I Love Lucy

I was originally planning to have this as part of the set to begin with, but sadly, Superman was not allowed due to third party license agreements, so I am adding it here so you can see it!

I had the back of the apartment lead out to a ledge for Lucy to walk out on, complete with pigeons!

I also added a pipe breaking play feature as well!

I was sad when I had to remove this part of the set, as it was probably my favorite part of the whole thing, but I hope you can enjoy the pictures!

For the next update, I decided to create Lucy's mother's friend's roommate's cousin's middle boy, Tennessee Ernie Ford!

In Season 3, Episode 27, "Tennessee Ernie Visits", Cousin Ernie (played by himself), visits the Ricardo's (unannounced) and makes himself right at home in their apartment. The next episode, "Tennessee Ernie Hangs on", features the Ricardos trying to find a way to send him back to his hometown of Bent Fork, Tennessee, to get him out of their lives!

-Ernie plays "Wabash Cannonball" on Ricky's "gee-tar"

And of course, I had to add the rollaway bed he sleeps "in"!

"In my bed back home, I toss and turn. But not in THAT thing!"

-Cousin Ernie

For this update, I decided to build the scene: Women from Mars!

This scene comes from the episode: "Lucy is Envious", in which Lucy and Ethel are hired to dress as martian women on top of the Empire State Building!

For the minifigures, I decided to give them the special bat wings, as they had a sort of webbing material between their arms. I also made variants with normal arms, as well as a paralyzing ray gun!

(For some reason, the Lego program does not supply the antenna piece, so I had to photoshop them onto the images, which is why they might look a bit funny)

The diorama itself is part of the top of the Empire State Building, including a bench, the railing by the edge, and the sightseeing binoculars.

If anyone has any ideas for another update, please let me know in the comments! I'd love to hear them!

We reached the first milestone of 100 supporters within the first 36 hours! To celebrate, I made over 100 jars of Aunt Martha's Old Fashioned Salad Dressing from "The Million Dollar Idea"!

The jars are all ready for delivery via roller skate and shopping cart!

Keep up the good work everyone! Let's get to the next milestone!
