I just wanted to announce that NELUG now holds the offical record for fastest
time building the Imperial Star Destroyer. 10 NELUG members got together on
October 30th to break the German's record of 1hr and 2mins. Kurt Rachdorf, the
LEGO store manager, was there to record the time and make it official. Final
time was 54mins and 21.47secs. We shattered the record by 8 minutes.
To make things even better we did this as a public event in the middle of the
Solomon Pond Mall in Marlboro, MA. Kurt had a mini Tie Fighter build off
for the visitors who came by and several built Star Wars sets were on display.
