Here’s a quick couple of photos of the installation of the aforementioned rack. I got it from RMB for xmas 🙂

I’ve been looking for a low profile way of carrying things on my bike, and this was the least offensive looking option. Givi’s rack looks like someone gave the apprentice a pipe bender and said have at it. 🙁

It’s a rather simple affair, with a couple of spacers sit where the original rear handle bar mounted, a couple more into the helmet hooks and bob’s your aunty. They sell adaptor modules to take all the major brands of top boxes, but at this stage I just like that I’ve got a flat, solid place to tie stuff to 😀

I’m sure no one will mind that I’m a little later with this post - it’s only one year and one day late 🙂

Santa and a fire place

Santa and his modern sleigh

Technology helps all of us - why would Santa not take advantage of motorised methods for delivering presents - giving the reindeer a much-needed night off 🙂 This is the third snowmobile set I’ve gotten from the Advent Calendars so far - I’m really starting to get a collection 🙂

Sith Santa :)

This one should come as no surprise to anyone - it takes up 1/4 of the front of the box 🙂 It’s definitely a nicely designed interpretation though, with a cool little cape and a fuzzy hat 🙂

This won’t be the last post for the LEGO Advent Calendars for 2012, I’m going to do some overview shots and a “list of the codes” post just in case. These will come after christmas as I’m sure tomorrow will be busy for all of us.

Dog with bones

Presents for everyone!

Presents are what they’ve made this time of year into, so let’s have some!

Gear rack with extinguisher and axe

Just what the firefighters need - gear to help them fight fires! This extends the wall found in other days of the 2012 calendar.

Skater boy

The gray hat might be a beanie, but I’d like to think it was a skate helmet, perfect for the little boy to use the skateboard found in day 7 of the 2011 calendar.

It’s a snow-droid!

Today’s set is really cool - took me a few seconds to work out what it actually was, but it’s a snow-droid! Complete with top hat, coal eyes and carrot gauges 🙂

The LEGO Star Wars code for day 23 is 9494.

Only one day to go!

Police Snowmobile

A different colour scheme snowmobile to the one on day 20 - with the tow point again and you can imagine some cool chase scenes with this one 🙂
