Hello all,

I’ve build a vignette which I’m able to wear as a badge during events. It combines two of the three themes that kind of signify me within the LEGO community: trains and the Clikits trademark girls.



Attached at the back is a black LEGO refrigirator-magnet brick. With the aid of 3 non-LEGO super-strong mini magnets, I can wear the contraption without doing harm to the fabric of my shirt.



Here you see one of the mini magnets clinging to the LEGO refrigirator magnet-brick, and the other two lay in front. In fact, these magnets are so strong that I could not move them any closer to the model. If I did, they would simply fly up and slam agains the LEGO refrigirator-magnet brick.

Because of the large track part, it would classify as a “double vig” according to the Size Chart for Vignettes. I’ve chosen to use this part instead of simulating a (smaller) piece of track, because of it’s strongness and instant recogniseablility.

With friendly greetings, M. Moolhuysen.

LOL, Manfred, I love it! It's wonderful!

Thank you, Kevin. In particular, I'm pleased with how a lock of Heart's hair
falls into Sam Sinister's hooked hand, and also that despite her situation she
has that special careless smile of a girl who seems convinced that the world
will always comply to her, instead of the other way around :-)

With friendly greetings, M. Moolhuysen.
