    A slew of pricey stuff my wife hates me for.
    They used to have weighted keels, and would float really well. Haven't seen the same design since then.

    Can't recall, but I think the one I have in the tub of Legos was the pleasure yacht. Same hull as the police boat. Black with a red keel. White bricks for the top half of it.

    I think there were two fire boats, a short one and a longer one with multiple mid-segments.

    Got a bit more done on the AT-AT today. Finished up the legs and started on the base of the main body. The legs are surprisingly light. There is a ton of plate in the base of the body, so it already weighs a lot. I'll get going on the body this week. Sorry for the crappy phone pics.

    Thanks guys. :) If anyone else wants to do the build, I'm happy to share my parts list and the modifications I'm making to the original instructions. It's definitely been a great project so far!

    Thank you!

    When we got back into the Legos as a family these sets really captured my imagination. hte hard part is keeping my kids from swiping the minifigs!

    We went to the Lego Store this evening. :yay:

    Rewards for good grades for my daughter & son.

    She got the Lego Friends Heartlake Stable & he got the Hoth Echo Base.

    I got the new freebe to add to my sidewalk. :cool:

    I'm going to add a bank to my town next. It will be a MOC but I'll be pirating this set for parts to the theme:
