Hobbit Hole



This clubhouse is made of AWESOME. The kids have been asking for a playhouse anyway. Three guesses what I'm building next summer. You think I'm joking but I'm not. When the kids get tired of it I can use it for mushrooms. Or rabbits. Or maybe I'll just install a storm shelter and then build a hobbit hole over it. Yeah, that's it. Either way, I know I can find an excuse to build it before next summer. 

Help me find a reason to build this. 
Give me a reason my husband will buy.
PLEASE.

LEGO Fail

LEGO club
Jan-Feb 2013 issue
Dear LEGO,

When you market a series to geeks, especially one as dear to us as Lord of the Rings, then you'd better get it right. You should not, for instance, mislabel the names of Thorin Oakenshield's company. It will be noticed and acclaimed a FAIL. If you need a geek to copy-edit your geek series, I know a 12 year old and his mother who will work for Legos. Just sayin.

Can you find the mislabeled dwarves?
There are five. Sound off!

I'm like Yoda.
