Eleven Closes the Gate!

Iconic Stranger Things? Of course, the epic scene of Eleven closing the Gate! From the outside it looks like a random government lab building: Hawkins Lab.   Open it up in the middle to display the basement scene with Eleven and Hopper in the cage suspended in front of the rift; demogorgons are leaping off the platform. The lab window is shattered and, if you look closely (lift the roof) you can see the sensory deprivation tank.


This project was way too much fun for me! I had no idea whether I had enough LEGO to complete  both the lab and the gate as I planned. Thanks to my kids for letting me pilfer their stash; I was able to continually pull out black, tan and clear pieces.  The model measures roughly 40.6 cm deep x 31.75 cm wide and 53.74 cm tall (16”, 12.5” and 21”) to the top of the tallest antenae.  It was fun giving the gate a transparent look; the last detail was the suspended cage. I surprised myself by finding a Hopper look alike in my minifigure bin!
