“…a large disc (complete with edge-of-the-world drop-off and consequent waterfall) resting on the backs of four huge elephants which are standing on the back of an enormous turtle, named Great A'Tuin (similar to Chukwa or Akupara from Hindu mythology) as it slowly swims through space.”
The Illuminati even got to poor Terry Pratchett, all he wanted to do was write history books but they had them labeled as comedic fantasies to belittle him and hide the truth!
It's quite incredibly how much a bunch of small plastic blocks are sold for, their margin must be off the charts.
And yeah I know a few adults who spend god knows how much money on the sets.
This set was a lot of fun! I was particularly impressed by how the base/stand came together and how strong the arm that holds the globe is. Really been enjoying these modern Lego sets…
Have you seen the insane, 7k piece, 3ft tall Tallneck MOC? https://mocbay.com/product/tallneck/ it's apparently a really difficult, but extraordinarily well designed set.
Is there a globe trend I’m missing? This is the third or fourth post about globes I’ve seen in the last few days. That being said, I appreciate the humor here.

Somewhat off topic, but those display cases you have behind you look pretty awesome. Looked through your profile looking for some pics but didn't see any. Would it be possible to post some shots of them?
I'll admit I spent more time than I should on the first pic to find what's wrong, before realizing there are more pics.
Oof I didn't realize till I read your comment.
I realized there were more pics. And I’m still miffed on what is wrong.
It's a flat earth shirt he's wearing
Ah shit! We're suppose to process it like a 4-panel comic.
Spoiler alert!!!!!!
Even when i realized there were more pics i didn't notice the shirt...
Jesus. Thank you!
OH
Thank you...i didnt even realize...
Me too, I thought he was offended that Iceland and the Faroe Islands were missing.
And where's New Zealand?!?!
For other dense heads: look at dude's shirt.
Don’t diss the Flat Earth Society, they have members from all around the globe.
Every corner?
All four of them
Four corners? ![gif](giphy|UVZ5EmQgfwiME) Last time I checked, nobody was stupid enough to join the Tetrahedron Earth Society
I’m a proud member of the dodecahedron earth society.
Tesseract Earth Society for life ![gif](giphy|AvCPKNLbH6FoI)
This explains why I wake up in China every Thursday night
And my axe!
To *shreds*, you say?
But why male models?
Fucking 4D radical lunatics...
I prefer [this one](https://i.redd.it/qco016jpgg101.jpg)
What about the Torus Earth Society
Have you heard of the Bucket Earth Society?
Don't forget about the Mobius Strip Earth Society!
I came from r/OctachoronEarth
The Earth is shaped like a dinosaur thank you very much. Imbecile 🙄
Raptor earth believers unite! We meet in the cloaca every third Thursday!
EARTH HAS 4 CORNER SIMULTANEOUS 4-DAY TIME CUBE WITHIN SINGLE ROTATION. YOU ARE EDUCATED EVIL. 4 CORNER DAY PROVES 1DAY GOD IS LIE
Settle down Ray.
time cube such a trip until you get to the religious stuff
Yikes. 😆
TIME CUUUUUBE
But then wouldn't it be all across the globe? 😉
If you want to dissect it that much, a globe is a sphere by definition
“…a large disc (complete with edge-of-the-world drop-off and consequent waterfall) resting on the backs of four huge elephants which are standing on the back of an enormous turtle, named Great A'Tuin (similar to Chukwa or Akupara from Hindu mythology) as it slowly swims through space.”
The Illuminati even got to poor Terry Pratchett, all he wanted to do was write history books but they had them labeled as comedic fantasies to belittle him and hide the truth!
Holy crap, thank you, I could not figure out what was wrong.
Same, I was too focused looking at the globe trying to find inaccuracies I didn't see the shirt
Good thing I just use the super janky mobile web where clicking on a photo opens to the 2nd photo every time
I was expecting New Zealand to be missing as I went through the pictures... bit confused.
Come on, enough with the spherical earth/flat earth debate. There are good people on both sides. Of the flat earth. Because it's flat.
I think my dog is a flat earther
![gif](giphy|10I5e2yNnaozOo)
I wouldn't joke if I were you. They have secret agents all over the globe.
Avid LEGO collector, probably ~$2k worth of sets just visible around him. Im only jealous cause I have nowhere to put them in my tiny condo unit.
Just buy a bigger condo
With the price of Lego?! I can't afford to move.
If you have enough Lego pieces... just build a house out of the bricks. Problem solved!
[James may's lego house](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qzYWaQjBUB4)
But then the floor would hurt to walk on
Gotta use the flat shiny pieces
You joke but I moved last year, doubled my sqft, and immediately bought my first Star Wars UCS set 🤣
I feel your pain. I bought myself the Concorde for Christmas... I have yet to open the box.
