Details: Among adult LEGO builders, rainbow-colored creations are often mocked. "Rainbow warrior" is a term used to deride kid's creations that don't have any sense of color - never mind that only an adult's hobby budget can handle buying the part/color combination you need to make something look just right. Occasionally, though, someone will build something rainbow-colored that is actually quite great, and wouldn't work if it had that more "professional" sheen we're used to seeing. Sometimes, the bright multi-colored monsters have their revenge...

This also counts as the best-yet use of the collectible minifigures Mime, from the current series.
This is Saturday's model of the day
