We’re ready for our closeup
We had ~40 lego people, but then the best and the bears went over to the Goodwill store to look for things to make into halloween costumes. They didn't find any halloween costumes there, but they found a big bag of lego pieces, which they brought home and discovered that it contained 46 complete lego people and 11 lego people who'd lost hands, arms, or legs.
(At christmas time they're going to get another 18 lego people, because we've got a couple of Lego advent calendars waiting for the first of December to roll around, and each of them has nine people including Santa Lego. And then we will have enough lego people to conquer the world, or at least the tiny subset of it that contains the Big Yellow House.
