Darnok Posted October 28, 2019 Posted October 28, 2019 "Come on, come on ye all! Take yer chance, throw some pineapple, win big prizes!" A young Mardieran fellow had set up a ball toss booth at the Weelond Oktoberfest. Enthusiastic about his new enterprise - which he had spent all his money on - he attracted quite a bit of interest in the festive crowds. One WTC Marine was ready to challenge his luck: "Alrighty man, the WTC to the rescue! So how does this work exactly?" "Awesome! You just step behind the plank and throw the pinapple at the different targets. Hit all of in five tries and you win a prize, it's that easy!" "Bah, humbug! Pineapples are for losers, and I'll do it in one try. See, I have my special ball here..." "WAIT!!! NOOOO!!!!" ... "So... what's the prize now, mate?" ======================================================= My (sadly only one) entry for this years Weelond Oktoberfest minichallenge - in the event category. Blowing up a festival booth counts for an event I'm sure. Once more with feeling without minifigs: As always, comments and criticism is welcome and appreciated! Quote
Maxim I Posted October 29, 2019 Posted October 29, 2019 Hahaha, the WTC-member won't get a duck as price due cheating (and the ducks been blown up). Quote
Capt Wolf Posted October 29, 2019 Posted October 29, 2019 I love how the pineapple-as-soccer-ball motif has developed a life of its own! Fun scene, and very in-step with the WTC reputation. Quote
Bregir Posted October 29, 2019 Posted October 29, 2019 Lovely little stand and amusing story. A few burning embers may have improved you post-explosion build, but in general, an amusing and well-built little entry! Quote
Tezclatipoca Posted October 29, 2019 Posted October 29, 2019 Funny build ! It reminds me the "Minions" first movie scene where Gru is destroying a similar booth with a laser ! Quote
Fraunces Posted October 29, 2019 Posted October 29, 2019 And again, it is hard to be a Mardierian in the world of BotBS Top little scene. Quote
Captain Dee Posted October 30, 2019 Posted October 30, 2019 (edited) Hahaha, classic WTC... Where is the crying man's face from? Way back yonder in 1997-98, during a break from a school trip to NASA's Wallops Island, we stopped by an amusement park for the evening. I had one of those fabulous disposable cameras and when we stopped by the laser-rifle shooting range I learned that the camera flash would set off all the animatronic targets simultaneously. No, we did NOT get kicked out after a half-dozen flashes. Why do you ask? Edited October 30, 2019 by Captain Dee Quote
