The LEGO "technological plateau"

So, the small one proudly announced her creation.

"It's a tank"

Influence of the big brother and his friends there I suspect...

The Tank

Things being as they are: she proposed "we could make a movie".
I don't think she's seen the pilot or knows the effort involved, though that goes down every year...


I've been remiss on the old posting front recently, but I'm now prompted to muse that there seems to be steps in the progression of using the LEGO.
For the older one, they are used with mini-figures as props in "the LEGO battles", and in many ways the shape and sophistication has not changed so much.
Other considerations have come into play:

• plainly, just making bigger and bigger armies is an end in itself
• is it rare?
• does it have any "exciting pieces"?
• how much does it cost?

Maybe more on the "exciting pieces" later - I'm sure there is a whole department in LEGO devoted to stickiness...

The upshot is, she's catching up quick...
