Cyndi, I remember having the same feeling--and as the one who counted the votes, I can tell you exactly what happened; Felix had too many creations in the sculpture room! He had a number of different pieces garner votes (I voted for this one, which has always been my favorite Felix figurine) and that split the vote enough for a different artist to win. But hey, as Max Fischer would say, sic transit gloria.

And of course, that’s a great story, Felix. But including AFOLs in that book isn’t a good fit; quite frankly, LEGO is almost mainstream at this point. But pigeon racing? That’s just weird.
