Blobfest 2020: The Home Edition

For the last several years I have been attending Blobfest — a local festival celebrating the movie the Blob at the theater shown in the classic film. Each year I set up my LEGO MOCs of the Colonial Theatre featuring a minifigure run out, the Downingtown Diner and some other MOCs featuring bits from the movie including a brick built Blob.

This year due to COVID-19 they are having a stay at home edition of Blobfest. So I created a new digital MOC of the festival’s street fair using my theatre MOC and two LEGO modular sets (the brick bank and the new bookshop).

You can see the street vendors (food, collectibles, t-shirts), a car show, retro roadmaps camper, and a minifgure run out from the theatre and a smaller brick blob (can’t not have him).

Super excited that the folks at the Colonial and Blobfest liked this display enough to share it on Facebook and Instagram.

Part of the fun is that they are including us at home. Having an at home run out, costume contest, Miss Blobfest, and Blob Across America. I did a quick stop motion video with my sigfig for that.
