Hi Michael,

I like it!  The rowboat looks good turned backwards and you chose a good
sail.  Probably one of the few with a design that might be mistaken for
space.  The manta fits in good as well.  Better than in my entry.  The
Wibble is fun too.  I laughed out loud when I saw it.  What did you use to
hold it together?  The single eye is perfect.  Maybe you need to build a
whole wibble civilization.  Way to go!

Hi Josh, thanks for the compliments!

The Wibble was initially just a way to use two more lame pieces, but I think
it looks cute :)  It is held together with boring old Blu-tack (a bit of a
cop-out, but unavoidable in the circumstances).

And a Wibble Asteroid civilization does sound kinda fun.  I've only got two
footballs and six pistons though, so that would be hard.
(But I do have a pile of one-eye bricks.  They seem to be in every
Basic/Creator set these days...)

Stay tuned for Lame parts entry II - Lamestar fighter! :)

Hey Michael, The football pieces are about 10 cents on bricklink. You could make six wibbles and use the six for all your pictures. You could make an entire lame wibble asteroid belt.
