While at the TwinLUG meeting a couple of weekends ago, I heard that LEGO no longer produces the mini-fig hip part in yellow, considering it “nudity.” Not sure if that’s true or not, it seems like it’d be fairly harmless in any of the licensed lines where they’re using flesh-toned minis.
Anyway, it reminded me that if I was having Harry walk around naked for a while I’d need to break out the digital effects.
There’s a long and glorious tradition I’m upholding here. Legostar Galactica used the technique in the very first strip. Remember: Only steal from the best.
How long have you been making Reasonably Clever?
@Adam: Do you mean the comic? It started September 18th, 2006. The site itself? It’s been around in various incarnations since 1995 or so. (Although not under the name Reasonably Clever until early 2001.)
If that’s the case regarding minifig nudity, then that means that the yellow Classic Space figs are naked and tattooed! Cool.
@Louise: Or they’re just wearing fleshcolored uniforms.
@Doyle: Ah the nudity gag, my first LEGO comic joke. that takes me back.
@Dr.Legostar: Heh! I had forgotten about that! I’ve updated the notes with a link. 🙂
Noticed a mistake: In the final panel, the bush is gone. Other than that, it’s great!
chris what was is called before
@Nikolai: It’s still there. I just changed the camera angle. There’s just more distance between the bush and Harry than it seems.
@bradley: The Island Of Bootleg Toys.
Maybe he’ll use the Plantpants that he and the other whiskey wore when they got blasted out of the chef robot?
You never blurred out that butter guy for us.
They really got rid of the yellow T-piece? Wow. That sucks. Love the comic.
@ The One Guy: You mean Pat O’ Buttah? Whatever happened to him?
he was melted. for real. chris lit him on fire.
