Aliens

Yagoni
Aliens are a new favourite with young David. This one is from the people at test tube aliens®. Yagoni here is a good alien; he is protector of the good aliens. He was commander of Naratuko.
This one has a heart beat that changes colour depending on its condition. Red is healthy. It stops growing after 14 days apparently which is good because it is out growing the test tube. It can not survive outside the tube.

Loogeez love their looog
This blue one was fun while he lasted but died young. He chattered almost none stop until it just died. We thought it was batteries, but no - shame!
Update December 2006:
It has sparked into life very briefly several times recently so it is probably a dodgy connection
that is the fault.

Dodec
Now we have an evil alien! Still growing this one. Another from test tube aliens®.
Update April 2007:

Wild Mutt
And now we are into Ben10. He can turn into ten alien life forms to stop evildoers. Wild mutt, here, is more animal than humanoid. He has great athletic strength and heightened sense of smell, hearing and taste. Are you keeping up?
Bionicles
And yet another alien lifeform grabs his interest. From early 2008 his interest in these Lego creations has grown. It is difficult to say whether this interest has prompted the desire to learn about computers or that was coming anyway because of exposure at school but he regularly visits the Bionicle website. I will try and upload some of his own creations. Ben still gets a look in but he's not king. Other Lego gets some play time too. It's fun to be a kid.
