Yes I am an adult and yes I still design different things out of Lego using their digital designer. When I saw the WSC I figured I would have a pretty good chance at building it. It is 1,286 pieces. Thanks to Ayo S for the pictures. They greatly helped since I don't live in Manhattan. Yes you could build this exact model, however it would probably run anywhere from $100-$150 to buy all the pieces needed. Its roughly 18" Long and the tallest part is about 4" tall. Thanks for checking it out.

Worth mentioning again, but whoever was in charge of the cats and tv's on this project is a complete and boss and stud.

Texas Christian University coach Gary Patterson has been hired as Kansas State's 34th football coach, multiple sources have confirmed to GoPowercat.com.  Patterson replaces Ron Prince, who was fired Wednesday. - Tim Fitzgerald   Nov, 7, 2008

I agree, not enough powercats
In boy scouts my scoutmaster always had this saying that went like "if you think you have enough powercats, go back into the woods, and get 10x that amount."

They should find those fundraiser kids that spray paint powercats in front of houses and have them go to town on WSC.  More powercats and helping a young buck grow his entrepreneurial spirit.  What could be more appropriate for LHC Bill Snyder FAMILY stadium?

a powercat with a purple and white stocking cap thing and scarf and they move him around and we all play where's waldo w/ the powercat and try to point him out between all the other two thousand powercats already on there. they move him once a week or something. would be a fun game for townies and i could take a picture and post here if out of towners wanted to play along.

I have a good townie friend that also is a hoarder and when I was showing him pics of the BSFS expansion over the weekend he was very happy with the amount of cats.  Kept saying things like, "Wow, there sure are a lot of cats" and "Man, they didn't forget the cats".  All in all he seemed very pleased.

my scout leader used to send us all on a "Find The Thing With Too Many Powercats Hunt". joke was on us though, there isn't such thing.

I actually had elite insidery information, that the biggest powercat and the "kansas state university" on the other side are all wired up with LEDs behind them, and they ran conduit up to both signs, but the university elected to not spend the final $1500 to finish wiring them up, truly K-State0

Not sure what $1500 could have achieved.  Number is pretty low, even after conduit and run and wire pulled.  Now, if you meant $15,000, you'd be a lot closer (but still a bit low for how much would have to be installed to do it right.

I won't quite go for the K-State0 label on this one just yet for being cheap at the end (in light of how much money has been spent for other details), but maybe still for a lack of foresight and not planning on it in the first place (which still seems the most likely).

East side back to being the poors.   Dirth of TV's, Powercats and general amenities relative to the West side is amazing.   Once the new 'rooms were put on the upper level, East Siders only had a year living elite amenities status.    Now, they're way behind.

that's just how it's always going to be in ol' mhk dax. west is best. east is least. rumors that if you are in the woodrow wilson school disctrict and want to buy west side tickets they just laugh and you and sell you some east side ones. nothing's ever going to change. the people in power just won't let it.

Worth mentioning again, but whoever was in charge of the cats and tv's on this project is a complete and boss and stud.



His basic construction process seems to basically be "more".

I can picture him desperately trying to hang more cats and tv's while his colleagues drag him away, shaking their heads.

$1500 was the number i got straight from the horse's mouth, said the only wire needed to be ran was from the conduit to the LED power hook-up.
