Not only does it appear massive, it kinda is. The wall itself if made
primarily from 2x4 Megabloks so it's very solid. I know it's considered
sacrilege by some to use "other" blocks (and the earthworks that the wall
sits on are primarily Tyco & Megabloks), but for me it was a cost issue. For
bulky items like the wall, I simply get much more wall-to-the-buck using
clones. Though the overall quality of the clones is so-so, it's good enough
for the wall, and I get to save the Real Stuff for more detailed creations
like the castle keep, and someday for city houses (a la your "subpar" MOCs -
which I consider better than par). Pictures to follow.... someday ;)
