With 4016 LEGO pieces it’s an extreme set built with different rooms, each portraying a different scene from the movie. Then one day I had an idea “What if I made something like that?

LEGO Mission Impossible 6 Helicopter Chase
Your Mission, should you choose to accept it… read this article about my LEGO Mission Impossible 6 helicopter chase scene. After seeing the action packed movie, I was inspired to recreate the epic helicopter chase scene with LEGO’s.

Fun fact, after filming the helicopter chase they had a total of 70 hours of footage which was whittled down to seven…
