Wow thats a lot of LEGO and only in five days. Maybe you can get him a large tub of LEGO and let him build it would keep him busy.

<br/>Get him the Taj Mahal. I bet he'll have a blast. The world record for building that thing is 3 days. See if he could beat that time.

Look online at some of the artists LEGO creations...show him and this might inspire him to do something unique and all his own.  I have seen full size desks made out of LEGO, or the life size Han Solo frozen in carbonite.  You can also look at the Legoland websites and see some of the large and custom things they have made.  He works fast from directions, so sounds like you have to give him more to think about...like designing it himself!
