Podcast: Diets, and Chips with Young and Elise

Hey everyone~! It's been quite awhile since I last posted with work and such being so time consuming, but over the summer a couple friends and I did a podcast just to see if it would be something we could do consistently for the blog. Comment below and let me know if this is something you'd like to hear more of!

Lego Nerd: Star Wars: Jedi Interceptor

This week, we'll look at the 223 piece Jedi Interceptor from the Star Wars prequels. I mostly bought this because it came with an Anakin and R2-D2 figure. The build was fun, but after building the Milano in the last Lego Nerd post, it was very brief. Nonetheless, Lego does a great job of making it look in the likeness of the actual Jedi Interceptor.

Getaway to Oakland!

It was a long awaited vacation with me being out of school for the summer and my work schedule syncing up with Charlene's. Put that together with a visit to my bro in law who was leaving to China for a month long work trip, and it turned out to be a much appreciated getaway!

We stopped by my cousin's in Valencia for lunch (and for this selfie).

Lego Nerd: The Milano Spaceship Rescue

Today I am featuring Starlord's spaceship, the Milano, from Guardians of the Galaxy Movie. The likeness to the movie is pretty incredible, and Lego really goes all out to make the pieces that fit to really drive home the point that... this is a beautiful ship. It even comes with some stickers. The and the build was an absolute blast. It took a few attempts as you can see it is almost 700 pieces, so I built it a bag at a time. but it comes with great figures (Starboard, Gamora, Drax, Ronan and a minion. A little pricier than the last set coming in at $62.99 on Amazon, but worth every brick. If you have the cash definitely nab this one!

A great set

Lego Nerd: Hulkbuster Smash

I hope that everyone has had a chance to watch Avengers: Age of Ultron by now. One of my favorite scenes was when the Iron Man takes on the Hulk in the Hulkbuster. So when I saw that there was a Lego set based off the epic battle, I just had to build it (thanks again to my cousin James for picking this up for me. The Hulkbuster when completed is so legit. And any Lego set that comes with a Hulk figure is automatically awesome. Also for the price point of $30, I would say that this is the best Lego set of the Age of Ultron line. Would definitely recommend this one as a pick up. Have fun!
