LOLA AND THE POLLEN PLOT

Season 2, Episode 2: Hero Shot

 

In this episode, our challenge was to build something that could explode epically behind a stunt-hero minifigure, while keeping the figure standing. Lauren and I pulled the ladybug as our hero. In our build, Lola the Ladybug plants a pollen bomb inside a lily pad flower, and right as her froggy predator is about to eat her, she blows it to smithereens.
