picked up some lego stuff.

things started to get a bit weird…

Miyuki was just as suprised.

Things all worked out at the end.

BrickCon has come and gone. and with it so did my money. Picked up a bunch of items form BrickArms including a couple of bats.

Here are some brickcon pictures in form of a slide show:

Had lots of fun and we will be going to BrickFest 09 so stay tune for some awesome post about that.

I’m also working on a few things such as my new Forestman hide out.

Decided to show off all the minifigs that we have been collecting since we started our project.

here is a close up on some of them.

Here is roommates large collection

sorry no closeups on those.

here are the newest members to the collections thou

Not so much left to do on the town. We have moved on to building a medievil setting. As you can see in these sets of photos. We are mainly going to focus on forestmen and Wolvesmen, there are some fantasy era minifigs in there as well.

We were finally able to find a gas station and police station at our local Lego store. This meant that we had to make some serious changes in the town, no more wolf brigade park, and now we really need another table for our town. 

Here is a picture of the awesome Pizzeria Ryan made:

 Next up is the Gas station itself, I was really impressed by this, carwash is awesome. too bad it currently has no exit.

We did go ahead and removed a bunch of minifigs from the town so theres alot less action going on but theres still a couple of favorites out there like these fellows:

 And ofcourse blacktron dude is always getting into trouble:

See ya guys next time.

So I decided I should finally get around to actually posting in this blog.

As you may or may not know, Cesar and I have decided to start making a lego town and will be coming up with a blog to document the misadventures we have in paying homage to our inner children. Eventually we’ll probably move over to a custom interface and ditch the whole movable type thing, but it all depends on how lazy I am on getting the code up and running.

So anyway… A bit about myself! I’m Cesar’s roommate and a fellow legophile. I’d probably have to say that I enjoy the Space themes the most. At least in terms of the sets. You can’t do too much with landscaping when it comes to space sets (Unless you use some other sort of Earth-like environment). I may try to explore this option at some point, though. The original Space Police set probably is one of my most favorites sets, and one that I’m actually trying to get a complete set of now.

Cesar and I have been working over the past month in increasing our lego collections. We’ve purchased a good portion of the "City" set, and a handful of other ones. Unfortunately none of the other current sets out are all that appealing, with the exception maybe of the new Castle/Fantasy set, but I’m not sure if I’m up for getting any of that set right now. 

Anyway, I’m rambling! I basically just wanted to introduce myself and then post some pictures of my current space police collection. So enjoy!

Here’s the first addition to my Space Police collection. This is the Message Decoder, driven by what could only be described as a porn star from the 70′s.

Today I received my second addition to my Space Police collection – the Galactic Peace Keeper. This, of course, is the "Before" picture.

And here’s the "After" picture. It was pretty fun to build.

There’s hidden wings under the "Police" logo that fold out to provide necessary guns whne fighting those evil Blacktron. 

Speaking of those Blacktron scoundrels, we caught one, and it’s time to load him up into the transport cell. 

Success! He does seem oddly happy for someone who was just caught, though. O.o

Here’s the current condition of my SP-Striker. This is one of the Electric Lights & Sounds sets. You can see one of the white pieces with lights. I’m still missing some parts for this set. They’ve all been ordered, but are in various parts of transit en-route to me. Hopefully I’ll be able to finish it soon! 

I’d actually like to mess around more with the Electric Light & Sound stuff. The pieces are a tad spendy, though, but maybe I’ll make a building that lights up someday, or something.

And here’s a few pictures of all of my Space Police I collection so far.

You’ll notice that I’ve given one of the Space Police officers a black cape and red light saber. I just liked the way it looked, so I figured it’d be pretty funny to do. There’s also a gray droid that I’m working on (Again, still collecting pieces). I’d like to replace the gray pieces with black/blue pieces eventually, so it fits in with the rest of the set.

Anyway! That’s enough posting for now. Hope to post again, soon!

Tusken Raiders have come to visit our little town.

Added more things to the town today, mainly another building and an addition to the park.

Here is the building we added.

 And heres another view of the building.

Went ahead and added a chair to the dentist office.  

View from the outside of the office:

We went ahead and fixed the current road plates and began adding some more tile plates to the sidewalk. Added several parks, and allot of different minifigs. including a wolf clan figs.

Here is a current shot of the city:

The current minifig pictured today:

We also went ahead and added some new buildings including this awesome pizza place.  

Pirates sure like Pizza:

and finally a raptor filled park:
