Addams Family Mansion Modular

Thank you for so many votes of support and wonderful comments. As the project approaches 10,000 supporters, I want to say THANK YOU 10,000 times over!

Most importantly a huge thank you from the entire Addams Family:  Morticia, Gomez, Pugsley, Wednesday, Grandmama, Uncle Fester, Cousin Itt, Lurch and Thing!!

The Mansion was so much fun to build, and all this support has been wonderful! I am glad so many have enjoyed seeing the build and paid a call on this creepy and kooky, mysterious and spooky, and altogether ooky Addams Family Mansion!

In case you want to sing along while browsing the pictures, here again are the lyrics from the original show’s theme song:

      They're creepy and they're kooky, mysterious and spooky

      They're all together ooky, the Addams Family

      Their house is a museum, when people come to see-em

      They really are a scre-um the Addams Family

      Neat, sweet, petit!

      So, get a witch's shawl on, a broomstick you can crawl on

      We're going to make a call on the Addams Family

      They're creepy and they're kooky, mysterious and spooky

      They're all together ooky, the Addams Family

      Their house is a museum, when people come to see-em

      They really are a scre-um the Addams Family

      Neat, sweet, petit!

      So, get a witch's shawl on, a broomstick you can crawl on

      We're going to make a call on the Addams Family

All the best!

Thank you for almost 8,000 votes of support! Fingers are crossed for another 2,000!

But just sitting watching the votes roll in is not enough LEGO fun, so I built and just submitted this new MOC,

When the Addams Family Mansion got back from its trip to Billund LEGO House, a remarkable thing had happened: Gomez had grown a moustache!! One of the LEGO designers found the perfect one and here he is with it!

And the whole family now looks like this:

Thank you for 7,000 votes!

Family and mansion just finished a great visit to the LEGO House, and participated in the 10 Year LEGO Ideas Display in the lobby. Have a look, we are way down at the bottom of the post:

Thank you for the continuing support and great comments!

With help from more keen eyed fans, a few more alien bricks were identified, and they have now all been replaced with LEGO brand. Top offenders were the torches, so new a photo shoot was taken, find all images here, with highlights in this update: https://www.flickr.com/photos/140336078@N03/albums/72157693298629335

Also, by popular demand I have updated the minifigures, adding Thing delivering mail, a shawl on grandmama, and Morticia with her clasic black dress.

Thank you for all the support this week!

And special thanks to whataslacker for pointing out a critical error of an inadvertant inclusion of foreign species (non-LEGO) roses into the greenhouse! Not sure how those made it into the parts bucket, but they are heretofor banished, and replaced with the following:
