Here’s the latest offering from Fooyah. A lovely little plane from the Lego universe.
Lego 61 – Model 60177
Lego 60 – Model 70911
It’s a mini-Lego season soon and for reasons that shall remain hidden some of the Lego has already been made.
Looking rather ’20s here is Penguin’s Arctic Roller. Another view here:

Here’re two views of the latest addition to the Lego collection. This is a bulldozer?

There was a mini Lego season recently and this is the first beast from that. Ladies and Gentlemen I give you the RC Racer:
This beast uses a lovely little IR transmission system. It’s pretty well designed and have 4 channels just in case you are near other systems.
Possibly the only drawback is that the battery pack takes SIX AA batteries, but then that does give a decent about of power. It’s the same battery pack as the Excavator I built about a year ago.
In this picture (above) you can see the right (front) and left (rear) motors along with the battery pack and IR receiver.

Here’s the latest Lego addition to the family. This one was left over from a Lego Season in May!
The Lego Ninjago Movie
I went to Rochester Cineworld to see the latest Lego movie. I’ve seen a few of them before. I reviewed the Batman one in this communication. The tide was quite low and the mudflats were exposed. I wondered about dredging for a while and whether there is a natural deepwater channel in the centre of the Medway. I rated this film on IMDB and the discussion about the ratings system is in this communication although I may have to change the system.

I just didn’t really think this film was very good. It suffered with quite a bit of “too much in it” which I first noticed with the Transformers movie where the CGI is so fast and too much it’s hard to really see what’s happening on the screen. This problem could also be a side effect of me getting old, hence I loved Blade Runner because of its lingering shots.
The plot of this film was rudimentary and certainly wasn’t anything new. Largely it bored me. While I understand the Lego are on a massive expansion programme with loads of new sets being created and sales increasing I think that sometimes it’s OK for a company to say “You know what? We are doing OK. There’s no need for massive expansion, we can concentrate on doing what we do and do it well”.

Here’s a lovely twin boom sea plane. I think it looks gorgeous. It carried the jet-ski.
This is a new view for me, the head on!

Last one this week in the mini-Lego season. A surfing scenario! Just in time for the release of Baywatch, which I shall not be reviewing.

More of the Lego mini-season here.
This is a pretty neat Lego buggy racer.

Here we go with a Star Wars Lego kit. Just a mini one really and not worth building. It seems that the Lego people have been designing “scenes” rather than models that can create story. As an example here’s the Death Of Darth Maul Lego scene.
