I had a vision, and the vision didn't take that long to edit up into working order, considerably more stylin' than just the uniform itself.

Some highlights from this year's Día de los Muertos build, that I liked so much I'm just keeping it around forever now. It makes me feel at home.

It is ONCE AGAIN time for the reduced price on this old thing (that keeps getting older!) 50% off for the whole of October. marketplace.secondlife.com/p/2D-Face-Fo... View of it here, if you dare, etc., I probably should have made a new ad for it but I didn't.

Mite as well post this, the Pizza Tower titlecard I did last year around the release of the game, still very pleased with it.

6442: Sting Ray Explorer gives us a glimpse into the undersea world of 1997, where submarines were yellow, certain minifigure heads were really uncanny and fish were stickers on big ugly rock pieces. The leopard eel and crab stickers are my favorites.

An unruly wind has swept the hat of that cadaverous cad, the Dapper Swindler, onto a bough above a mountain ravine, forcing the duplicitous dead man to make use of an unusual tool - which he really did have up his sleeve.

This little guy here, 1762: Go-Kart from 1995, is what I like to refer to as Barely a LEGO Set. With a scant sixteen pieces, not counting the minifigure, this 2x6 plate with wheels is a joyful example of, "just toss some parts in a box and sell it."

A little summer fun with 6595: Surf Shack from 1993, with three different sails for windsurfing, a bar with palm frond awnings and a man with very short shorts.

Sal @sidesalad.bsky.social · 15/06/2025

Here's an odd one, 4579: Freeze & Chill from 2001's LEGO Racers, the only playset in the entire theme. This brand new box has been through 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨, with the hole in the back and the scuff on the front, probably from a torn-off sticker. I'm gonna see what's inside.

I was prompted to join a discord server and a divine spirit came to me and guided my hands to google image search for "grim reaper with gun."

A poorly done style pastiche of @dasharez0ne, complaining about people hosting downloads and project information on discord servers instead of publicly visible websites.

Even more bones, how many can there be? Too many. More than will ever be necessary, really.

Twenty done, time for four more. A lot of these outfits use the same pair of shoes, have you noticed that?

Round four of the skelemen, I'm nearing the end of the outfits worth taking pictures of.

Going through and taking all these pictures is giving me a good opportunity to revamp some outfits. Or just delete them. Anyway here's another four.

Sal @sidesalad.bsky.social · 04/04/2025

Have a few more good bone fits, though the jacket in the first one isn't my favorite, it's the only one I've found to complete the look so... completely.

I'm taking nice pictures of my boneman outfits, and also realizing how bad some of my boneman outfits are. Here's some of the good ones!

Did you know I was a blogmin? It's true! It's all about dumb toys! Here's the latest one on set 21109: Exo Suit, it has many pictures in-between the words. beendrinkingplentyofwaterlately.blogspot.com/2025/02/thou...

6575: Polar Base features some fine grey buildings on some fine white baseplates, with med bay, observation tower, weather monitoring and X-ray machine all in one or two or four places. Also featuring a very nice chopper and the last tracked vehicle and polar bear in the theme.

Sal @sidesalad.bsky.social · 31/12/2024

6579: Ice Surfer features this really cool printed sail, and bucks convention by putting the flag on a remote monitoring station rather than the vehicle itself. This is the one I had as a wee man, and even now I'm disappointed by the lack of snowshoes, but c'est la vie.

Set 6573: Arctic Expedition makes use of 𝘵𝘸𝘰 of the classic plow piece for its big tracked vehicle, and has a remote vehicle with articulated arm for safely retrieving more icy asteroids to take back to the lab.

Sal @sidesalad.bsky.social · 30/12/2024

Easily the most 𝘯𝘪𝘤𝘦 of the Arctic theme, set 6586: Polar Scout has this cute little ski-footed trailer, another polar bear, and the most exquisite bounty within the asteroid: a transparent neon orange scorpion.

Sal @sidesalad.bsky.social · 29/12/2024

Here's set 6520: Mobile Outpost from 2000's Arctic theme, with a nicely featured research base, headgear and packs for both figures, a dang ol' polar bear, and some really fine sticker work and printing. Even has one of those working winches I could never string up properly!

I love this big silly piece of vacuum-formed plastic.

Finally picked this up after thinkin' about it too long, 6589: Radical Racer from 1998, new in the shrinky wrap with the 𝗙𝗥𝗘𝗘 Rocky Ridge Playscape! Mind you, 6589 was never sold 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘵 the Rocky Ridge Playscape, so it's less 𝘧𝘳𝘦𝘦 and more 𝘳𝘦𝘲𝘶𝘪𝘳𝘦𝘥, since the set box doesn't even have the barcode.

Picked up 2152: Robo Raptor of 1997's RoboForce range, couldn't resist having such an odd duck. With its shuffly feet and useless arms, it lives up to most of its dinosaur theming, a real theming pile of bricks with some really stand-out prints, the eyes and the pilot's ROBO outfit, in particular.

Look now upon my silly robot and related silly flying craft, or if you want to be technical, 6889: Recon Robot and 1714: Surveillance Scout. Spyrius really rides that line between stupid and cool.

I've been revamping one of my older mans, this dang donkey boy (cursed by a fairy, Shakespearean business, y'know?) who thanks to this waistcoat can finally be a real cowboy. Donkey cow. Boy. Cow. He's got a gun, is the point.

I hate needing help with an item or a purchase, makes me feel like the biggest idiot alive, writing my little "oh please help me, creator man, help me be less dumb" notecard and sending it off and waiting around for a response and worrying if it even sent or if I somehow sent a blank one and-
