A Big-Set Bulid

 A couple of weeks ago, my wife was a bit bored and wanted something to do in the evenings. 

She asked if I had any LEGO sets that we could work on together.  

I didn't have any new ones but remembered that there was an unfinished set on a shelf in the basement.

This is the LEGO Ideas Voltron set #21311.

It actually belongs to my seven year old grandson.  He and I had started building it a year and a half ago, but he totally lost interest in it. The set has been languishing on a shelf ever since. We had only gone as far as assembling the two 'Lion' sections composing the mech's lower legs and feet.

So, I pulled the set out so that the missus and I could finish it up over several evenings, one parts bag per session.

It was quite a relaxing, enjoyable activity for us to share together.

Here are the pics of the finished build:







Cheers!
