Cool and Collected

Collecting pop culture toys, comics, and collectibles collections

June 9, 2014 By Brian 19 Comments

This week’s assignment from the League: Look what I made!

Last week, the League of Extraordinary Bloggers‘ had an AWESOME turnout, with many old friends and even some new ones, contributing to the topic.  Hopefully, we can keep the momentum going with this week’s assignment…

—

Look what I made! Do you worship at the altar of MacGyver? Have you ever drawn a stick figure? Given birth to a child? Put together an Ikea product? Let’s see it!

Once you put up a post on your site, add a comment below with the URL so everyone knows where to find it. Remember to include links to your fellow League members in your article, along with a League logo and link, so other bloggers can learn how to join in the fun.

Blog karma is a good thing — by cross-posting like this, we will help send each other new readers, and receive a few in return. If you would like to join the League, all you need is a love of pop culture and a blog. Come join the fun, and tell your friends!

    I’m totally cheating because I did this and posted it back in 2012. Maybe now I’ll reconstruct it with more solid materials and finish the damn thing.

      I don’t think your first comment ever came through Cal. I don’t see it here in the dusty archives.

    […] week’s assignment for the League of Extraordinary Bloggers asks us to show something we’ve made. Luckily Lee pays more attention to the things I make than I do because I totally blanked on this […]