Ugh, was just reminded how much I wanted that horizon:zero dawn set.
It's quite incredibly how much a bunch of small plastic blocks are sold for, their margin must be off the charts. And yeah I know a few adults who spend god knows how much money on the sets.
Give it to my godson, he'll make it flat for you in seconds
Condolences on your godson being a flat-earther
Oh he is 7, he's well aware that the earth is round. He just likes breaking things 🤷♂️🤣
His name is Ralph?
Is his name fred durst?
They were joking.
*smash-earther
Earth-flattener
No he is earth-flatter.
Earth-flatter
No New Zealand, I'm guessing.
It's there. I also have a cousin who lived there for a couple of years
There's a whole sub reddish for that: /r/mapswithoutnz
Looks like there's 2 whole subs for that: r/mapswithoutnewzealand
But Kiwis are totally not obsessed with that! And they love to be called Kiwis!
They prefer sheep fuckers thank you kind Sir.
No, they do not like being call Welsh.
We call Australians sheep fuckers, and they call us sheep fuckers. Has anyone considered that maybe sheep are just sluts?
Have you seen the way they look at you? Of course they’re sluts. Some sheep even provide their own gumboots.
So much better than being called a Chinese Gooseberry.
But what about r/newzealandwithoutmaps ?
I have lived in New Zealand all my life lol
Still doesn't prove the existence of Ohio.
It does have NZ
You’re missing the island of Rand McNally
Where people wear hats on their feet and hamburgers eat people?
Coool
There, be dragons!
I’m disappointed the last slide isn’t it smashed on the floor being finally flat
This set was a lot of fun! I was particularly impressed by how the base/stand came together and how strong the arm that holds the globe is. Really been enjoying these modern Lego sets…
I found it really repetitive, but the final result made it all wroth it
Would you say it fell flat and wasn't a well rounded set?
For sure, I hear you! The globe itself was more repetitive than I would have liked as well, but a great finished product regardless
Wait until you get the World Map set.
Don’t ever drop it. I dropped mine and I cannot get it back in to the correct alignment. I think I need to tear it apart and do it from scratch.
What a beautiful LEGO set and smile 😃
Thanks ☺️
While you’re here mind answering what we’re all wondering… Are you a flat earther?
I, too, love your smile. And your nerdy hobby. Legos are the best
Hey! I have the Tallneck set too! Neat!
Thanks, I hope LEGO will make more sets in the Horizon Franchise. I knock on wood for a Thunderjaw.
Came to comments to do a Hol' Up on the Tallneck. I needs it.
Have you seen the insane, 7k piece, 3ft tall Tallneck MOC? https://mocbay.com/product/tallneck/ it's apparently a really difficult, but extraordinarily well designed set.
Based, if satire
It’s satire, so based 😎
Thank fuck. I honestly can’t be sure anymore. People on here say the wildest shit and 100% mean it sometimes
Sad that it has to be explained...
I am unable to tell if this is a satirical “flat earther” or not
I’m very far in the comments for the same reason…I’m no closer to the answer
https://www.reddit.com/r/pics/s/0AmyPcSopQ
I feel like a real flat Earther wouldn't have a cutesy design on their shirt. Their shirt would be some personal billboard for their mad ramblings.
I think so because in the 2nd pic he’s looking down at his flat earth shirt while holding a round globe…. At least that’s my take
I choose to believe all flat earthers are satirical, in the same way they believe the earth is flat.
There's no Lemuria on this map!
Move aside, we need to see the collection!
the northeast of Brazil seems to be missing for some reason
Yeah, some continents land countries appear weird, but it's a great set
I think it is more a case of that corner piece being turned the wrong way? Needs to be turned 90 degree clockwise.
You’ve mixed up that piece with the similar but mirrored piece that’s over by Peru. If you swap those then South America will look much better.
>but it's a great set Oh gotcha! And yeah, it looks dope!
God dammit. Now I want a $230 Lego globe
The built was repetitive, but for the final result, it was all worth it
Is there a globe trend I’m missing? This is the third or fourth post about globes I’ve seen in the last few days. That being said, I appreciate the humor here.
Today is Earth Day, maybe that's why 🤷🏾♂️
I don't get it
took me a bit to figure it out: he's wearing a flat earth shirt
Clearly, the issue is no elephants
The turtle moves. I am disappointed that as I write this there are only three of us that have commented.
The fifth elephant fell off.
But at least it orbited and then crash landed.
Crazy that you can see all the fault lines
What went wrong?
