Show & Tell - Lego Tank

For this week's Show & Tell, I'm displaying a Lego tank built by our 12-year-old son. He fashioned the Lego tank after the M109A6 Paladins he read about in a library book. The tank contains two guns: a machine gunner on top and a huge howitzer cannon at the front.
Inside the tank is the cockpit, with the gunner sitting in the back. The mini-figure on the right controls the radar, while the figure on the left fires the cannon.
Below deck, these two mini-figures load the howitzer cannon. Also below deck, two large gray engines power the tank.

Will this post get my children interested in my blogging fun? Probably not, but they will want me to put their creations on-line...

That's impressive! You should send that photo to Lego Land in San Diego! They might be impressed too!
Have a wonderful week end!

My son loves Legos too. He plays with them before and after school. Some of his creations amaze me. He calls them inventions. That was a great show and tell. Thanks for sharing.

Ahhh...this post brought back some memories for me. My son loved legos when he was little. He's almost 23 and I still have all his legos. It's about the only thing I've kept after all these years and many moves!

That is quite an accomplishment for a 12 year old to build that! He must have been really proud of himself!

Thanks for sharing!
