typical, viral marketing. it was a styrofoam boulder covered in bricks ( maybe )

its definitely styrofoam, i have seen photos of it taken by a bystander.
and even if it were solid throughout, there is still no way it could be "5 million" as they claim....
any of you who have the DK Ultimate LEGO book, take a look at the section about art and sculpture. compare the sizes of the sculptures and their part counts and you will soon see what i mean.

from boingboing comments:
It's viral from the Sausalito marketing group "Butler, Shine, Stern & Partners". The YouTube account holder google's to an "office food blog" which shows him in the background of BSSP. They have the LucasArts games account. They're located on Liberty Way which I've worked in the same building and recognized it from the photos. As soon as I revealed this on the YouTube comments section I got blocked and the posts were deleted. The initial "behind the scenes" photo on flickr was also taken down. It was CC so I mirrored it on Flickr and attributed the owner (as per CC guidelines). Of course - he had kittens over that. He claimed that Gizmodo violated Creative Commons and some such ********. Gizmodo also linked to the source so that's a stretch of an excuse. **** the phonies.
