Mixels: Instructions Optional

I'm the first to admit, I brag too much about Everett & Emory. Well, I'm afraid I'm gonna do it again.  :) Why? Because they're awesome! And creative. And QUITE resourceful. 

About six months ago Ori (their godmother), bought them each, their first Lego Mixel* . 

Emory's 1st Mixel was Slumbo (from series 2): 


Everett's first Mixel was Lunk (series 2):


*LEGO® Mixels are funny, creative creatures made up of the basic building blocks of LEGO matter: Fire, Rock, Electricity and more. The Mixels live in tribes spread across a vast world and love to mix and combine. By using the special cubits they will be able to mix into new characters with hilarious and surprising results. NIXELS are swarming, colorless creatures of deconstruction. Nixels tear apart everything in their path – including the mixed up Mixels.


Since then, Mixels have been what they save their money for, or request for birthdays or Christmas.   Building and "Maxing" tribes has been the "go to" activity during free time at home. They are obsessed, to say the least.  (Thanks Ori) :)

So, what do two little boys do when they are not able to buy series 1 Mixels, anymore? 

                                                    Ev & Em create their own!
                           These without instruction books (and not from a kit)....


(Top- Boys' creation; Bottom- actual Mixels kits)

Pretty fabulous, right?  :)  Reasons like this, is why I give myself permission to brag. 

P.S. Can't wait to tell them I found online instructions, for ALL of the Mixels, today (even Series 1). 

HA!
