    This is so wrong, in so many ways... Plastic sheeting for the water? Couldn't they scrounge up a few more blue baseplates and do it proper?

    @Dr Emilio Lizardo: So if someone is afraid of gay zombies, would they be called a homophobe?

    Or would their fear indicate a certain latent yearning to be a gay zombie them self?

    A few of those scenes look like they are from "Land of the Dead", especially the zombies walking into the lake.

    Love the idea of using a combine to kill zombies.

    @TemporalSword: My child has been known to complain about a trip to the LEGO store, as her mother is active in a LEGO club, and does several shows a year. (we hope it's just a phase...)

    @redqueenmeg: The sets are nice but they don't give you much to do anymore. Too pre-built. You might just want to start off with a bucket of basic bricks and building plates.

    What I covet is this Lego table. You can build on the Lego plate surface and there are bins underneath for storage.

    @TemporalSword:
    Eh, just skip that part and start buying for yourself (free S&H from S@H through the 12th, which means you can keep that UCS Millennium Falcon down to a mere $500!). Seriously, kids may enjoy Duplo, and really little kids may enjoy Primo, but you're going to be very frustrated if you have to wait long enough for the little one to stop chewing on small objects before you can buy cool themed sets and stuff.

    @amygdala:
    Which LUG? In MichLUG there are only a couple members who regularly bring their kids to club events, but even the ones that sometimes complain about doing events still enjoy building sets, and if they enjoy that they'd certainly have fun at a LEGO store (not that we get to have any around here...).

    @My_Latest_Incarnation:
    Try the UCS Millennium Falcon. That'll keep you busy for a few weeks.

    And what I'd prefer is the coffee table that I waited too long to buy:
