Aardman Studios worked closely in partnership with LEGO to get all the details just right for this brick-built model. We were able to participate in a round table talking with the LEGO Designers and Fan Designer for an inside scoop.
🔎 We learned about extra Easter eggs in the interview. Subscribe to our free weekly newsletter to get the exclusive! 🔗 on our home page.
Did you know that Aardman sent over lots of reference material, so the set is the same size as the movie prop?!
🚨 NEW PRINT ALERT: Both Wallace and Gromit have printed eyes on a 1×1 dome that best capture Aardman’s look. This required LEGO to create new technology to print on such a tiny, curved element! Although the eyes for Wallace and Gromit each come in separate bags, we only had 1 extra eye.
Production of the final set was just under a year from the fan model to finished product – lightning speed!
Stay tuned for our review of Wallace & Gromit, coming soon! For now, tell us your favorite Wallace & Gromit movie and why is it the Wrong Trousers?
