Plane and Lego geeking

I liked the new airport sets.

However, this model of the 787 Dreamliner is also interesting.....

Note I said *interesting*. As opposed to "cool" or "I want one"........

Sadly, I still want to get the Imperial Star Destroyer set. Never mind that Le Wife would kill me for taking over the dining room table for the two weeks it would take me to build it.

It took me about two days to build it. But I will warn people that it is a PITA to build

Looks cool though

oh yes...

A LEGO exclusive, based on exact specifications from Boeing Commercial Airplanes for the ultimate in scale, details and authenticity!

If this IS an authentic scale model, I'll go out on a limb and predict that the actual plane is gonna have trouble with air turbulence & drag around those chunky curved parts...not to mention those wings!! ^0^

Just consider it proof that a brick can fly if you put large enough engines on it..... :-)

Ahh Legos.
I just got my fist chance to visit a lego store last week and wow. I came home with a little bucket of choose your own from the bulk bins, and came away coveting the Spongebob square pants lego kit. (half to horrify the 13 year old, half because I'm developing a small collection of sponge bob stuff in my kitchen)


But still its neat to see what they have out now. I'm sure I'll get more on the next trip.
