Nothing truly special as a Lego contest entry here...

I've got a funky boomerang shaped cake slicer from Lego...but then again,
it's a fairly common item--for Lego employees... Got a Tahu Standup from
Brickfest, A Happy Halloween Duplo brick, and some various cardboard store
display pieces..

  Hi, everyone.

  I was going through a few things here at my home in Michigan,
  and I ran across something odd that I'd forgotten about.  It
  got me thinking:  What kind of true oddities that have some
  connection to LEGO--themed items, promotional things, or other
  tie-ins that are bizarre--do people here have?  There are
  easily enough hard-core, longtime collectors from around the
  world here to have some strange items from the early days of
  LEGO as well as some of the newer promotional items.

  To kick this off, I'll share my only slightly odd item: a
  lightsaber handle from the Wal-Mart 1999 (IIRC) "lightsaber
  building" competition.  It's a black plastic "handle" with
  a + shaped set of plates screwed into the top upon which to
  anchor a "blade."  Apparently these were not supposed to be
  released by the stores, being promotional items, but I
  bought a clearance bucket and one was hiding in there.

  What do all of you have?  (John, your 1593 is unusual, but
  it doesn't count.  ;) )

  Eagerly awaiting tales of mystery and intrigue,
