Thoughts?  Any other ways to improve the hobby image of LEGO?

Bring your minifigs to work!

I remember "Bring Your Minifig To Work Day - Dec. 13, 1996"  If you search
Google Groups, you'll see my posting with the above title.  I brought in 45
minifigs that day.  :-)

I've had three Vikings and two Town guys with a box truck I built with my
company's logo on it on my desk for a year or so now.  Starting about a month
ago, a co-worker started bringing in little green plastic army men (non-Lego) so
she could stage mini-battle scenes around the office.  Currently her men are
holding the town figs hostage on her desk and my murdered Vikings have mutated
into a giant ViKING beast.  I've threatened to bring in all my figs and surround
her desk with catapults and hang space fighters from the ceiling........

....uh, but I don't recommend this sort of behavior for those still worried
about other co-workers thinking you still play.....
