It's been a long long while since I got something so truly baffling out of a Lego Calendar!!

I got me some wheels!!




And no, Jay, I haven't got the foggiest. Is it part of something larger?

Awww, lovely wheels!!
I'm "wheely" jealous!!!

I'm going to assume the Tweeters were right about it being a boat, and assume the little kid is playing with it.

I think you may have the front red bit on upside down. That might help it look a bit more like a boat. If you stand 10 feet away. And squint. Maybe.

I thought it was "Father Christmas standing far away and holding the radio control box for one of the aeroplanes" except he has a hell of an odd nose.

I dunno.. Could actually do with a few big-pieces, myself.. All these little fiddly bits are getting a wee bit unwieldy!

Day Twenty One


Today's little pile came with a gun. You can just about see it, the little light grey thing on the right.


What kind of happy-go-lucky, Xmassy, festive object would possibly require a gun!?

That's not a bomb disposal droid, it's R2-D2's brother!

In other very interesting news -

With these pieces (and the other pointless bits I've collected for the last three days) I can very nearly create a horse-less carriage. Or it might become a transformer. Or a pile of steaming, molten NON-LEGO plastic. Find out tomorrow when all will be revealed. Possibly.

Not only it is a clone of LEGO, it also doubles as a clone for MineCraft.

With only 1 day left to go in the advent calendar, finding the door wasn't too problematic.

Wow, that really is odd. I'm guessing that the red and green things could be presents, but the other thing? Not a scooby.

Could it be a sled of some sort?

Is it a baby Wall-e?

I had a look on Amazon for reviews of my advent calendar. Ho Ho Ho!

This is just one of the many that all say pretty much exactly the same -

I bought this for my 2 boys, aged 3 and 5, the were so excited and couldn't wait to open it each day! It's now the 8th of December and so far we have had tears basically everyday. We have had pieces missing, a person with only one leg, a persons face so smudged with black ink you can barely make out the features, and then today my boys had had enough, yesterday they opened up the door to find the top part of a snow mobile, couldn't build it as the basic bits that hold it together weren't part of that day, we thought today we could build it as we guessed that the missing pieces would all be part of today but no, only half the pieces are part of today, the rest it seems are part of tomorrow, 3 days to build one very tiny snow mobile and 2 boys very upset. Not worth the money to have my boys upset every morning.


It's fine for an old git like me (and it was less than a fiver) to rip the shit out of it - I knew it would be crap, but for little 'uns it really is a terrible shame. Thankfully my missus gave it to me, rather than our son (who was offered, but basically stated that at 16 he was too old for this shit)or some other poor innocent.

Christmas has never been so much fun!

Awww.. That does actually look quite nice, now it's all fitted together. .. Although, that first pic is a little gruesome!!!
