LEGO Masters stars David and Gus WIN the show in a breathtaking season finale

It was a nail-biting finish to season three of LEGO Masters on Monday night. 

The contestants were given 28 hours to create whatever their imaginations inspired them to, for $100,000 in prize money.

It was between Gabby and Ryan, who built an impressive circus, and David and Gus, who created an elaborate forest scene. 

Also in the running were Owen and Scott, who created a Engineers versus Hippies, a scene in which bulldozers move in on a forest guarded by a wizard.   

When all was said and done, David and Gus took the crown, with their forest diorama, complete with deer and a pack of wolves, impressing the judges.  

‘The reason we went with deer, they have good storytelling features,’ engineer Gus explained to the judges. 

‘Winning LEGO Masters is unreal. I feel like I’m dreaming and about to wake up any second now,’ David said after his win.

‘To have had the chance of being invited to participate in LEGO Masters was one of the best moments of my life.   

‘I am over the moon to have been able to meet some of the most talented builders and amazing people I’ve known in my life and to share the final with two amazing teams,’ he added. 

Gus said: ‘I have had a hard time putting my emotions from winning LEGO Masters into words. 

‘I came onto the show wanting to push myself technically and creatively and winning the finale really makes me feel that I have done that.

‘It was amazing to be paired with Dave. He has an unbelievable LEGO brain and has the ability to put all sorts of things together.’
