This morning I was woken up at 5:30am by a 4 year old boy who just "really really really wanted to play lego"

Given I was sleeping on the couch due to a sick 2 year old girl stealing my side of the bed, it was either play lego... or get sat on and growled at until i got up anyway.

So by about 8:30am, we had MK1 of a "Mini Moke Car" built, and after some tweaks... this is what we ended up with.






Hope you all like it

Wow! That's impressive. You must have quite the collection of loose bricks to mock up such a sweet moke. Well done.

Lego will bring that little gem out next.

It looks spot on.

Cheers all,
It took quite a lot of trial and error to get it looking right, sitting right, and holding together properly!
I am/was pretty happy with it in the end, unfortunately however, its already been "parted out" so to speak to make way for the kids other "projects"


Yep we do, over the last year i've been sneaking in the odd order from http://www.bricklink.com/ when my son or I decide we need more of something....

next time its all spread out (probably 6am tomorrow) I'll take a photo of the pile!

Everything would NOT be awesome in my household If i started using Kragle.
I'd probably be banned from the Lego!

Ha ha!

I wonder if anyone else besides me cringes when they hear the Everything is Awesome song from Lego Movie?
