@tdhbr nice story to start the day =)
Was half way through building UCS R2-D2 and came upon Clone Wars Season 3 Ep. 8 titled 'Evil Plans'. It starred R2-D2 and C3-PO in one of the most hilarious SW scene ever. Terrific episode and example of CW at its best. Felt great to watch R2 and build him simultaneously (fantastic build experience also).
One of the the highlights was this cake and the little minifigs made for it. We have a friend who runs a cake decoration business and she helped with the heads and hands of the figs (which are edible) but my wife did the rest. And it tastes good too. in fact, It's amazing.
The bricks are rice crispy squares covered in coloured icing.
Had to share.
I am missing a few pieces that I absolutely know were saved for the project, so they'll be kicking around the mancave somewhere, but weren't critical to the main structure to stop me building.
I have all day tomorrow to complete it before i'm off to Mexico on my hols and would otherwise have to leave it unfinished for 2 weeks.
For anyone else bricklinking this for their own satisfaction, and not to sell, there are so many pieces I already had in altrnative colours that would not be seen externally. I probably could've done this £100 chaper doing it that way.
He loves spiders too, so might get him Shelob for his second birthday :)
Run out of paint though. Grrrrrrrrr.
Oh, and getting very very excited about flying over to Steam at the weekend :-)
This is my first model to go into a LUG Showcase, and my first to be put on display somewhere other than the internet or at work =D
On that note, I finally bit the bullet and found a decent deal on a Green Grocer. It arrived today at work and I have a very exciting evening planned.
Only consolation for being stuck in the office on a glorious late summer day in southern California was that I finished off my Batman minifig collection by getting the Wave 1 Poison Ivy, Catwoman, Bane, Riddler and Harley. Superheros Unite!
Its banzai not bonzai by the way .. I was wondering how a bonzai could have adventures.
Looks good (in an 80s retro kinda way), will watch it later :)
Impressed with @kevbags shoes.
I've decided next year I'm going to Steam come hell or High water
Ten minutes from leaving home to go back with the kids. Might bump into you @Kempo81.
