Wouldn't it be a neat to have a play on the "golden" ticket and put say 3 of these in for a prize of $100,000? It would be a nice marketing gimmick that would basically self promote itself and cost a lot less then a tv air time.

The giant candybar itself is quite impressive, but aren't most of the accompanying models just slightly recolored Creator sets? In this image I see both the squirrel and eagle from 31004 "Fierce Flyers", a brown and red version of 31009 "Small Cottage", 6914 "T-Rex", and the one with the minifigures looks an awful lot like 40052 "Springtime Scene". That's a bit disappointing.

I do like how the candybars were built with secret compartments for the minifigures and additional pieces, though:

This should have released on April Fools as a joke and to launch a Cuusoo project. So cool.

I think they were all made to look like they are made of chocolate.

Yeah, I wasn't commenting on the recoloring so much as the direct copying of existing sets.

Seems like someone who works for Kit Kat said, "Holy moly that LEGO Movie sure is popular. What could we do to capture some of that publicity!?" Person 2 said, "Build a giant LEGO set that's kind of pointless?" Person 1, "YES!"
