I thought others had seen this already, but when I brought it up in another thread people seemed surprised so I'll put it here. I'm working on uploading them someplace else so of they get removed they are still archived.
Long story short, as you can see, this is the wreckage of what was once the great Manchester High School Lego Version. As we know, Lego MHS has been remade, so our tax dollars are helping Chris restart the Charb (Chris and barb) Hoard.
There are roughly 31 pictures overall for this. It should be noted that in a few pictures you can clearly see roughly 10 neatly folded MLP Lego set boxes. I believe someone mentioned that each of those boxes was roughly $40-50. And he has 10.
EDIT: here's the saved version of this, incase Chris takes it down... It's an imgur album btw.
EDIT2: HERE is the link to the Flickr that shows Chris rebuilt MHS Lego Verison. I can make a backup of this too if need be, but it does contain more pictures than the burnt one.
You know, when I saw the video of Chris's house burning down, I thought to myself "hmm, maybe he will use this opportunity to start over and become somewhat of a decent person."
I wasn't sure if there was already a thread for these pics, nice to see there is now. I posted about some of these in the Lulzy Chandler Family photo thread since I consider Chris' headspace Lego friends to be part of his "family" in a sense. I really love how some of the flat stud pieces have melted together into a slightly gooey-looking mess. Like I said in the other thread, it reminds me heavily of the Toynbee tiles.
And really, it's not so much a "destruction" as it is a "reconstruction". Chris appears to have already rebuilt the high school if some of his other images are any hint.
How the hell was ANY of that high school salvageable?? Even the slightest warping of a Lego piece will render it completely unusable, and from those pictures I can't imagine any piece of the building coming out less than slightly warped.

Well, that's the burned house...and Chris appears to be wearing stripes (gray and black) though it looks like a woman's pullover, which would totally unsurprising if it was.
In the charred room shots, isn't that a very expensive Lego movie palace model next to the school? Like one of high end sets only the really rich kid on your street had? Chris really did replace video games with Legos in the years leading up to the fire.
There he was, buying hundreds of dollars worth of the same kit to make his massive high school. Squandering what little chance there was that he would ever be able to turn his life around. And the world took pity on him one last time. It destroyed the Lego behemoth that he spent everything he had on. It gave him a chance to see the error of his ways by reducing his inanimate waste of money to something that looks like the allies had at it in 1944. The world allowed him and his mother to escape the inferno and said unto them 'this is your new beginning'
And Chris took the next money he got his hands on and built it all over again.
Yeah, I didn't understand what Chris wanted when he posted he wanted more LEGO MULTIPLES to rebuild his MHS sculpture when he claims he rebuilt it after the fire in Feb 2014. Sooo he wants to rebuild the rebuild? And I thought he claimed it only took him TWO or maybe three sets to create the first one. He has 10 sets...so wtf?

As I was uploading these I couldn't help but notice.... a few people have mentioned that when LEGO melt, they release a toxic gas and chemical onto the Lego themselves. As you can clearly see, Chris is handling burnt Lego and he has some black dye/tar/dirt/soot combo all over his hands.

That probably explain why the Sonichu figures look all dirty, from Chris playing with the burnt Lego then playing with Sonichu and friend without cleaning his hands off. Also the first two picture look like they came from inside the hoard itself.
