The other night Roy, Davis, Harris and I wanted to play Sorry! (great board game, if you've never played it.) Alas, each team has to have four little pieces you move around the board, and we're missing quite a few. So we decided to use Lego men instead. We rummaged around in the lego bin (HUGE lego bin) getting tons of legs, hands, arms, heads, torsos, hair and whatnot, and as we did the idea grew and grew. We figured that we could each customize our own team of men
and build each team a base on the board around our respective "Home" spots.
Oh man, this was a blast. It's still cracking us up.
Meet the contestants...
(note: almost all of the battles pictured were actual conflicts which occurred during the course of play.)

The Lavendar Bunny Tribe (Roy)
(scary guys, you'll see)
Powgum the Senseless, Bruteful,
Chief Horse Head-Stomper, First Mate Frank

The battlefield.

Generals survey the field.

First casualty - Wrench takes out Conrad with a sorry card.
(stupid little punk.)

Robot executes a one-machine assault on the Gangsta base -
Mugsy goes down.....

.....and gets back up! riddled with bullets, darting and leaping, he shoots it out with Robot.

The Gangstas and their hostage. Stupid car's broke.
Wrench went to Autozone.

Chief Horse Head-stomper and his faithless steed.

Home sweet oh look, human heads stuck on spears.

Joe gives Boss a beating. (Can you say discus throw?)

Scare tactics of the Lavendar Bunnies.

Oh Boss, what were you thinking?
BUUURRRRN IN THE WALL OF FIRE!!!!!!!!

The Gangstas prep for battle.

I don't know, I guess he wanted to stand there.
(I told you they were scary.)

Robot gets his little blue bootie kicked back to Start.

The Chief is the first of his tribe to get to the Happy Hunting Ground. (He does a little dance.)

This inspires the rest of the team. One two three,
Stuff their Intestines with Buffalo Tongue!!!
(and stick their head on a spear.)

Wrench makes it to the getaway car.

Joe takes a pot shot at Butch. With his missile launcher.

Sure you can have her back. NOT!!!! (hahahahaha)

SWEET! back to the scary house.

Powgum the Senseless finds himself looking into the business end
of Joe's MX-38,901,282Y2jDecimablowyouto37Smithereens

give up, Powgum, give up before it's too late...

.......a moment of silence for Powgum the Bodiless......

In spite of the MX-38,901,282Y2jDecimablowyouto37Smithereens,
Roy's Lavendar Bunny tribe come away with a victory. They find time to share a buckskin of fire-water.

you all are so creative...i love it.
Wow, talk about fun.
That is what I call shweeeeeet.
i think it took longer to make the characters than to play the game:)
That is one of the funniest things i've seen :)
(Harris) the whole game took about two hours for all the camera shooting and scene setting!
ok...it's official...yall win the "coolest brothers ever playing the coolest game of sorry ever" award. I've been looking for someone to give this super high honor to, and I think this just SO over qualifies yall! I'm so impressed...who else would think of that?!
I have to admit that the team consisting of Joe, Joe, Joe, and Conrad made me chuckle...but the gangstas and all the rest were great too. I have to say my favorite was "Chief Horse Head-Stomper"...he just has a really fun name! ;) I can't get over yall's creativeness... go ahead!
that was three words. amazing.
i want to play that way always. i have no words, as you can tell from the missing two from above.
You guys are so creative! I won't look at Sorry the same way ever again. I'll always think of Lego Sorry, and how cool it would be if I could play that way.
Dan, don't tell anyone, but I like you.
Whoa cuz, I can only imagine what the snickers and giggles must have been like in that room. Its great to see a pic of Harris obout too.
don't worry cla....... shieldmaiden. i won't tell a soul.
Dan, maybe we should tell Whitney, just to be fair and all. But don't tell Davis-- I'd like to keep my options open.
