What I love most though is their imaginative play with the toys. They don't limit themselves to what you are supposed to build from the Lego set. Although they do construct the required item first and play with it for a long time, they eventually assemble something else entirely. I wanted to share some of the things I found on my camera the other day. Enjoy!
Here's Anakin and a few Clone Trooper friends taking out a Mandalorian Trooper and his friends
The leader of the Mandalorians has met Anakin before and lost his legs in the battle
But that hasn't stopped him from hunting Anakin across the galaxies
Raley combined several pieces from many sets to recreate the Twilight, a Corellian vessel Anakin and Ahsoka had to limp home in on the "Clone Wars" tv show.
Here is one of Clay's creations. He calls it a "Clone Land Speeder" driven by a clone named "Threes"
Here is another picture I found on the camera. When I asked the boys about it, Clay said he took it so that he could remember which guys he had while playing with Pattie. His box of Galactic Heroes toys is on the left and hers is on the right.
There are a lot more but I don't want to bore you. I just wanted to show you one of the main reasons I refer to my kids as "clones". We live Star Wars around here and I couldn't be happier!

I like the Galactic Heroes series, but my wife doesn't because the weapons a) aren't removable and b) are generally pointing in a menacing manner. So, until they make an empty-handed Boba Fett, I'm SOL.
