Classic Blue Spaceman

Post by Tesla Coyle » Sun Jul 27, 2008 10:47 pm

So, a couple of weeks ago I'm having dinner at the girlfriends house with her parents and their friends when I mention something about yard sales. This lady says, "OMG! I love yard sales. I go to like 100000000000000 every weekend." I tell her that I go to a few looking for LEGO. She tells me that she'll let my Woman know if she comes across anything so I can go pick it up.

Weeks later in the present I have totally forgot about this exchange and have pressed forward. I go to my Woman's today and there is a 5 x 4 x 8 in tupperware full of LEGO with a note attached stating, "For Ric; From The Lego Fairy."

I immediately dive in and am amazed. It was if someone had said, "Man, I hate all these green, brown, tan and gray pieces. I'm gonna sell them. Fuck these cool angle and joint pieces too!"

In the box was a classic blue spaceman. I'm mad excited.

Albert challenges you to a duel! (sorry for the demotivational, it's the only pic I have of the little bugger)

Why is Albert naked?
Often, literally, a pillow fight but may include similar situations like volleyball, particularly when wardrobe is skimpy and the action is bouncy.

He's showing off. He can survive hard vacuum without any clothes on.

Nah, it's part of his head.
I think those stats only apply to non-Mexicans.

Albert was an early meme on the /toy/ board of 4chan that I inadvertently created by posting a picture of him in response to the infamous "ORANGE TRANSPARENT CHAINSAW" picture. And yes, He is naked, other than the backpack and helmet, just that manly.

Yup, that and the Church Of The Orange Transcendent Chainsaw. Twas rather epic at the time. But yes, Albert was ALL me.
