The open casket...why?

Half of these look straight out of Bond movies.. Who knew they were actually that close!
You have never felt pain until you've trodden barefoot on an upturned lego brick..

I've shown this before, I think.  We came across this wacky ice-car-boat-thing rotting away in Barentsburg (Russian mining community on Svalbard, way up in Arctic Norway) a few years back.  If I'd been able to get the thing started and drive it home, I would have.

Peace is a lie, there's only passion.
Through passion, I gain strength.
Through strength I gain power.
Through power, I gain victory.
Through victory, my chains are broken.

That ice-car-boat thing is class Ming. A contra-rotating propeller system AND rotary cylinder engine though? Holy crap, it must have made a noise to wake the dead!
