Angry Birds - K'Nex

So we got our very first Angry Birds - K'Nex set, which sadly I have to say we're disappointed.

First of all, the bird isn't heavy enough to inflict any damage. The pig is extremely small and the K'Nex "bricks" feel terribly cheap! HUGE letdown...

Lego Star Wars Death Star Part 3 continue

Wow! Here it is, half of our Lego Star Wars Death Star is complete. At the end there will be 3803 Lego bricks in there, insane!!!!

Oh! That's where Luke and Leia jumps.

Cool canon!

Look, some computers. This will probably become the prison cell room.

A working storage type of room.

Lego Star Wars Death Star Part 3

We continue our Lego Star Wars Death Star!

Now we are about to start box #2 (Isaac is very proud). Lots more brick in there, can't wait to see how it will looks like after.

Lego Star Wars + Lego series 11 minifigs

While looking at what to get in our local Toys R US, Isaac found this on the liquidation table! It usually goes for $65 but was now $15. We had to get it even though it wasn't complete.

This is one set I really wanted especially since we recently got the Lego Hoth base. Finally it is missing everything from the bag #2, which means no StormTroopers (but we already own like 6) and the left wing of the Snowspeeder. What I'll do is order the missing pieces from the online Lego site and complete the site.

Great find Isaac!!

There are many new Lego Star Wars sets coming out last this summer. The one we want the most is the Jabba Sail Barge! This will go great with our Jabba temple and Rancor playset.

Also Amazon.fr leaked some infos about the upcoming Lego series 11 minifigs:

"With 16 new figures in Series 11 Special, the LEGO collection continues to grow. Each figure is packed in a bag 'mystery' and accompanied by special accessories, a base and ask for a booklet. Inspired by movies, sports, history or everyday life, this collection includes: a scientist, a female robot, evil, a jazz man, an elf, a policeman, a Bavarian woman, a waitress, a scarecrow, a barbarian, a welder, a mountaineer, a grandmother, a warrior tiki man and gingerbread."

Carrera Go Mario Kart

Isaac wanted to play with his Carrera Go Mario Kart race set. I got this for him on his third birthday. Its a cool set but somewhat fragile. Still we would love to own other Nintendo characters carts and maybe some road extensions.

Boys having fun...

We did lots of cool stuff recently!

We went up north with friends for some tubing on the snow! This was crazy fun and it was actually Isaac's very first time on such heights.

We also went to Centre de la Nature. This is a huge park in the city. It has lots of activities including a farm. Its there that we saw this cool Jack puppet.

Isaac is following my steps at djying. He is starting to be good at it. Here he is making music with the F1.

For those interested in what I am doing musically, you can check out my page on Soundcloud, which is totally free. You can listen to my music through streaming or download. Give it a try, it won't hurt!

In a galaxy far, far away.

The rebels have taken refuge in the mountains of Tatooine. After their last defeat they are trying to get things back in order and be much prepare for the next time.

As for Jabba, it is always an ambience of celebration at his palace.

Unfortunately, I didn't take any photos the war and mayhem that follow... that way Disney and J.J. Abrams won't be able to steal our ideas for their upcoming Episode VII.

A long time ago...

It is no secret that Isaac and I are huge fans of Star Wars. So every time we play with our Star Wars action figures and vehicles they are all over the place.

I'd say that so far we pretty much always continue the story we came up with over three years ago! Now the Emperor is back at the reign of the Empire.

Meanwhile Admiral Thrawn has his own team of bad guys. Out of hatred for Darth Vader, Prince Xizor has joined him. Thrawn has also hired numerous mercenaries and head hunters. His plan is to be leader of the Empire again.

Lego! Lego! Lego!

A co-worker gave me a GIGANTIC bag full of Lego! The bag is so big that I couldn't bring it back one in one trip. Isaac and I have quickly started to go through it and here's some of the stuff we found!

Star Wars Bespin Twin-Pod Cloud car! Amazing! We didn't owned this one and we found Lobo.

A Dewback, some Lego Arctic, Pirates and others.

The original Lego Landspeeder. The other pieces must be somewhere in the bag.

Our first snow speeder! Missing some pieces, which are probably in the bag.

More Lego minifigures.

The Star Wars cantina!! YES!!!!! Missing a few pieces... I'm sure I know where I'll find them.

Nice mini scale version here. So all this we found while going very quickly through the bag. We'll discover more cool stuff next time I guess.

Lego Star Wars Death Star Part 2

So we are back at our Lego Star Wars Death Star!

We are in no rush to complete this set... its HUGE. Sadly I had forgotten to take a photo of the bags before building them. So here you have Lego bricks from the first boxe (bags numbered #2 and 3).

Here's the reactor that Ben has to desactivate.

The dumpster is slowly taking shape.

Love the look of that cannon.

So slowly things are starting to look pretty cool!
