U.S. Senator Rubén Gallego, an emerging figure in the Democratic Party, says it is highly likely the Donald Trump administration will opt for a new military intervention to force a regime change in Cuba. “Cubans in Florida have a lot of power and the State Secretary, Marco Rubio, is obsessed with the island,” he told reporters on Friday at the Real Instituto Elcano think tank headquarters in Madrid. “But I don’t believe Cuba is a threat to the U.S.; it’s a very poor country of nine million inhabitants,” he added.

The LX Edition is one of my most detailed computer builds to date. It has a fully modelled CRT as well hard drive, floppy drive, and power unit subassemblies. However, the real star of this build is the removable card cage that houses the motherboard and memory boards!

About four years ago I build a bright red fridge with retro styling. Always meant to go back and build a matching range, and I finally got the chance to do so. And I decided to rebuild the fridge from the ground up, too!

My Modular Arcade series returns in May! This second generation features three all-new arcade machine designs (two pictured here), an all-new sit-down arcade racer, and new/improved wall and stairs units. As with previous Modular Arcade units, you can snap them together any way you like to create your own unique arcade.

One of the fun things about the Retro Range is that it's properly sized for the LEGO turkey. :)

I've been wanted to do a coniferous tree with traditional limb elements for a very long time, but as many of you know, it's a challenge to create a classic tree shape with those parts at a relatively small size. However, new elements 26047 and 32828 opened a few doors. Placement of the Voodoo balls towards the top of the tree conveniently fill in unwanted gaps, but in the future, those could be filled by 35480 in tree-appropriate colors for use in a non-Christmas context.

Anyhoo, guides for regular green, olive green, and white variants of this build are now available at chrismcveigh.com!
