GnG on Legos

BG: LG, what is your favorite Lego product?
LG: hmmm, Bionicle and regular...I like both.
BG: But don't you like the Bionicle better?
LG: Well, I've got the game. I have all kinds of them. But some of them I don't really have. Like, 5 more Baraki I don't have.
BG: what is your latest Bionicle that you have?
LG: Baraki, Carapar....
BG: Cool...

Wow Guy. You know a lot about Legos. How many Baraki are there anyway?

We are definitely going to need to hear some more details. I love this idea. I am looking forward to hearing what LG has to say on a lot of issues. - Amanda

Guy (LG), this is Nate. Have you seen any pictures of those gigantic things people have made out of Legos? Like model churches and even cars? If not, let me know. I'll send you some.

Little Guy, I am very impressed with your Lego knowledge. My favorite part of the bionicle is its giant nose picker. I can't wait to hear more from you!

By the way LG, here is a picture of a harpsichord made entirely of legos (except for the strings):

Maybe you could do a guitar.

Hi LG.
Annie got her first set of Legos for her birthday in August. They were girly colors and only a few. Not enough to build anything too cool. She got a set of "regular" Legos for Christmas and she and her dad have built some pretty simple things like a pool and tower. She's just learning. She doesn't have any Bionicles but I bet she'd like them because, like you, she likes Star Wars and Legos. She also likes Indiana Jones but she's not allowed to watch it without her parents because sometimes she has to cover her eyes...you know on the gross parts. Do you have any magnetix? Annie got some for Christmas and she really likes them. Clarissa is more into things like reading and crocheting. She's reading the little house series with me at bedtimes and when we have free time. You might like the LH Book called Farmer boy. I don't know. We started a blog last week. You can check out some pictures there if you want and if your mom and dad say it's okay.

Thanks everyone for your comments. Here are some answers to your questions. Nate, there are only 6 Baraki. I've actually seen the giant things at the Lego store in Chicago. I saw a spider and a dinosaur I think. Cousin Erica, it was either Krekka or Nidhiki that had the giant nose picker. Wow that piano is so cool! You can even play it! Cousin Lydia, did you know I've read Farmer Boy? Mommy read it to me. And I've read some of the Little House books. Now I am on These Happy Golden Years, because then Laura Ingalls Wilder and Almanzo Wilder get married. Do you know about Magnamen that have those little tiny hands that you can fit things into? And those light up eyes? Those are Magnetix.

LG,
I had never heard of Magnamen. Annie does have some of the light up Magnetix parts.

Clarissa and I just finished The First Four Years of the Little House series. We're a little sad that we've finished the series because we liked it so much. We did find a biography on Laura Ingalls Wilder that we're going to read next. We also found a cookbook and songbook at the library. It has recipes food they ate and songs that were in the books.
