Tidbits From Seattle...

Some interesting things frm NW Brickcon this weekend that I encountered...

  • The bus ride to the Seattle Center area where the exibition was held and the University district (where I am) is roughly thirty to forty minutes... depends on if they raise the draw bridge. It helps if I'm zoned out to music.
  • The MOCs at the Bionicle table are completely awesome. Coincidentally, everybody I heard called 'em Mocks and not M-O-Cs. Hmm.
  • There was alot more going on on the Titanic model than the movie suggested. AKA, I never knew Spoungebob was on the boat, nor that he knew how to use a lightsabor.
  • The mini titanic was actual sunken by a Gahlok, but the cyclops defeated Hewkii Inika.
  • The skeleton army has allied itself with Pluto, and I don't mean the ex planet.
  • The people at the Space table had the best sense of humor, and decpitation was common. Gotta love mini figures.
  • I thought there was a conspiracy to do with squids, and I was RIGHT!
  • The guy washing windows need help from a firetruck when his platform turned upside down. However, I noticed that minifig was still standing even when upsidedown. :blink:
  • Far Side comics rule, especially in Lego.
  • I always had two to three numbers match up on my raffle ticket and with the winning number, but never all six. :P
  • Star Wars minifigures are expensive! I guess there are real collectors out there.
  • The Toa being sold at the Bionicle table were very randomized, and many tended to have Pakaris.
  • I have been keen on building my own miniature of a Washington state ferry boat, but I don't have any of the right pieces. And guess what... they just happened to be selling custom made sets of WA St Ferries! It's sooo cool and a great little model, and I'm going to give it to my grandparents for christmas, because they use the WA St. ferries alot.
  • I can spend four hours a day for two days browsing around and oberving all the LEGO Bricks there and still not get enough of it all!

I have pictures of some of the cirumstances mentioned above, and I'll post 'em eventually, but not tonight, 'cause I'm lazy and tired and have class tomorrow. But it was a blast, and I met a few BZP members (but not many. Hmm... :( ) And for all of you who missed out... :P Ha ha, I just happened to be in the right city at the right time. And now I've got myself an extra mini fig, spare Toa parts, and a mini ferry boat! YEAH!

Okay, it seems to have gone from fun Lego event to just plain random. Spongebob with a lightsaber? Decapitation? Far Side comics? Hm. Well, I can't wait for the pics.
