PANDORA’S Box has opened at Milestones Museum in Basingstoke, releasing mythical lego beasts on to the museum’s replica streets.
From the six-headed Hydra to Pegasus, the winged horse, the mighty Cyclops to the Hipogriff of Harry Potter fame, this new LEGO adventure challenges visitors young and old to track down the escaped beasts and recapture them.
With wise Owl of Athene on hand to guide them, visitors to Milestones can use the accompanying Mythical Beasts at Milestones app and trail on their quest to find the beasts, return them to Pandora’s Box and save the day.
A total of 30 beasts and magical items have been built by professional LEGO building company, Bright Bricks, which is based in Bordon. Each model has been painstakingly put together by hand and more than one million bricks have been used.
In addition to the Mythical Beasts activity trail, there are other LEGO-related activities at Milestones, including a play area, mosaic and make and take minifigure, for which a small charge applies in addition to the usual museum entry fee.
The beasts will be on show until April 15 at the museum at the leisure park in Churchill Way West and is open daily, including Mondays April 2 and 9, from 10am-4.45pm.
