My son has been building the God phoenix out of duplo and they look quite good for a 4 year olds design. When I work out how to post photos I will put one up. I got inspired and thought I might make one out of lego. We started off by modifying a small fighter jet but now I am keen to make a big one. Has anyone had any success with one? I found a fantastic model on this page. http://my.tbaytel.net/macbeth/legophoenix.html

That link isn't working for me! I tried to build a Lego God Phoenix a couple of years ago and failed miserably. My son built a few Gatchaspartans when he was about your son's age. They were all very colorful, but fun. There's a Batman Lego kit for the Penguin's vehicle that bears a strong resemblance to the Condor Attacker from Gatchaman II. And somewhere I found a picture of a Swan Jun done in Lego... it was really good! I know I posted it around here somewhere.... ETA: Ah, here it is!

The link isn't working for me, either, Palynerd, but I'm looking forward to see your pics! TJ ... that Lego Swan Jun is impressive! Thanks for sharing!

http://my.tbaytel.net/macbeth/legophoenix.html I think I got the link to work... Very cool looking! Lego was my favourite toy as a kid, and even to this day, I still like it. I agree, TJ, that's a really well done lego Swan! I look forward to seeing your son's God Phoenix, Palynerd!

thanks for fixing that LB, the other link seemed to be attaching an extra HTTP. I like looking at that Lego Phoenix, Palynerd and would love to see what you come up with. Hopefully you can find a way to post pictures. I love the Lego Swan TJ. I don't remember seeing that before. I guess it was before my time.

Thanks for fixing the link, LB! That Lego God Phoenix is awesome! I wish he'd post instructions... I'd love to have one of my own!
