The Surfer

i know you aren't the first to do that with the legs, but i still can't help but say it looks so good!

beautiful.

hidden joints?

Lovin' the wake.

Luverly.

Win

Shark head goes here ;D

Aye

I've never been a fan of the stud on top of 'bald' minifigs. Other than that, this is totally tubular, dude. And that's coming from someone born in Surf City USA (Santa Cruz CA)....

The only hair I think would work on this is the Anakin style and I don't have that so I chose to go without

what about tile hair

yes

Maybe he can be Kelly Slater :)

Surfing seemed to grow hugely in popularity in the late eighties / early nineties so here I present an entry for The Brother's Brick GO MINIMAN GO Photo Contest: "The Surfer".

This was completely unexpected.

Thanks for all the blogs, comments and faves. Being #1 on explore was pretty sweet also.

Just to answer one criticism, there's no glue in this. Lego plates are very sturdy.

Thanks again.
