Very cool! I don't have the patience for legos as I barely put together the legos knight Rosemary gave me for Christmas last year!  ;)

Hey that has possibilities! You could make a more realistic looking Motte and Bailey! :)

Maybe she’s afraid you’d teach the youngster how to properly prepare Viet Cong spike traps!

Very impressive. I had legos growing up, but half of those blocks don't look familiar at all. I wonder how many kits he had to buy to do that? Even the bottom isn't road plates, it looks like he built even the grass from regular small plates. Wow!

Yeah, they've made a lot of new parts over the years. These days you can buy large single-color base plates, so I think that's probably one of those. (base plates have studs on top but are smooth underneath).

I do wonder how many sets he had to cannibalize to do that.

I loved my lincoln logs...never cared much for Legos though.  Not even the cool Lego Knights I've seen.  :)
