Holodoc Posted May 16, 2018 I know, you all have been waiting for it. Well, at least one has been waiting for it, so here I start the countdown for the last 10 days to the event 2018 in Billund, Denmark. This year the countdown will be once again combined with a little challenge. This time it's all about parts.Parts, which have a special relation to the days left. Tell us what a relation might be and you receive 1 point. If you manage to figure out what I thought of, you'll get 3 points. Prices at the end: None besides my never ending esteem. Let's start with a no-brainer: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Skalldyr Posted May 17, 2018 (edited) There is obviously a "9" printed on that 1x1 tile (I am not very creative in the morning...) EDIT: I just realized that you mean Homer and not the tile As I said I don't funktion in the morning. Next guess:Homer consists of 9 individuale parts. (1 head, 1 torso, 2 Arms, 2 hands, 2 legs, 1 hip) Edited May 17, 2018 by Skalldyr Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(1 head, 1 torso, 2 Arms, 2 hands, 2 legs, 1 hip) My guess too was 9 parts of Homer's body. But Skalldyr was first, so if it's correct, it's his score.

MstrOfPppts Posted May 17, 2018 9 beers to speak french? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lasse D Posted May 17, 2018 There is a "9" over the right ear of the Homer minifig. Or so you might think. It is actually a "G" - whereas the left side has an "M". They are the initials of the creator Matt Groening. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WhiteFang Posted May 17, 2018 Homer Simpson (CMFs) is the ninth CMFs minifigure which is discarded into your minifigures’ bin. Or rather, Homer Simpson is your ninth all-time favourite LEGO CMFs minifigure for the parts speciality. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lasse D Posted May 17, 2018 The Homer minifig appears in 9 sets (according to BrickLink): 71006 71016 71005 71202 71009 6059283 6100812 colsim2-1 colsim-1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MstrOfPppts Posted May 17, 2018 @Skalldyr didn't you learn anything from the countdown a couple of years ago?! No splitting of the minifigs! 1 hour ago, Bob De Quatre said: I'll take on that challenge! Bring me the beers! If I can understand your french after nine beers, you pass the challenge!
