Shocking Discovery!

We saw something tonight that we have never seen before.  It was shocking!

This year the boys are opening their Star Wars Lego Advent Calendar every night.  It has been a lot of fun for them because we love Legos at our house.
We have tens of thousands of Legos - really, we are probably approaching a million in our home.  We are seasoned Lego veterans.  We have never seen the likes of this before.
What is so shocking?  A DEFORMED LEGO!!!
Lego probably has the tightest quality control in the entire toy industry - probably out of any industry.   They are legendary for producing and shipping quality products.  That is one of the reasons we enjoy Legos so much (that and they can entertain Enoch for at least an hour!).
When the boys opened their package tonight, they we excited to find a fighter pilot in there.  Even more excited to realize that the head was printed wrong and it had a divet in the neck section (so it wouldn't attach to the body).  How could that be?  They weren't mad, they were excited.  Gavin proclaimed it a collector's item and balked at Greg's idea of sending it back and getting a replacement.  Enoch suggested that maybe this pilot had his head blown off and that was the problem.



It's always fun to find something different!

Hilarious! We have the same advent calendar and our fighter pilot was just fine. Maybe our fighter pilot was the one that blew your fighter pilot's head off. Just thinking.

We (I mean Ty and Brian) are HUGE Lego fans. They would have loved to find a deformed fighter pilot.
