LEGO Ideas Signing event in Vienna !

Great set, great review, surprisingly light on the wallet !

Hi! In the Eurobricks Günzburg event building challenge that you can see the pics here, I built the famous swedish childrens character Pippi Longstocking: I´m glad I could use the carrot part as part of the hair also! And yes, it´s up on Ideas if you want to have a "closer" look !

And it's gone! Can't find him or his other projects either.

Thanks! And if you can - spread the word!

Great pics ! Thanks for a great event together, I really had a good time and it´s always a pleasure to meet other members!

Peppy and I have arrived at Günzburg station - were is the limo ?

Nice! Some info about the character, maybe a small picture!?
