From the article: "In all, the city required more than 100,000 Lego pieces,
which the company donated." Yowza!
I was disappointed to read that they made their roads out of construction
paper instead of the road plates. I bet they didn't use minifigs either.
The stuff about the "Cricket" sounds interesting. I wonder exactly how big
it is. It sounds like it doesn't really do anything you couldn't do with an
RCX, but evidently it is small enough to fit in a car. However, since it's
unclear whether the cars are at minifig scale, fitting in a car might not be
so great.
Anyway, interesting article.
