Minifigs are my little girl's special job - that's how she "helps" me put a set
together. (She's 3.) I pick out all the pieces for her, plus accessories, and
she's learning to follow the instructions to match up the tops and bottoms
correctly. For new minifigs she might need help getting the leg studs all the
way in, but she's getting very good at it, and it's a source of pride for her,
and conversation for us. She worries about minifigs who don't have hats or
hair - "but their heads might get cold!" - or aren't smiling - "Why is this
person sad?" She might get them done by the time I'm finished. So, in answer,
they are started first but finished last.
Cheers, Heather
