Master Chief lego
Speaking of mum, this was one of her gifts to me this year, a Lego Master Chief. In his hand, a tiny copy of Halo: The Cole Protocol.

Your mom is awesome! Where did she come up with a LEGO Halo figure?

What a wonderful stocking stuffer for all of your friends

Jim, I have no idea. She said ‘it took a while to find one.’ I’ve been unable to find out how she did it, because I can’t find any authorized reproductions for sale.
Mysterious are the ways of my mother, but I’ll be damned if she can’t ferret out anything she sets her mind too!

You have the coolest mom ever!

Does she know those Lego people who put on displays at MarCon? I got a kick out of their torturing Jar-Jar Binks.

You do have one cool mom! It’s a neat coincidence that I know where that master chief armor is from. http://www.Brickforge.com
