Yes, it’s that time of year again.
December 1: Snowboarder Dude with Substantial Goggles
This is a snowboarder dude, with goggles that are of a vastly greater circumference than his waist. I believe that he may be wearing an “ugly sweater” (not my personal aesthetic commentary…I mean that it is in the style of what would be worn to an “ugly sweater party”) that is brown and decorated with bulldozers and a crane hook.
Rating
Fun ★★★☆☆
In general, I’m not a huge fan of Lego people, snowboarding, or disproportionately immense goggles, but the bulldozers are kind of rad and make up for it.
Ease of Build ★★★★☆
The people usually go together pretty easily, although this guy’s goggles are held in place by their own elasticity, and can shoot up to 2ft away when you try to attach them to his helmet. If we assume that this guy would be about 5′ 8″, that means that his goggles are getting shot 86.4ft, which is wild.
Comprehensibility ★★★★★
It’s a guy with a snowboard. I think we’re good. I reserve the right to revise this score in case there is a deeper meaning to be read into the sweater as the mystery unfurls, but for now, perhaps naïvely, this is well-understood.
Extra Parts ★★★★☆
There are always extra parts. This one comes with extra goggles (presumably because they can be fired off of his head with dramatic force) and a pompadour/helmet hair wig.
Overall ★★★★☆
Snowboarder Dude with Substantial Goggles is a fine start for 2024.
