LEGOS ? ? ?

HI TIM !

        As an aside to this .You remember the " TOY STORY " movies , right ? Well , in the one they have the little green army men ,doing their thing . LEGO has those little green men ,their jeep and their armaments . Remember , LEGO , unlike "MEGA BLOKS" and others does NOT do conflict (modern war ) models or model kits . If it is part of the story line , it will be there though . Now , what I like about them , besides the trains is the aircraft they produce

        I have one of the early four engined jet airliners .Darned if it doesn't remind me of the last of the 707 series ! The fuselage is formed of the proper shaped smooth units too . the doors even open like a plane . Just thought I would add this .     Tanker-builder .   Oh , P.S. did you know they have the perfect hulls for the smaller transfer tankers that ply AMERICAN waters ?Just a pile of bricks , one of the hulls and viola ! you have one and it looks pretty decent too .

I keep meaning to get a buch of white bricks and build Snoopy in the camel :)

One of the video producers two offices down from me has the Dr.1 built on his desk. It is impressive.

interstingly, a few years agoy wife got me a LEGO Sopwith Camel and Fokker Dr.1.  Turns out, they are about 1/24 scale, as memory serves, and fairly well detailed.  

Wow, COOL stuff! I LOVED Legos when I was younger!

There are some MONDO-huge things in front of the Lego store in Disney---a huge fire-breathing dragon, shooting fire at a knight. It's got to be 12-15 feet long, and 10 feet high? It's breathtaking!

Those ships are superb!!!

I remember making a pretty accurate 1/72 Phantom back when I was in about grade 7 or 8.  Even had the correct angle on the wingtips and tail plane.

outstanding fun stuff,thanks
