These were built for the upcoming March 2008 “Around the World in 80 Days”
themed TexLUG display. I think I did a pretty decent job, considering I’m
working with inventory scraps and leftovers.

I was
originally going to build it “as it was,” complete and whole, but my wife
convinced me to build it “as it is,” something I have not yet seen in LEGO
bricks.

I purposely
built it wrong so that it ‘looked right’ (the real pyramid has 9 steps, not 6).
The pyramid’s steps are also a bit too steep, but this was built from spare
parts, so I didn’t have a lot of plates to donate to this project. Like the
real pyramid, one can create the feathered serpent climbing the steps at the two
equinoxes:

I think your wife gave you some great advice, the “as is” version is nicely
done. I really enjoyed it. Great work Tony.

What are these spare parts you speak of? Aren’t all parts of equal value?
