Looks like one of those things that a janitor would use to pull a bucket and tools around with.

Regretting my Lego Star Wars Advent Calendar purchase already. Never been a fan of Star Wars, to be honest, and I haven’t a feckin’ clue what this first model’s meant to be! Linkage

It's a Gungan sub - I think :S Your pic took a couple of viewings to work it out though.  |edit| I've just googled the calendar and there's some nice little models in there

I never had any LEGO as a kid, so worryingly, this is now, officially, my first ever Minifig. Kill me!!! Day Two -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

You had a sad and sheltered life. How can you never have had LEGO? LEGO is the be all and end all for creative sorts (until computers came along that we could actually make games with). Keep us updated - they can't get any worse than JarJar

I had Meccano as a kid, instead. Loads of lovely metal pieces, scattered all over my bedroom! Handy stuff for fixing all kinds of childhood DIY issues!

I also had quite a bit of meccano handed down to me that came from somewhere between the 1940s and 1960s, it was all sort of mixed from different kit and there were a couple of very battered old boxes so I don't think it was worth much at the time. If there were any complete kits in there, my Dad would probably have kept it locked away and it would have appeared on Dickinson's Real Deal by now.

I had Meccano and Lego. Meccano was ace, but not nearly as versatile as Lego. Love them both

Day three Some sort of shielded weaponry, which wouldn't look entirely out of place in Halo, except all it does it shoot a blue transparent LEGO brick, so probably wouldn't be all too effective. I see no reasonable reason for it to exist in the Star Wars universe, except that it would leave a mess for JarJar to clean up with his new Dyson. Sorted!! -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

It's from Episode 1. It's a based on a Gungan shield and bomb (booma) launcher/catapult.

FFS, imagine the mess, and poor JarJar doesn't even have his Dyson!

Would you trust JarJar with a Dyson? :S

Day Four Even I, with my extreme lack of Star Wars knowledge, can tell what this one is. It's Spaceball One! -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

Today's thing is apparently a Droid Transporter. I had to look this one up, because otherwise my filthy mind would've just assumed its a pile of crap! Day Five -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

Have you got his legs on backwards? The LEGO logo is generally not visible from the front.

Nope, he definitely has a Lego Logo where his nob should be! .. Unless his feet are meant to be behind him..? -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

On Day Seven, JarJar got a new two-cylinder Dyson! He's now happily vacuuming away all the spare pieces that seem to be left over from all the models.
