Way before the invention of cameras, the artist is the most popular guy in town. Every ladies' dream to have a portrait like Mona Lisa. 
this minifigure reminds me of the Argentina player Gabriel Batistuta, soccer player is one of the favourite now, together with rocker.

Lego rapper, pop star and punk rocker from the music industry
Sports champion, judo, soccer player and sumo wrestler, now you know why sumo is having the grumpy face. Gold, Silver Brozne. 
Ninja from Ninjago set 2516
opened the small set Ninjago 2516 Ninja Training Outpost today, this is the only ninjago set i have at the moment, the other set i'm interested in is 2258 Ninja Ambush, probably get it later when there is a discount.
Dastan vs the Ninjas. who's quicker/faster?
The ninja from minifigures series 1 and Ninjago Ninja Cole, the new ninja torso is an improvement with more details. By the way what do you guys think of the red, white, blue ninja? Black is still the best for a ninja.
Here's an update on the my recent lego addition and a quick look at the local lego store (Mar 13 Sunday). Last Friday, 6 star wars minifigures purchased on ebay arrived they are added to my current minifigs population, with the first ewok wicket and extra Admiral Ackbar.
Current Lego City police display at the store. Move the magnifying glass and identify the criminal. The display was kind of low (height) they are just for kids.
the lego criminals each holding an item, including carrot & fish
Pharaoh's Quest new release display, the pyramid, taking a close look, the vehicle with the attached machine gun was kind of crappy in terms of design. I'm sure they can do better than this.
new Lego Promotion Poster for Pharaoh's Quest
So we have a group of Japanese spending weeks to build this. How much lego are being used here? The initial planning, design, the building and man-hours involved...
