X-mas Time!

So, for the holidays I purchased the "Nativity Manger + Three Wise Kings" (5719), "Christmas in the Forest" Advent Calendar (4155), "Santa Claus and Elf" (5846) and "Santa Claus and Snowman" (5845). I figured I'd set up a cute scene, along with my "Kool Toys" xmas train, xmas tree... I got home and opened the boxes... that's where the drama began! There was no Virgin Mary in the box!!! The box was sealed and all the little sealed baggies where inside, but I had no Mary! The Horror!I had all the other figures... so, what to do, what to do... taking advantage of the customization qualities of these figures I was able to have a complete Nativity Scene! I took Joseph's beard and tunic off and slapped on Mary's veil on him. The Hobo looking guy (I guess a shepherd) ended up being Joseph... and voila! I had my whole family together again!Now that the family crisis was over, I realized that I had 3 Santa Claus... well, any normal, well-adjusted person would use one of the and store the other two... not me! I tossed a few pirates and knights into the mix and we had an all out war! Two armies battling over which Santa gets to deliver the gifts this year! Here are some pics...
So, instead of having a peaceful holiday season, it was a boold bath... and so it began the Legendary War between the Pirates and the Knights (more pics on that later on).
