Thanks!
The bulb was very tricky - it's 6-lobed (though I had a hard time
telling from the cartoon whether it's supposed to have 5 or 6 lobes,
and took the easier choice). It used up almost all the green from 10
3033 tubs.
I am also uncomfortable about the size of Bulbasaur's body (the part
below the bulb). I feel the Nintendo folks or whoever designed him
should have made the body smaller and the bulb larger. But I think
the Lego model is pretty close. The relative sizes of his body and
bulb seem to vary a lot on different cartoons, comic books, etc.
I've thought about doing Psyduck, but the trouble is, he's neither
yellow nor orange, but somewhere in between. If I used yellow and
stood him next to Pikachu that just wouldn't do. And Lego's orange is
too bright and dark - he'd look sunburnt.
What I'll probably do next is Squirtle or Charmander, if I continue
doing Pokemon models.
