90's called

I recently asked my dad to dig up my Lite-Brite from my garage so i could do some cool shit on it and put it in my house. I started Google-ing Lite Brites and this came up.... it blew my mind! So amazing!!!
From 2006:
26 year-old artist Mark Beekman recently completed his year-long project of creating the "World's Largest Lite-Brite." Measuring approximately 5 feet tall by 10 feet wide, over 125,000 original Lite-Brite pegs were used to recreate a 1:9 scale of Leonardo DaVinci’s "Last Supper." The structure, built entirely out of aluminum, supports the 50 square foot sheet metal "canvas" as well as the hand-made gold frame surrounding the image. The piece also has its own backlighting system utilizing Cee-Lite electroluminescent panels, which Time magazine has recently dubbed one of the "Best Inventions of 2006." .
