This fan-made LEGO project was recently green-lighted by LEGO Officials and is set to hit production very soon.
Stephen Pakbaz is a huge LEGO geek and apparently he has also worked on the actual Curiosity Rover as well, which currently residing in Mars doing research for NASA. Stephen designed the LEGO Curiosity Rover and sent it out to the official LEGO team. And they were delighted to give it a go.
“I combined this first-hand experience with my Lego hobby to create a Lego model that was as faithful to the actual rover as possible in terms of accuracy, details and mechanical function,” said designer Stephen Pakbaz. According to New Scientist “The model has a working suspension system, an articulated arm and a poseable mast for recreating your favourite events in Curiosity’s ongoing mission.”
