Bully's Lego Star Wars Advent Calendar Countdown 2012: Day 21
Hello, everybody, and welcome back to Bully's Advent Colander!
I've been waiting for weeks to make that joke.
No, no, seriously (hee hee hee), let's peep in and see what's goin' on with my Lego Star Wars Advent Calendar! Today: Day 21!
Hmmm. I don't know what this is going to be, but it looks like it has a pretty cool hat.
I am attempting to mind-meld with this packet of Lego bits and guess what it will be. Then again, there's no wrong way to build a Lego model! Um, except that way. Please don't do that.
Hey! It's a cheeseburger deluxe with an olive on the side! The favorite meal of all Jedi! Oh, wait, no, I'm made another one of my Star Wars mistakes. 'Tis actually that bucket of bolts beloved across the galaxy, the Millennium Falcon!
Like our hapless TIE fighter pilot yesterday, Chewie is baffled about how he will get into the Falcon. Don't worry, Chewbacca...it's bigger on the inside. (Or am I thinking of something else?)
Tomorrow! Something else very tiny that a minifig can't fit in, I'm guessing. Either, that, or another colander pun! tee hee hee hee hee

Bully's Lego Star Wars Advent Calendar Countdown 2012: Day 20
When you shout down into compartment #20 of my Lego Star Wars Advent Calendar, it creates a most interesting echo! Hello hello hello hello hello hello
And inside: yet another packet of little Lego pieces! I think I'm beginning to get the gist of how this thing works.
I have made a tiny TIE fighter! A really, really tiny teeny itty bitty TIE fighter.
It's so miniscule that I don't even think my TIE fighter pilot can get into it.
Well, if he's going to get in a race with the Rebel Alliance, at least we know what the result will be.
