GTA 6 has fans excited to say the least, and one young animator has channeled that excitement into a jaw-dropping project. FG_Artist, a 16-year-old known as LegoMe_TheOG online, spent nearly a month crafting a shot-for-shot LEGO recreation of the game’s second trailer.
Every frame of the original trailer, which racked up over 475 million views in its first 24 hours, pulses with the neon-soaked chaos of Vice City, a fictional stand-in for Miami. FG_Artist didn’t just mimic the visuals; they rebuilt them brick by brick. From Lucia’s gritty prison cell to jaw-dropping aerial sweeps over swamps and city streets, every scene in FG_Artist’s Grand Theft Auto VI trailer remake is pieced together with real LEGO bricks and brought to life through painstaking stop-motion animation.

Some backgrounds mix in procedurally generated bits with classic LEGO builds, but the soul of this project is its hands-on craft. Unlike YouTuber Max Justh’s AI-generated LEGO-style trailer, which sparked buzz but also backlash, FG_Artist’s work pulses with raw human hustle, earning props for its “unbelievable” authenticity that feels like it leapt straight out of a LEGO dream.
This isn’t some weekend doodle—FG_Artist, a teenage animation prodigy, sank weeks into syncing every shot with the original GTA VI trailer’s rhythm and framing. Sure, the finished project is polished, but this was most certainly a grind that demanded extreme patience: nudging tiny LEGO figures into place, fussing with lighting, and snapping frame after frame to capture Rockstar Games’ cinematic flair.
FG_Artist’s no rookie when it comes to LEGO animation. Their reel boasts a slick remake of the Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse trailer, proving they’ve got a gift for turning big-screen epics into brick-built bangers.
