The NF-15B Research Aircraft by Mammalucco is the latest project to hit 10,000 supporters on LEGO Ideas. It is based on the NASA flight test aircraft which has since been retired. This model features many details as the real aircraft and has about 5,000 pieces.
It now joins Gilmore Girls – Luke’s Diner and Wonders of Peru as the projects to reach the Second 2017 Review Stage.

5000 pieces? I thought the limit for Lego Ideas projects was 3000…
Well, I guess it won’t pass then. Or they’ll redesign it to work, the model does seem to be a bit wasteful on piece count
To bring this under the piece count, they may use nasty stickers for the stripes on the wings and tail. I hope they can find a way to avoid this as it’s a great effort that I supported.
I just don’t see where 5,000 pieces went. Unless the scale of the thing is huge of course. It’s a nice looking model though.
