Parents make amazing R2D2 birthday cake with Princess Leia hologram. Kids don’t get it.
Last week we spotted this in the window of a toy store:
The Death Star. In Legos. For just under Php40,000.
We hate the child who gets this for a present. That child will lose the pieces within days. Then again, the child who gets this Lego Death Star probably won’t get to play with it. He or she is merely the excuse for buying it. It’s for the parents ha ha. (That’s what kids are for.)

hahaha, poor R2. A list of other cake concepts for the future:

It’s for the “collector” who would not even dream of opening it, for that would destroy its mint condition and lower its “value”. It will be the collector’s own mini time capsule in a box for perpetuity.
Still dreaming of building and for Lego to release this on their Technic series:

The way I see it, one of the reasons to become a wealthy adult is to buy all the toys you never had as a child.
One of these days I will have a Lego Super Star Destroyer.

Have them kids wrap their minds around a Lego Barbie, and let’s see what they make up of it.

Stinking Death Star. Those suckers cost at least $400 here. 2 nephews have been drooling over that set for months. One set of parents haven’t caved (yet) and the other parent is making the kid save up for it. Kid decided to invest in Garbage Pail kids cards instead (which i used to buy for his dad for 25 cents a pack; now it’s something like $7!!)
Yes – Lego pieces will get eaten, as evidenced by the pieces we found in my 11 month old nephew’s poop a couple of weeks ago. Reminder to inspect Caitlyn’s poop.
