Other than having a dark sense of humor, why would I title an article about this LEGO gas station in such a way? The service station has a well-worn feel. There’s a couple of motorcycles and the patrons there seem friendly enough. But when you take a close look at this creation by Dan the Fan you begin to see several minifig torsos used in creative ways. There are two in gray holding up the shell sign and four in dark gray acting as the base for the water tower. Several more upside-down torsos comprise the trim design of the building while another two in red make up part of the gas pump. My favorite use of the minifig torso however is in the road sign, partially comprising the shape of Texas. Can you spot other uses for the minifig torso?

Many retailers are doing heavy discounts in stores on various LEGO sets and I’ve been told a few times that Walmart has the LEGO Speed Champions Lamborghini Huracán Super Trofeo EVO (30342) polybag on sale for only $0.50. Normally, polybags are now priced at $4.97 but some people have found them for a whopping 90% off. You can check Brickseek to see if there are any near you.

Vince Toulouse illustrates the error of their ways with this Ambassador of Grnx wearing a DOTS band as a sash.

As if that wasn’t enough, Vince brings in another limited appeal line with the use of flame bits from the short-lived Ben 10 sets. It just goes to show that on the surface, some sets have limited appeal but in the hands of a builder like Vince, there is no limit to what can be used.
