In addition, the Sumo Wrestler is listed as 'copper' rather than gold while Marilyn has the Metallic Gold that matches the trophy held by the Karate Master CMF.<br /><br />I bet your cousins wedding involved a ceilidh too!Elspeth De Monteshttp://www.flickr.com/photos/azurebrick/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-276033407505619194.post-29995537053452419972017-02-28T01:19:58.389+00:002017-02-28T01:19:58.389+00:00There are actually two different shades of gold mi...There are actually two different shades of gold minifig trophy. The one that comes with the S2 Judoku is noticeably lighter than the one that comes with the S9 Marilyn, though Bricklink does not recognize this difference. I think all other sources for this element in drum-lacquered gold match the S9 version more than the S2 original.<br /><br />And I think my cousin's husband might prefer your build to the original design. He says he was born on the very northernmost tip of Scotland, and their wedding involved a kilt, a bagpiper, and a plaid garter.Purple Davenoreply@blogger.com
