As a few have noted in the Aussie Sales topic, the group that owns the LEGOLAND parks, Merlin Entertainments now own Sydney Aquarium. As a possible precursor to this deal, in late October a new sub attraction called LEGO on the Loose appeared at Sydney Wildlife World and Sydney Aquarium. I just moved to the area at the time so I didn't have time to go, but today I went to the Sydney Aquarium and to my surprise the attractions are still there. Does this bode well for a future Sydney LEGOLAND or at least an official store? I'd like to think so! :tongue: In any case, here are the photos!

Vandalism (or old age) highlights how these are made...

Lots of great stuff, a non-AFOL friend of mine from Sydney sent me some photos of these a couple of weeks ago, and it's nice to see some more shots of these fantastic builds. I really like that massive LEGO Great White Shark! Thanks for sharing these photos Sieggy! :thumbup:

They all look amazing! :wub:

The mosaics definitely are my favourite cause they look so life like.

But I dont think Zeus's abs look good in Lego. Though Lego would probably guarantee they are rock hard. :laugh:

Thanks for posting these mate :thumbup: Looks really nice and as you mentioned, hopefully bodes well for the future of a store. Apparently the Melbourne Myer is huge and has the first PAB in Aus as well, so maybe, just maybe we are growing enough.

Thanks. I saw this when I was in Sydney a few weeks ago, but gave it a miss as I've always found the Aquarium to be a tad expensive for what it is, so I'm pleased to see what they've got in terms of models.

Thanks for the comments everyone. :sweet:

I was there today and saw all the huge models, I wonder if the models are hollow or solid?

I believe a mix of both; ones such as the scuba diver I suspect has a very solid internal frame. I doubt any are 100% solid LEGO thought, but we do have a few people on this forum who work, or have worked, at the parks who would have a more accurate answer.

Well I have two kids so it was a new experience for them. I wouldn't go by myself... certainly not to see a few models! :laugh:

I think he's Poseidon or Neptune. :wink:
