Legos at the Cascades!

Wizard on Water

I went for a hike with my friend to the Cascades today and brought some Lego minifigs along. I ended up just posing the Knights I brought with me and ended up with some great shots. I was also really lucky that I didn't lose anything as the rapids were roaring (this shot of Majisto for example had him balancing practically in the water at the top of a section of rapids. My friend placed the rock for him to stand on. I thought for sure I was going to lose him!)

As I was packing everything up, I decided I am definitely going to bring some pirates next time I come! I think they'll look great with these backgrounds as well. And if it's nice enough to go swimming, I can bring a ship, too....

First Pics with My Space Police Officer!

Flagged Down by the Spyrius Scout

Today I finally took some shots with my Lego Space Police Officer whom I've named Officer Geoff Dodge. The shots with the Spyruis Scout and the Dragon Masters would've been better with snow (both groups were robbed in the snow), but I think they still turned out well. I still have the Blessed Easter Peep, so it was fitting to get a pic with it, too. I'm sure there will be plenty of other shots with Officer Dodge in the future, esecially if Gary and Mr. Hardcore keep up their shenanigans!

Found: My Saucer Scout!

I was randomly looking at Lego guys on Ebay, when I remembered that years ago, I had one Lego Space set. I also remembered that the last time I saw the set, it was sitting in my closet (which is not where the rest of my Legos are) fully built. I wasn't sure if I'd eventually put him in with the rest of my Lego or not, so I took a quick look in my closet. Fortunately, I found him almost right away, buried beneath some other things. Other than being a bit dusty, everything is in good shape; more to the point, the set wasn't missing anything!

I did a bit of poking around, and I was able to discover that this set was the Saucer Scout from the Spyrius Space collection. I don't really remember why I ended up with this set; it's the only space set I have (I have mostly older Knight sets, the majority of which are Dragon Masters, and Paradise, because that's obviously what a girl who plays with Lego wants - insert eye roll here).

Needless to say, now that I've dusted him off, I'll probably try taking some pictures of him on wacky adventures - maybe he'll even meet the Snowtroopers!
