Skillet Cooking For Sale

Boo! Happy Halloween! Brick or treat? Both! My wife and I decided to treat ourselves with some bricks on our first Halloween in the United Kingdom. Our Halloween 2016 haul is more like 2015, for everything  we bought were stuff from last year  (and we're both not a fan of this year's spooky set. Is that a walrus vamp? ). Needless to say,  they're  on sale. For our first and only set, we purchased the Trick or Treat Halloween Set [40122]. Trick or Treat Halloween Set [40122] Trick or Treat Halloween Set We spotted this cute little vignette in our local Sainsbury's. It used to retail for  £8.49 but they were selling the set for only £7, then they marked it further down to £5.60! This is our first ever vignette and it has inspired us to make similar projects in the future. Good thing I chose this over some spooky sweets. For the next items, we used a voucher from WHSmith taking  £5 off from at least  £15 worth of  kids' books or toys. Fortu...

Black Monochrome Minifigure Continuing my  minimal art   project  in brick form, I have decided to go back to the basic black... After my first White Monochrome Minifigure , I chose to follow it up with another basic color, black. Like w hite pieces, black pieces are also very easy to procure. I acquired all the black minifigure parts from my local LEGO Shop's Build-a-Mini. Unfortunately, there were no plain black head and torso pieces available, so I just selected the ones with the least printing. With the same process as before, I removed the paint using cotton swabs and a rag cloth with Brasso metal polish. For its first interpretation, the Black Monochrome Minifigure is presented as a soldier. Why? The honest reason is that during the time of the shoot, the soldier hat is my only plain black piece. Besides, I think it looks super cute, like a shadow escapee from The Nutcracker . Black Monochrome Minifigure: Soldier Slowly, I'm collecting various extra pieces for my Pr...

LEGO Nexo Knights Magazine Issue 09 The LEGO Nexo Knights Magazine Issue 09 has just been released. And as promised, it's a profusion of free gifts, including a Bat Flyer and Ninjago trading cards! Just like the previous issue, Issue 09 is overloaded with giveaways, specifically the Bat Flyer LEGO toy, a Ninjago booster pack, and a limited edition Ninjago card. All that's lacking is a  Nexo Power, but that's okay. The  brilliant strategy of introducing the Ninjago Trading Card Game in the LEGO Magazines is still ongoing. Just like last month, another rare card was included. A  genius move, I believe, to tease the desire to complete the whole collection. It almost worked for me, almost, for now. Ninjago Trading Cards A Limited Edition Team Ninja golden foil card is i ncluded in every Issue 09 . And with the special card guaranteed in every booster pack, I got a Jay & Cole silver foil card. So, by purchasing the two issues of  LEGO Nexo Knights Magazine , I instant...
