This year instead of sending Christmas Cards I decided to use my Makerbot to make something unique for my friends. And naturally the project took on a life of its own.

The final result was 20 Lego Men at 4x the normal size. Each inscribed with a holiday greeting.

Before dispatching them off to the world, I decided it would be nice to take all 20 brothers on a photographic tour of Kansas City.

My 2010 Christmas Cards where Giant Minifigs.  Built over 6 weeks with my original MakerBot Cupcake CNC, this was a hugely ambition project with the equipment available at the time.
