I got a filthy hippie, a dapper gentleman, Inigo Montoya, a bell diver, Empress Zerg, and a cyborg.
Nice l00t.
Finally someone else that thinks of it as a Zerg queen!
I was starting to think I was the only one with an indoctrinated brain.

I committed lego heresy and bought some angry birds clone lego. Now I'm wondering how to incorporate them into canon.

It has been a while, I remember sawing Mario Kart kits in a shop two years ago.

There's your answer. A vehicle-mounted bird launcher.

That's fucking lame, K'nex was all about rods and connectors.

Mom found a couple of discount series 3 and 5 minifigs, so she picked up a pair of both for me:
T'was worth it for the elf alone, although I'm digging the Silverdream minifig as well.

Got the series 7 Vampire Bat and Cowgirl. Too bad the latter's braid is attached to the hat. Well with the right torso she might make an awesome star sheriffs heroine.
If you're not into Metal you are not my friend!

I got a Chase Mcain Minifig when I reserved "Lego city undercover" At target.
I don't plan on buying the game though.
At least, not at launch. Wii U's are expensive.
It's china-made and feels like the collectible minis, which is a shame.

I Wish! Then I would have him suspended in some kind of Zordon tube, atop a giant walker or something.

Got this for the kids to play with at Thanksgiving...
...Glad I did, since apparently my youngest nephew "plays" with Lego by smashing cars into anything anyone else builds, and I'm SURE as hell not letting him touch my Brikwars army after that.
Also picked up some Halo Mega Bloks "Combat Units" for Brikwaring:

Yeah, the plastic is cheap as hell, which makes for a finger-blistering good time trying to pose the sharp-handed figures or work with the moronic rod-in-hole system...
...Plus the human weapons
fucking suck, being little more then sticks roughly shaped to resemble guns.
Still, there are SOME advantages:
