We’ve seen all kinds of cool LEGO custom sets over the years, ranging from The Addams Family mansion to the Golden Girls’ Florida home. But this latest fan creation might just take the cake, as a fan going by the handle Brick Project has created a mini Disneyland using only LEGO bricks. Although not every famous attraction from the Happiest Place on Earth gets represented, most of Disney’s most iconic elements are here, like Main Street USA, Sleeping Beauty Castle and Space Mountain. And if it gets enough votes, the LEGO company may just make it available for fans to buy.

According to the creator, they “tried to represent the different rides with a huge scale so I was able to put a lot of details in the creation. So I created The most iconic element, the Disney castle and several other rides like Tower of Terror (Disney Studios), Space Mountain (Disneyland), Mickey Wheel (Disney California Adventure), and Big Thunder Mountain (with rail tracks) from Disneyland. I also added the shop street (Main Street) and the train station which represents the portal of the park. There is no interior in the builds (except Big Thunder Mountain) but I will try to add some as soon as possible.” Some Disney micro figures will probably be added as well.  Approximately 2200 bricks were used to create this model.

Brick Project acknowledges that this is also a fantasy version of Disneyland (“Dinseyland,” even), with elements from other Disney parks combined to make one ultimate version of the theme park. Thus, you have Tower of Terror next to Sleeping Beauty Castle and other changes from the actual Disneyland layout. Each attraction is connected with a grey road, which you check out on the virtual tour. And to see detailed photos of the Disneyland project, be sure to check out the images down below in our gallery.

I had just finished my work at Black Enterprise’s Entrepreneurs Summit conference in Charlotte, North Carolina. Exhausted, yet exhilarated over meeting so many people of color with entrepreneurial dreams, goals, and pursuits – I retired to my hotel; happy and tired. As I do so often on a business trip, I kept the TV on to news. Calculating about six hours of sleep before I had to get up to work again, I was jolted in the fifth hour. CNN broke the news that its celebrated travel journalist and on-location bad boy, Anthony Bourdain, was dead.

I am a foodie and a huge fan of chefs. Being an atrocious cook yet one who can make something palatable by fanatically following a recipe as closely as a programmer writes code, I am enamored of those who take the time to make the stuff that keeps our bodies alive and also bring the deliciousness. Or, enamored of those who can tell us where to find the delicious food and why it is to be appreciated. Hence, my almost 15-year devotion to Bourdain; not only as the ultimate foodie, chef, and adventurer, but as a profound, soul-stirring writer.

I met him first as did many, by reading his best-selling book Kitchen Confidential. I was enamored. This tall, white man, so prepped to receive all the goods that white maleness bestows- and so different from short, surly, black female me- resonated, He owned up to his privilege and did everything to experience what it was not like to be born so privileged,

From his show “No Reservations” to his CNN stint in “Parts Unknown,” Bourdain wanted to experience and show a world outside of the one in which he was raised. This eternal globetrotter always seemed to say, “Hey sheltered white people; here is a world, a culture, burdens you have never known” without any hesitation or pretense.

Tony Bourdain was the epitome of the 21st century Renaissance Man. Many of us, including people of color, admired him. He had the gift of bringing us cultures different from ours, and without any  condescension.

Anthony Bourdain mattered. A former junkie, someone who knew what is was to be in debt, someone who went through divorce – he was so many of us. And yet, in his too short life, he touched so many and brought different peoples and cultures together in ways no one else could.

Please, if you are suffering from depression or suicidal thoughts, get help.
