Kotaro Ono’s blog How Many Studs to LEGOLAND? is one of my favorite LEGO blogs, where I can keep up with everything that’s happening in the Japanese LEGO fan community.
But Kotaro, who also goes by Earl_0 online and はくしゃく (“Hakushyaku”) in Japanese, is also a really great builder. I featured his retro space creations way back in March 2006.
His latest retro space creation takes advantage of the two-piece goldfish bowl helmet from the Sandy Cheeks minifig in one of the new SpongeBob SquarePants sets.
Hmm… maybe I should get me a couple of those… but it’d need to be from bricklink, I don’t think I could live down owning a whole spongebob set, unless the parts were amazing…
Thank you for blogging mine, but I feel ashamed because I have no doubt that every-space-lover would have same plan for this excellent helmet.
Now on my desk, our little retro spaceman gets a tank on his back.
