OK...I have to take a moment to be a uber-proud dad here and show off something my little girl put together. Yes, I said little girl.
A little history: I am the dad of two little girls who actually enjoy Star Wars. They were introduced to the SW universe through the Droids cartoon. Their favorite story arc is that of Mungo Baobab, C-3P0 and R2-D2, hence my reason for choosing the name MUNGO BAOBAB. You guessed it, I chose it simply because my little ones loved watching that story.
Today, my six year old daughter asked if she could build a Star Wars figure. So, this afternoon I sat down with her and she picked out each and every part. I promise I didn't persuade her in any way. Come to think of it, every time I made a suggestion, she totally brushed it off and did her own thing. To be honest, I have had these pieces in my box for a while trying to think of something to do with them. Today she came up with a pretty good selection of parts (right down to the Yoda lightsaber) for her custom in about 20 minutes.
I assembled the pieces and now the only thing I have left is to paint a few details she asked for. However, I just couldn't wait to share it with everyone. I will post the final product pics as well, but now I will shut up and show off her creation.
As her dad, I know I am biased, but I think she did a great job...for a 6 year old.
