My son likes Legends of Chima so I suggested we continue the story despite the end of the theme. Since I have Rocket Raccoon, I decided to build a new vehicle for a raccoon tribe. It is designed to be quick to sneak into the lion temple, steal chi and get away. The raccoon tail spins with the moving of the back wheels. The ladder is little big. I made a wall like the lion temple wall and the ladder ends up being excessive. The chi is a little hard to get in and out of the storage compartment. I don't like the laser cannon but haven't come up with anything better. The pictures below are from the ideas project. I had thinner wheels on it before but ideas require currently made pieces. (I really should go back and take pictures with the other wheels as I like that better.) Much of my pieces are old so it has more exposed studs than many current Lego designs.

Lovely build! With the CMF animal figures a regular fixture too, there are plenty of animals to add in. It is a lucky kid who can have his own personal continuation of a theme

Haha! This is fun! I hope your kid treasures these times with you!

Great Chima-ey vehicle.

Cool! Love the raccon head up front.

Thanks. I really like how the raccoon head came out. I made a scaled down version for a regular raccoon.

Neat! Looks Scrappy

It's almost perfect! It just need more trans red or blue to make it more chimafied!

I don't have much trans red or blue. The gun should be trans blue not red since I figure they would be stealling regular chi. I did consider including some trans blue but kinda forgot. I'll have to think about where that can be put in.

This is fun! I hope your kid treasures these times with you!

Continuing the story with new tribes is an excellent idea, and you can never have enough raccoons! The oversized back wheels fit the Chima theme rather well, and the name is perfect. Off to Ideas to support it
