USE CODE JOHNNYPRIME FOR $150 OFF YOUR CHIMERA If you’re not already aware, I’ve been getting pretty deep into the ebike culture and community here in NYC. I run the NYC Zooz Club and I helped create Electric Wednesday with Mike Rios of S3 Crew. Electric Wednesday is the glue that holds the various riding clubs together here in NYC. We’ve created something really special. While I still have and…

Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief LEGO set ideas

Our new family tradition is building a LEGO Christmas Village together, so naturally my brain went - Percy Jackson LEGO sets. These are slightly easier to pop out than my dream unboxings, so I'm going to add a couple of these while I work on my annotations.

Fight Scenes

I love the connectivity of some themed LEGO sets, so I'm going to lean into that a little too much.  PJO culminates in a battle on Mount Olympus at the top of the Empire State building.  So I think each battle set should stack to be a floor on a giant Empire State Building (some can combine, think 4 floor tiles wide)

Book 1 gives us a bunch of fun fights.  Spoilers for book 1 and maybe for the series?

Nancy Bobofit and the fountain/Fight with Mrs. Dodds/Fury

Percy in Yancy clothes

Mr Brunner/Chiron in chair (he should have a red umbrella and a book)

Grover in hidden leg form?

Mrs Dodds/Fury (I'm not sure if this is a doable transformation or just two separate minifigs, my lack of LEGO knowledge fails me here)

Nancy Bobofit

Split this - fountain outside on one side, then stairs and a wall to room decorated with big marble frieze of greek gods for the Fury fight.

the fountain should have "grabby" water or moving tentacles of water somehow, the inside should have some sort of moving component - maybe the fury flying with her wings on clear posts

4 tiles wide for the set, 2 for each mini location

Fight with the minotaur 

Sally Jackson, Percy, Grover with satyr feet.  Percy should definitely have a bag with blue candy or cookies in it and his sword

Minotaur with removable horns

The car should be in this, able to be broken by lightning bolt, somehow incorporate the lightning bolt

Thalia's tree, several other trees for Percy to jump off of! Falling tree limbs could be cool.

this could probably be done in 3 tiles.  4th tile for that floor of the building could be the Fruit Stand with the Fates, old ladies in rocking chairs.  Is it a battle? no.  Is it eerie and comes back at the very end?  yes.

Bus fight with the furies - this to me feels like it could jump out of my Empire State Building dream to something separate that is mainly focused on the large bus.  Percy, Annabeth, Grover, 3 furies, a bus driver and 2 random people, luggage, Annabeth's cap.  I'm not going to give it a tile size because it isn't going in my Empire State Building.

Auntie M's and the fight with Medusa

This one is getting a full 4 tiles/entire floor.  all sorts of statues, a place to eat, a place to take a group "picture", the flying shoes, the reflective shield, a way to make Grover fly, INVISIBLE ANNABETH/clear minifig Annabeth.

St Louis Arch with Echidna and Chimera

The little kid who saw the monster has to be a minifig.  And the guide.  Probably no Annabeth or Grover here.  

Plus if the wall of windows can spin or break or something to launch Percy out of it. I really want this to be a full floor/4 tiles, but also that the back half of one of the tiles is an elevator tile that WORKS and can be rigged to create an elevator that goes through to other floors, because elevators show up in other areas too.  one of the tiles on each build would also have to be removable or not feature a bunch of items on it to make this possible... but it would be quite the feature, let's be real.

Waterland Tunnel of Love ride

obviously, the trap feature, the webbing covering it, the boat and then a ramp and a tunnel leading to a jump.  Grover being able to fly again (this feature comes up a lot).  The scarf, the cameras and creepy Cupids, the screen.

