This also solved an issues of what to with this massive 13 foot tall wall in my house.

The first 300 customers received this custom printed torso. Even though the queue to enter stretched to almost behind the building when I got in line and I had to wait 1 1/2 hours after the opening to even enter, I was still able to acquire one of these torsos. To celebrate the opening, there was a giant inflatable(?) minifigure in the parking lot, a live string band outside, free coffee and build-a-minifigure, displays by MichLUG, and Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader cosplayers. So glad to have a B&M nearby (but my wallet won’t be happy about it)

My first ever LEGO set was this Roadster*. I add the asterisk because it was not actually this roadster. Mine was Mitchell Mouse, not Moe, and not Michael. I am trying to find the pieces to mine, because I remember the doors, and the body being red. The same color as the chassis.

My instructions are long gone, however in one of my boxes of instructions in my storage shed there are pieces of this booklet.

Does anyone else recall their set being named Mitchell? I cannot find anything to back ups this claim other than mine and my father’s memory of it.

[formula1.com] Formula 1 and The LEGO Group build partnership from 2025

Two of the world’s most recognised brands, Formula 1 and The LEGO Group, have announced an exciting new partnership that will see the launch of F1-inspired LEGO products for builders of all ages. The range will include LEGO DUPLO sets for pre-school children alongside brick sets for both children and adult builders.

The theme was essentially Lego City, but with mechs and a focus on their power source. I decided to take this prompt and put mechs in the most mundane and impractical City environment possible: office work.

Working mechs need their cup of coffee/motor oil to keep them energized

Being a mech doesn’t make pencil-pushing or working on spreadsheets any more exciting. The computer, of course, is powered by cute animal pictures.

This mechanized mop bucket is powered by… er.. the messes it cleans up.

Mech Corp.’s CEO gives the quarterly reports. His levitating bow tie is powered by money, and the design is meant to evoke Baron Harkonnen’s or Emperor Palpatine’s life support systems.

I realize I did push the definition of “mech” a bit throughout, but I wanted to go for the absurd.
