The long wait is over (for some people)

The long-awaited package from the Lego factory has finally arrived, and many of the people and NBA players in Lego Land are quite happy. Predrag Stojakovic was able to get rid of the white firefighter's helmet that he was forced to wear-- now he has a black captain's hat that he wears backwards. (See photo above)

The first person that Predrag Stojakovic shows is Kevin Garnett. Kevin Garnett tells him that he looks cool. (Photo below)

Not everyone is feeling quite so excited, however. Allen Iverson still has not heard anything about a contract for next year, and he is starting to get a little worried. Instead of relaxing and enjoying his off-season, Allen Iverson has been spending a lot of time on the computer checking to see if there are any new developments. (See photos above and below) So far, there has not been much to report.

Everyone is excited about what is coming in the mail

For several days all the regular people and NBA players in Lego Land have been very excited about an interesting news item-- a shipment of pieces straight from the Lego factory will be arriving soon. There are many rumors spreading throughout Lego Land about what may be coming in the shipment -- new heads, hair, hats, helmets, legs, life jackets, flippers, beards, and/or weapons. Everyone has an opinion about what will and should be coming.

Three more NBA players have arrived

In another exciting development, three more NBA players have arrived in Lego Land -- Gary Payton (in the pith helmet), Dirk Nowitzki (the only NBA player who comes with separate hair), and Vince Carter (in the red construction worker helmet). (See photo above)

Inside the box the players brought with them, there was an unexpected surprise-- Dirk Nowitzki came with two, rather than one, identical hair pieces. Not surprisingly, however, Gary Payton has called dibs on the extra hair piece. Do not be shocked if you see him wearing it sometimes.