Our main three are now decked out in Waterland merch

Lotus Hotel

2 tiles, bright Vegas colors, lots of flowers and games.  Some lights or slides or something should happen here.  LEGO does some really cool "retro" mini builds of their historical sets that would be fun to incorporate here.  Also historical games and minifigs

Crusty's Water Bed Palace

lots of weird beds.  2 tiles.  Crusty and the main 3.  maybe some beds that can flip to have skeletons.  Idk, this one is less fun.

Fight with Ares on the beach.

Full 4 tiles, a giant wave for Percy to ride on, Ares's motorcycle, the helm of darkness, the master bolt, police and exploding police cars.

I skipped a lot there to get to the end battle, I know... but wait, there's more.

The Underworld

Obviously the Underworld is kinda its own thing, but has some parallels to Mount Olympus.  One might even say it is like... the basement of Mount Olympus.  We see more of the Underworld in other parts of the series, but here we do get some epic introductions. The color of the bricks should shift to reflect the underworldliness.

DOA Recordings and the barge/river

This deserves to be two levels and I'm going to make it two levels in this plan here, but I'm going to say that it is only 3 tiles wide.  One tile is an elevator tile that goes down to the river underworld area on the second level.  

Entrance to the Underworld - airport security level and Cerberus

another 3 tile wide - lines and security minifigs.  Could probably get away with just Annabeth, and then Cerberus. Obviously need to add the EZ death lane too.

Cannon launcher for the ball Annabeth throws to Cerberus.

Hades' throne room

the imprisoned Sally Jackson, Hades, the backpack and the masterbolt and the pearls - some sort of lifting/rising feature would be cool here. The three in their pearl bubbles would look really cool

this would be 3 tiles and could attach to...

The chasm to Tartarus

a small set with just one tile in width, but 2 levels high.  The chasm has a trap door feature that would actually swallow a minifig.

Just Grover and the shoes?  His face should show terror.

I really wanted to include the garden of Persephone, but I want that to be special much later in Nico's story.

Camp Half-Blood.

The Big House has some sectional qualities to it.  Percy wakes up in the infirmary, they play pinochle with Dionysus and Chiron on the porch, and there is the attic and the Oracle.  Later on the counselors have a meeting space and Chiron's room is mentioned.

The forest would also have its own theme to it.  There are a lot of battles and skirmishes that take place within it, the entrance to the labyrinth, etc.  Percy's first capture the flag game and the fight with the the black Hellhound near the river would be a great set.  And of course... the claiming of Percy by Poseidon.  All could be part of the same set or broken up.

As far as the rest of camp goes - the bathroom fight with Clarisse could be a cool smaller set with all the toilets exploding.

And finally - the cabins!  I really like how they have LEGO builds where a book folds out to a playscape, and I think there is a lot of opportunity there to mix in different parts of the books and of the camp training with the living situation of the campers with minifigs to match the characters of each.  So a Hermes cabin with plenty of space for an abundance of demigods, with spots to stow smuggled items and the Poseidon cabin with an ocean theme, and possibly having training items to pull out like the lava climbing wall or archery range (from Apollo or Artemis, obviously)

Anyways, that's where I am currently at with my LEGO dreaming. Looking back at this I want to amend my "4 tiles" thought for the size of each floor to a 6 tile thought. I think I have some LEGO building software on my ancient laptop, I might play around with that a bit. OH... or 6 tiles and it FOLDS. Now I want to decorate the outside with stickers of what is happening throughout the books.

"Normally I don't celebrate these sort of things, but I thought I'd give you something for today." Holds up a neatly wrapped box fixed with a bow on it and hands it over to the other android. "A present from me to you, hope you like it."

There’s a very subtle smirk on his face. Mostly because he agreed with the young chimera- he saw no reason to celebrate his birtoday anymore. But it was also the fact the son of the ‘sibling’ he despised the most was giving him a birthday gift.

When he opens it, he laughs loudly, unboxing the hat his nephew had given him, he promptly puts it on and gives the kid a friendly pat on the shoulder- if he had hair he most certainly would have ruffled it.

“Yer a good kid, CJ. And thank you, I love it!”
