SO my kids recently got a few Batman Lego kits.I haven't paid them much attention, but they've been playing with them. This morning, as he was eating breakfast, DS was putting something together, and when I took a look at it, my jaw nearly dropped to the floor. It seems to be inspired by a certain Bird car... What do you all think?

Wow! The resemblance is amazing. So has your DS started calling it the Condor Attacker yet?

LOL... the front piece is done for the Batman kit. And he hadn't finished the car. He had another more complicated bit to add on the back. But it looks so much like the Condor Attacker!!!! Now I just have to convince him that it is JOE'S car, and not Batman's. (Or maybe it was the Penguin's?) So the moral of the story is, if you want to make your own Condor Attacker, run right out and get this Batman Lego kit! ROFL 2

I try to keep the Lego genres separate in this house. We have Star Wars, Mars Mission, Indiana Jones, Batman and a sprinkling of Castle, as well as a massive generic bucket. So DS was using the 'generic' bucket at the time. But I'm sure you could do a better job with Star Wars or Mars Mission pieces. Lots of cool plane/wing pieces there!

Could you modify one of the Lego Spaceman helmets?

That's what I thought of using and I have the X-acto knife for it.But I'm affraid of either a.cutting it the wrong way or b.getting cut in the process.Plus the lego space explorers are pretty darn hard to find.

So far,I'm getting the shape for the G-1 and need to get another Jedi Starfighter for parts for the G-3 that connects with it.I think I'll make the cockpit go inside itself to fit onto the G-1.

I think that's your best bet. Since we never see the Bridge from the exterior, and it's only Ken's cockpit that is visible from the front.

There was a big Speed Racer set that included a black car that looked a lot like the G2. Let me see if I can find it... The black car on the upper left. There are also a bunch of 'Lego Racers' kits that have car pieces that could work well.

I am *all over* Gatch Lego sets. If they make them I'll buy two of each one... one to keep and one to let the kids play with!!!!

TJ, I can see myself buying two of each too. Even though it's just me, I want to play with them so badly. As a kid, I made a makeshift Phoenix out of my legos. It wasn't very big, but it filled the role I needed. That is to have a "ship" I could fly around the air.
