greg3 Posted July 22, 2010 Posted July 22, 2010 A rodeo clown (or Bullfighter) has the dangerous but important job of protecting rodeo riders once they've been thrown. To do this they attract the attention of the bull (hence their often brightly coloured and baggy clothing) and draw it away from the downed man. Often they use padded barrels as protection. They also entertain the crowd during intervals with more traditional clowning routines. Unfortunately I don't have a Lego bull so you'll have to use your imagination!! Another of my Series 1.5 minifigs - inspired by an episode of America's Most Dangerous Jobs (and googling the word clown!!) The barrel was a bit of a challenge but I think it came out looking ok (it probably should be a brighter colour but Lego only make black tires!!) Oh, and he has to take his legs off to fit inside!! Thanks for looking Cheers Greg Quote

Orcasek Posted July 22, 2010 Posted July 22, 2010 This doesn't seem as much of a new one but more of a upgraded version but it is cool. Quote
XimenaPaulina Posted July 23, 2010 Posted July 23, 2010 Nice concept for the rodeo clown. Good use of the tires for the padded barrels. Quote
