Captain Kieth's Cannon

Captain Kieth's Cannon

Captain Kieth decided that enough was enough. He had been a captian of one of the largest ships in the English Fleet, and he can't take going to the grocery store or anywhere else in the little beat-up sedan, so he spent four and a half years in his basement using only the parts he could find in his house and the dumpster beside it. Now he can't leave the house without looking totally awesome.

Oh yeah, this was built for the LEGO Steampunk Group's 100 piece contest, and if I'm not mistaken, it's exactly 100 pieces:

It's just a bunch of ice cream. I think you can get it on Pick-a-Brick.
Often, literally, a pillow fight but may include similar situations like volleyball, particularly when wardrobe is skimpy and the action is bouncy.

They're really expensive. At minimum they're $.45 a pop in the U.S. I bought ten of them and it cost me 6 bucks somewhere.

That's impressive. Only 100 pieces!

Yeah, the smoke is awesome. Who knew ice-cream was made for anything but eating? :lol:

Whoa. Love the helmets in front. Are they giant anti-ship rocket warheads or something?

Ohhh... that should be a required piece for brikwars (also OTCs, fleebnorks, and red tiles)..... Rubble that was once a tank or person looks so much better when it is smoking.....
