TheHong Kong Lego User Group, HKLUG, has joined in the Olympic craze, by making their own models of Beijing Olympic venues: The Lego Sport City. According to HKLUG's blog: 300,000 bricks and 4,500 mini-figures have been used to create this lego landscape, which has taken about 100 hours to build.
We are especially impressed with their tiny Go China! banner. (Look carefully at the wushu scene in the second picture) and the aquatic center.
More photos at the HKLUG blog and at The Brothers Brick (also here).

Also, you should never put an 's' at the end of Lego. They are Lego bricks, not Legos. Thanks!
