And here she is working hard in a lab.
(not mine, I found it elsewhere on the internet)
Jazz musician? Blues Brother.
That is a large popsicle. I wonder what flavour.
Tsk, tsk. Boiling chemicals without proper eye protection, coffee mug in close proximity to chemical storage and laboratory apparatusā¦
Iām sure youāll get a few other corrections, but thereās no real reason to refer to the LEGO scientist as a FEMALE scientistā¦one wouldnāt say male scientistā¦SCIENTIST will do! Thanks!
PS - is the scientist referred to as a āfemale scientistā on the box?
If itās the first one Lego has ever produced, doesnāt that become something of a relevant thing to note? The point of the article isnāt that Lego produces scientist minifigs; but that theyāve historically produced only male scientists.
(As for the box, you can only get it in the āMythical Creatures 2-packā along with the Yeti, and the internal documentation refers to ālab co-edā.)
Both are excellent additions to the minifig universe!
Bah, in my day minifigs had one expression and we used our imaginations! Grumblegrumblegrumble.
But then, there are many who will say that it all went careening downhill (well before my time) the day they started including building instructions in the sets.
Just like a Real Scientist!
Yes, there is a reason. Iāve clarified my post. Thank you.
Sheās researching female chemistryā¦
in my underwater lab
THAT HAS COME UNDER ATTACK BY PIRATES
QUICK, WE NEED PILOTS FOR THE MARTIAN BATTLE CRUISERS
So the lab co-ed is as mythical a creature as the Yeti?
I dunno. Iām pleased to see more female figures (and female heads, which is half the battle right there) appearing. Iām hoping that it means Lego may be realizing that creating a separate product line for girls was not only somewhat offensive but Just Plain Dumb. But they do still seem to have some stereotype problems. Waitress? Bavarian lass with giant pretzel?
(Grandma I donāt mind as long as grandpa also exists.)
Nitrile gloves. Nice.
It is actually just a small Yetiā¦ I am assuming yak or sheep flavored.
Florence flasks are better. Also, there needs to be a twisted tangle of glassware where the center glows āEat At Joeāsā in the dark.
Yeti - rock on! Chick Scientist - you are fuckinā kidding me sheās the first one theyāve put out.
So the lab co-ed is as mythical a creature as the Yeti?
My very first thought when I saw this story.
So when the Juno probe gets to Jupiter in 2016 (I note that itās doing an Earth flyby October 9 2013), will there be reproductions of the 3 Lego figures strapped to it?
Jupiter, Juno, and Galileo.
Juno is holding a magnifying glass, though it looks kind of like a frying pan, leading me to believe sheās about to wallop Jupiter with it ala Andy Cappās wife.
Iām expecting Pax Dickinson to tweet that Lego has released two mythical minifigs in 3ā¦2ā¦1ā¦
You should check out the expression on the āhazmat guyā minifig. Freaking hilarious!
