Lego Liopleurodon

Some good friends of ours gave Nolan this for Christmas.He has been totally enthralled by it- asking everyone what their favorite dinosaur is.
Nolan discovered that his favorite non- dinosaur from the prehistoric period is the liopleurodon. (Apparently anything that swam or flew was not a dinosaur- but rather a prehistoric reptile- who knew?!?)
When Nolan gets obsessed with a new creature- he has to recreate it (a drawing, a painting, or a sculpture)
He recreated this:

From these:

I thought that it was awesome- but now have to convince Nolan that we can't keep it forever- cuz his siblings want to use the legos too!


Nolan wants to know, "What is your favorite Dinosaur?" (Or Non- dinosaur- as the case may be!)

Nolan's recreation of the Liopleurodon is excellent. (You may have a future Lego engineer in the family.)

As for favorite dinosaurs: Aunt Amy likes both the brachiosaurus and Sauroposeidon. (Two of the largest dinosaurs. The ground would shake as they walked.) As for Uncle Nathan his favorites are Triceratops and Stegosaurus. (Two funny looking and interesting dinosaurs.)
