BIGGER IS BETTER, AND GIANT IS BEST

While everything is cuter in miniature proportions, everything is even better when it’s bigger. Especially toys. Here are three larger-than-life projects that take the classics and blow up the fun just a little bit–ok a lot bit.

Giant Rubik’s Cube

It’s more than 2 feet by 2 feet and the man who created it uses it as a coffee table. Considering that it’s fully functional, you might not want to set anything on top–until the puzzle is fully completed of course.

Giant Lego Car

This 1997 Volvo went from boring to dorktastic–in a good way–with just a little paint and a studded hood. Buy this Amsterdam-based car or recreate the look on your own ride.

Giant Chess Set
If you have a black-and-white tiled kitchen floor, you know it’s good for only one thing–giant chess. These slot-together pieces can be broken down for easy storage after playing. Checkmate.
