks. The Globe features a stand, the ability to rotate on an axis, and labels on each of the continents and oceans, all made out of LEGO bricks. On top of this, the labels on The Globe are illuminated with a glow-in-the-dark material, which gives the product a stylish look in a dark room.
While LEGO products are often regarded as children's toys, The Globe is a product enjoyable for adults of all ages as well. The globe is comprised of 2,585 pieces, which means it will take hours to construct, though this is part of the experience. For consumers who want to add a little bit more to spice up their globe made of plastic blocks, the outside of this LEGO Earth features LEGO pegs which allow owners to add their own LEGO pieces as design, such as a boat on the Ocean.
The Globe is available on LEGO's website for $199.99 USD while supplies last.
