However, if it were part of the team, it would have been the second largest team at the time with at least 70 people. The Union Space Corps was the largest team at the time, counting private beta testing members, with at least 300 members.
The Union Task Force technically wasn't a part of LBP Union's team. It was composed of participants of the r/place event on Reddit who represented the LittleBigPlanet community.
