I received an Abydos building set for Christmas. It’s from Stargate: SG-1, a favorite sci-fi show.
(Merkin ordered it from ThinkGeek.)
A sister suggested I take before and after photos, and I thought y’all might like to see them.
Here are some before shots:
Even the stargate is in ruins! How will SG-1 get home again?
And then, of course, there is a mighty battle:
So awesome. I’m enjoying my new toys. Merkin and BratzBasher find it rather hilarious.
Of course, I’ll have to make a couple of changes. For one thing, Daniel has grey hair. Not accurate. We’ll have to paint it. And add a gold tattoo to Teal’c's forehead. BB found a horn-shaped bit of plastic that we’re using as an artifact for Daniel (an archeologist) to play with, but I don’t have a close-up of that.
What did you get for Christmas?

“Everything is blurry because it’s all happening so fast.”
I’ll have to remember that line for my next photo blog!
I got books and sweaters for Christmas. And socks. Lots of socks. And Santa gave me a nail file. I think he wants me to break out of here.

Fantastic! And such a worthwhile gift, too, as it’s bring you joy while simultaneously exercising your phalangical dexterity!
I got the Love Comes Softly boxed set. It’s OK, be jealous.
