I love the King Kong kidnapping baby jesus.
I’ve always wanted to do a life size CRECHE and have a tyranosaurus and maybe a Darwin Fish/chimp/man evolve bit by bit to the scene.
Then a top of it all would be the FSM.
Now, because of you smartasses, I wants a yoda and other assorted action figures and tanks to compliment the scene.
I love and hate you all. So damn much.
This is exactly why I don’t live in a house that lives on a corner of a busy street. my house would be burned down by an angry religous mob and the stoners would be, "Maaaaan, she didn’t mean nothin’ by it. "
Melchior, Balthazar, and Casper in traditional painted ceramics.
I added: Henry Jones, Indiana Jones, and Nazi bike soldier #4, made of tasteful LEGOs.
My neighbors have big ol’ 3/4 scale nativity scene out, complete with 6 foot high camels and other animals. I can’t look upon it without wanting to rearrange it into a bestial orgy scene. Good thing I gots me some serious self control.
I worked at a group home for the mentally retarded that had a lot of “DOE-nated” items (I say it that way because it’s how the residents said, like ‘DOE-nated’ was a brand name- “I love my new DOE-nated shirt!”). One thing was an incomplete Nativity set that was missing a wise man and one of the residents put his (wildly disproportioante to the other figures of course) DOE-nated Obi Wan Kenobi in its place. We called it the “Adoration of the Jedi”.
I’ve never done this, but now I want to. I have several Naruto and Saint Seiya action figures bought in Little Tokyo over the past year or so, along with a few of my daughter’s Pokemon, and thanks to this thread, I’m considering transporting some to my mom’s Nativity scene. In addition to the creche, she has set up a village of porcelain houses and carolers, some of which have no heads thanks to various grandchildren and cats. If I actually do bring my anime characters to mingle with the wise men and the occasional headless villager, I will post pictures.
I finally decorated my office today. My wreath is on the door, and the garland is hung around the door. My little white fiber optic tree is up and decorated with toys around the base. My nativity scene is on my computer, under my monitor where I can see it. Mary, Joseph, Baby Jesus, a shepherd, an angel, and four wise men.
Where else could I put Yoda?
I’ll see if I can get a picture tomorrow.
Oh, and I ordered Han Solo in carbonite. For my Star Wars obsessed daughter, of course.
