Lego and other Minifigures

[Paulie-W]

I bought some things called 'Crackling Balls'
Not cheap at £8 for 9 of them, but I will only use them when an idea pops into my head.

Worth it though, by the effect you get. I wounder if you could shoot one on black, and then cut out the sparks/explosion, and then use it as a layer.

Could do, but it's easier to google sparks png

Busy making my Christmas railway display for this year when my 7 year old grandson decided to add some of his lego figures ! I think it looks ok...

 

[Tori_T]

Buy him a Lego train set for Xmas, and get him to compete with you next year.

I was testing out my crackling balls. They only last a few seconds but what a show

I have a pair of cracking balls

You should see a doctor if they're cracking

 

[Tori_T]

I'm sure you do, but please don't post pictures of them being set on fire.

Which set is that little Halloween guy from?

It wasn't in a set. Went into my local Lego store and made it up.

 

[Tori_T]

Ooo, I didn't know you could do that. Last time I looked, there wasn't a Lego store anywhere near me.

I'm sure the Birmingham one wasn't there last time I looked. It looks to be new; there's no info for it apart from "Birmingham, GB".

LEGOLAND Discovery Centre, Arena, King Edwards Rd, Birmingham B1 2AA

 

[Tori_T]

That's a different place. The LDC is some sort of indoor Lego play experience, and it opened well over a year ago.
The Lego Store was announced in July this year, to open in the run-up to Christmas (though that could mean anything from August to November), which might explain why the official website has no addy/phone/hours/map yet.

My local Facebook group had an "autumn leaves" theme, so thought I would give it a go.

 

[Tori_T]

Shouldn't the pneumatic drill dude have the ear defenders?
Don't want him suing for industrial injury.

Was that an ordnance impact, or another Kylo dummy-spit?

I wonder how many barrels of gunpowder would be needed to blow up a Death Star?

 

[Skyline]

The poor trooper had some crackling balls

Curry last night?

 

[Tori_T]

The Catholic guy got the family nativity set out of storage on the way to work, and decided to show it off under the reception tree while it was here.

His response to my addition was to stop in his tracks and say "...Pizza?!?"
When I explained there were no catering facilities in the stable, so they'd have to order in, he just rolled his eyes, and carried on.
He didn't spot the other guy.

 

[Kingo46]

took me awhile to
spot the other guy.

 

[Tori_T]

He's the reason the shepherds had to watch their flocks by night.

 

[Skyline]

4 shekels for that pizza and that’s with extra crow too.
