Well, Optimus Prime IS Jewish...

So I made a Hannukah card from him. Kitbashed into...





Hee. The candleholders are all removable, I glued bits of styrene tube onto the backs of Prime's wings (and the tops of his wingtips) and drilled a hole in his backpack for the central lighting-candle. Birthday cake candles are made to not drip (much), so I didn't end up with wax all over my toy. Got the central figure at bbts.com for five bucks.

(Oh, and I'm not Jewish myself, it's a joke from Family Guy that I couldn't resist doing something with.)

Edit: Some detail pics for those interested in trying to make their own.

speaking of Transformers and Family Guy, did you guys happen to catch the episode that aired while you were in Ireland? I honestly don't even recall the plot, just that it had two fantastic geek references: Peter conducting the Sand People Choir, and Soundwave: Employee of the Month.

I did catch that, I giggled tremendously, and then did so again when I noticed you put this in Dave's journal and not in mine. Hee!

I was wondering whose Ireland trip was being referred to....

Yeah. The joys of linking. :)
