I still think that their Dragons line was the best thing Mega Bloks ever produced and even that had horrible flaws.

I bought and installed a new graphics card today.

https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-GeForce-GAM ... B01M5BQRIO

Although I went to Best Buy and Buyed it there so I could have it installded before my existing card dieded.
Yesterday both my screens went black and blue screen said display adapter on it.
Those thing disappear too fast, couldnt read any more.
After an auto restart things worked ok, but I figured it was time.
I've had this machine since 2009, over 7 years.

I'm thinking about cloning my harddrive but never done it before.

I do get one beep on startup which is : Bios Rom checksum failure, possible motherboard failure.
But thats been going on for 1 year. Just not sure how much to spend on this machine, it will eventually be my back up, but only if it works.

I was out looking for an HDMI to DVI cable today, I did find one but it was only 6 feet, I need a longer one.

Walmart has like 6 cables in the store, so if you want VGA you are all set.

I grabbed a Batman collector pack

I call him ShitGoat Batman.

I guess its Catman, who I never heard of.

Lego actually spends money on a glossy sheet in the bag with a picture of all the figs in the set, but they don't print the names.

That looks like Darkclaw, but without the edgy colours.

Challenge Accepted!

The beige plate is in there due to limited briks.
I wanted to make it black with white socks feet, but not enough of the correct black pieces.

Outstanding work. Looks like a shockingly accurate miniature of my own cat:

To make it even more accurate, if I had a pink 1x brik I would have placed it here.
This image is photoshop.

I changed the tail and added another lever and a steering wheel, for more mechanical cult control.