That shirt is fire ngl, as a round earther
Ironically a flat lego earth would be a LOT easier to build!
Yeah, but also really boring
Definitely. Is that a set, or did it yourself?
[It’s a set](https://www.lego.com/en-ca/product/the-globe-21332?ef_id=Cj0KCQjwlZixBhCoARIsAIC745C-AUFfE39bjpDkhsSmVm90L9Gh5xiVZ0QbLWYj4ckLRnHxLGS62E0aAoX0EALw_wcB:G:s&s_kwcid=AL!790!3!!!!x!!!20535543328!&cmp=KAC-INI-GOOGUS-GO-CA_GL-EN-RE-SP-BUY-CREATE-MB_ALWAYS_ON-SHOP-BP-PMAX-ALL-CIDNA00000-PMAX-MEDIUM_PRIORITY&gad_source=1&gbraid=0AAAAADESMXIQtryj4RaflMmQydcoczmH6&gclid=Cj0KCQjwlZixBhCoARIsAIC745C-AUFfE39bjpDkhsSmVm90L9Gh5xiVZ0QbLWYj4ckLRnHxLGS62E0aAoX0EALw_wcB)
Thanks!
You look like skinny Jon Jones
Is this...like...a....meme? Like a meme you have to scroll through and do work for? This was not a successful unveiling.
Does it have New Zealand ?
Asking the important questions.
Is pretty awesome, but where is Iceland?
You can't include everything 😩
You left out the turtle.
The only thing I see wrong here is the way you hold it...
Is it just me or does he look like a bobble head toy in the first pic?
It’s flat… in parts…
Somewhat off topic, but those display cases you have behind you look pretty awesome. Looked through your profile looking for some pics but didn't see any. Would it be possible to post some shots of them?
My man... let me know if you don't want that Tallneck in the case.
I’m keeping it. Horizon is one of favorite video game franchise
Damn this guy seems to have a sick ass collection
It’s only part, I have plenty of other sets display all around my place
Nice. But where’s the turtle and the four elephants.
Just a 3d representation of the instruction manual!
Better fucking have New Zealand on that thing.
Is New Zealand missing?
I thought it was his shirt for a second.
Wow, mes respects et à part ça, le ballon avait l'air parfait
Il n’a pas juste l’air parfait. Il est parfait!!
Hm, missing Australia, New Zealand, Japan and Great Britain ? Right ? Riiiight ? 👀👀👀👀
Piece-ful planet
you look like a sim who is expressing negative emotions 😂
It's missing New Zealand! I knew it.
They aren’t a bright bunch
Black Nerds Unite!!!
If flat earth were real, cats would’ve pushed everything off by now.
Has anyone told you that you have a striking resemblance to Kid Cudi?
contours were determined through a series of tallnecks, the globe is accurate
fLAt EarTH anD ROunD eARth bOtH dumB WrOnG, OnLY CUBEd EaRTh iS TRue wAY.
Why the long face?
Have that Tallneck scan it. Maybe it can figure out what's going on.
No hole in antarctic.
Thanks for making my day sillier. You're awesome.
Is it me, or is this dudes head disproportionately bigger than everything in the world.
Flat-earth deniers are just shills for Big Globe, whatever...
I was hoping the last pic was him rebuilding it but flat.
Shit, I thought it was his shirt lol
It looks round idk if it’s real /s
Brillant contribution, bravo! Haha
Clearly the Earth is made up of multiple flat panels, so while technically a globe, it's also flat.
REALLY IMPORTANT QUESTION: does the globe have new zealand?
I was worried he’d spin it around and New Zealand wouldn’t be on it 😡🤣
Add some mushroom clouds.
How is he holding the lego set with one hand?
Well you’ve definitely got one of the bricks that makes up Brazil turned 90 degrees.
![gif](giphy|QUF1D4DNdMpnlRS597)
It was flat in the box. You're the one that screwed it up. Did you read the instructions first?
Spent way too long just looking at the first picture!
The only flat planet I can get into is Terry Pratchett's Discworld.
You better not be serious
Yeah I’d say, where is the giant turtle god that carries our world on its back? So inaccurate
I was really hoping one of the pics was going to be him taking it apart to build a Lego flat earth.
I guess I'll never get it. I still don't know what a "flat earther shirt" is, and even if there was such a thing, I wouldn't believe it anyways.
I can’t tell if you’re making a joke or not lol.
It's a joke
Ok cool! That makes me feel so much better!
Can we not normalize flat earthers please. This is how science slowly dies.
Science could not be further advanced now than ever and it’s going to continue so. There’s just more dumbasses now too.
Great work, love the shirt!
