Another great and fun activities during the LEGO Pirate Event at Sun Plaza Medan was the Meet & Greet with LEGO Pirate. A giant costume of LEGO Pirate replica was made and it was a big wow for the visitors of the Sun Plaza Medan.

Take a look at how the kids & their moms surrounding the pirate for picture taking.

The teenagers were also keen to take pictures.

Another great fun for kids was that they were not only meeting the “pirate”, but they can be the pirate themselves. Supported by Professional Photo Studio, one of the largest photography studio in Jalan Iskandar Muda, Medan. With certain amount of purchase of LEGO products, the kid was entitled for one photo session in pirate costume for free. We had hundreds of photos taken on this 3 weeks event.

This is to continue the previous post on LEGO Pirates Event in Sun Plaza, Medan, Indonesia from 22 June – 12 July 2008

In this post, I will try to describe the process of building the giant pirate.
The pirate was divided into several parts :
- The pirate hat
- The pirate head
- The pirate body
- The pirate legs
- The parrot

In this LEGO Pirate Events, we invited kids from Kingston School, Medan to help the process of building this giant pirate. Due to its complexity (for kids), the pirate body was built by the employee of LEGO sub distributor in Medan, while the head and parrot were already glued.

Take a look at the picture below for the process of building by the Kingston School students guided by our team member.
- Building the pirate hat.

- Building the pirate legs

Attaching the complete parts :
- First the leg

- Than the pirate body

- The pirate head

- The pirate hat

- And of course the parrot

Below is the picture of the Kingston School students with the pirate

The next part was moving the giant lego pirate built to the big showcase in the mall atrium.

LEGO Pirates is one of the best LEGO event ever held in Medan.

For 3 weeks, Sun Plaza guests experienced the “LEGO” environment.

Entering the mall main door, you will be greeted by “friendly” pirates from the mall customer service.

The main attraction of course will be the LEGO Pirate Showcase : a huge 6×8m2 display of LEGO City and the Pirates World

In the center of the showcase was the brand new 2.15m high pirates built up with 20,800 pieces of LEGO! The first pirate was built and exhibited in the US, and Medan has the honor to receive a brand new one from LEGO and be the first in Asia (2nd in the world) to show it off to LEGO fans in Asia.
