This was one of the unique projects I did in October of 2020 for the Rebuild the World campaign. It was a collaboration with to create and alien monster with a rainbow background that children requested. There's also a YouTube video of the project.

Since I am just about to travel to the City of Sin for a couple days, I figured I would post my old sign with showgirl and Elvis impersonators alongside.

Where my LEGO career started. Although this wasn't my first job with LEGO, it was where my fulltime LEGO life started.

I would have never predicted that getting my childhood dream job would take me in the past 21 years.

I spy the kid in a pumpkin costume I designed around 20 years ago in these pics from LEGOLAND Billund 🔎🎃🙂
