After yesterday’s synchronized showing of minifigs (I’m counting D-0 as a minifig yes) across all three themes, things are looking up. Gotta admit, Ron’s pissy face might just be THE model to beat across all three themes. Hmmm, there’s an idea: we pick the best and worst of the month for all three themes.

Star Wars (Ace)
This is supposed to be the Falcon. It’s an ugly Falcon. As much as I like that ship, this is quite possibly the worst rendition ever. The dark tan? The cockpit protrusion could have benefited from a cheese slope. The main engine is pretty horrible. The radar dish is clever though but that’s about it. Yech.
[…] various mini builds. The worst build is easy… that’s got to be the Fire Truck thing on Day 11. I didn’t like the plane, but the firetruck was just downright […]
