I agree, I don't want to butcher my legos if it's at all possible.  As a
side note, you can alter your digital camera pictures without touching the
minifigs.  I would rather not even do that, and tend to avoid the microphone
free figs, but that's my current out.

But some of us pride ourselves on *not* altering LEGO elements.

I'm not saying that doing that kind of stuff is inherently evil, or that your
soul is going to burn for it, but personally I think it's much cooler to see
something built in completely unmodified LEGO bricks- and that includes
minifigs.  I have no problem at all with the phasing out of the classic smiley
in favor of more expressive faces, but I too would like to see them be more
cross-genre.

(...) Aaaaah! Trick photography! :D I'm not sure if that is any better to me as a viewer. Whenever the mic gets taken out, I'mstill viewing something modified... Still, that's not a bad idea. As the builder, I would feel less guilty. :D eric (24 years ago, 30-Oct-00, to lugnet.dear-lego)
