An Update On Lewa

Okay, here is the new Lewa in which I redesigned his armor. Actually, I think it's rather nice myself... it makes him look slimmer, which fits a Toa of Air (boo on you, Kongu Mahri) Although it is kinda too thing, and the blue friction pins don't help... but I went with what I had.
I was actually planning on following some members advice and returning it to Target... I need to go to Target again anyway. 
of course, it had to wait until after my classes were over for the week. But then, as I started to put that plan into action, I noticed something of importance... I don't have the receipt! I must've thrown it out with the bag last week, and I've taken out the trash already. (I have a new roommate who moved in, so the inflow of garbage in our room doubled, to say the least). So, I haven't had an extensive history with returns, but I'm pretty sure the receipt is a necessity. Darn.
So I went back to Plan B: Call Lego. I had a number, and it was still daylight hours, so i figured somebody would be on the other end, right? I talked to a salesman, and before I knew it, he was filling out a form. I had the most trouble getting my dorm address right. :annoyed2: He's a was a pretty nice guy, and we even discussed what I could do with broken pieces (yeah, he pointed me to the right link on the website that I could've probably found on my own, and mentioned that the problem with weak lime green plastic was solved... ha, I had Ehlek, Hahli, and Tanma break, that's from sets spanning about 1.5 years!) Nonetheless, it was really helpful. Now, I don't know if I'll receive the part anytime soon (he said 2-3 weeks) or if I'll receive it at all, but so far things are flowing smoothly.
And, until that piece arrives, Lewa is doing just fine with his slimmer armor. Which is grand, as he's not really doing anything but posing on my shelf in my room. I know I said that I wouldn't bring many LEGO Bricks with me, and I still don't have a great percentage of my sets here... but my side of the room is crawling with these plastic figures! They might creep out a person with a weaker heart... 
Or not.
