Titled creature: The colossal giraffe spotted in Westfield.
The LEGO Discovery Centre Hamburg, which opened its doors six weeks ago in the HafenCity, has a new mascot - a towering Lego giraffe that stands at 5.94 meters tall and weighs 1.2 tons. The large, colorful creature, currently located at the Elbe promenade of the Westfield Hamburg-Überseequartier, has captured the hearts of many visitors, with people frequently stopping to take photos of it. However, the giraffe's name remains a mystery [1][2][3][4][5].
The LEGO Discovery Centre and the Hamburg Abendblatt are currently seeking a name for the Lego Giraffe, and the competition is open to everyone. Participants can suggest a name by commenting on the LEGO Discovery Centre's Instagram post. The winner will not only have the honour of naming the giraffe but will also get a unique opportunity to build the nameplate for the Lego Giraffe alongside Master Model Builder Robert Püschel [6][7].
The Lego Giraffe is made up of a total of 46,200 Lego bricks and was pre-assembled by Lego experts from the Czech Republic, Germany, and the UK in Kladno before its final assembly in Hamburg [4]. The pre-selection of the three best and most creative name suggestions will be made, and the winner will perform the official christening of the Lego Giraffe on site [8].
The winner and up to three other people will be invited to visit the LEGO Discovery Centre, a place that offers a variety of interactive Lego-based experiences for visitors of all ages [9]. So, if you think you have the perfect name for the Lego Giraffe and would like to visit the centre, make sure to enter the competition!
