Lego Ben 10 Alien Force 8518 Jet Ray and 8517 Humungousaur

Finally get to post again! Shall do a light one on the second pair of Ben 10 Alien Force toys that was built  for playing purposes.

Introducing Jet Ray and Humungousaur!!

Remembered the rear this time

Front cover of the big brown baddie!

Rear box art

As usual, parts are mostly the same with one unique part to give it the correct look.

The all-red Jet Ray gets the glider-like wings!

Humungousaur gets rock-like fist and feet

And of course, to end of, we welcome the models to take center stage

"Don't I look like Hulk Hogan! Don't I?"

"Gotta show off the wings!"

"Who's the bad boy around here?"

"Let's rock 'n roll! Jive to the music!

That's all folks!!!

Lego Ben 10 Alien Force 8519 Big Chill and 8409 Spider Monkey

Grabbed the 6 Ben 10 sets during the TRU sale at United Square a while back and intermittently build a pair of them for the boys. They had agreed to choose three each and claimed the chosen ones as their own.

The sets come with pretty standard parts joint together by those ball and socket joints so that the figurines are pretty flexible. In fact, they are so easy to build you can literally combine any part from any alien with another.

So here's to the first pair built - Big Chill and Spider Monkey

Forgot about the back of the box...notice the similar hands, joints etc used. Just color changes and the unique parts for each alien differentiate them.

Two sets of wings for the cool dude

Extra limbs...for grabbing more bananas

Some poses after spending just less than 10 minutes on the 2 sets.

"Four legs good...four arms (not the red brute) better!"

"Common common, come nearer if you dare!"

"Whatcha' looking at, it's not cool to stare"

"Hissssssssss"


Hmm, kinda like a filler post....oh well!

Lego Sales @ United Square

Just went to United Square to have breakfast with the family. Shopped around for a while before joining in the TRU sale downstairs. When we arrived at 11 plus,the crowd was crazy, with long queues to go in and to pay. By the time we went down at about 1 plus, there was no longer any queue.

Not many sets left so grabbed some small sets and the Ben 10 ones for the kids. Managed to get the last piece of Emperor Palpatine's Shuttle (hidden at one corner!). Most of the stuff I got were around 40 to 50% off retail. Ah well, some discount is better than none especially when it's better than Metro's 20%.

Got a huge backlog of Lego to fix now!
