I love Yoga, I love LEGO... introducing.. YEGO!!
I know, that's an easy pun...

I have practiced Yoga occasionally since my teens... I do some breathing exercises and a few poses whenever my body tells me I need it.
A few years ago, the thought of building a Yoga themed creation crossed my mind. What about a series of characters practicing Yoga? It is an interesting challenge, Lego does not bend very well and you have to get creative very quickly if you want to reproduce faithfully the human body anatomy.
I started with one - the Lotus (Padmasana), of course... and then added a couple more. I left these on a shelf for a few months, and every now and then I would get the itch to make a new one.
After a while, I was looking at 9 different poses and it occurred to me that this concept would make a great LEGO set! Imagine a set that would serve as a "starter kit" allowing to build 3 of these... setting up the stage for your imagination to take over and create infinite variations. The techniques can be simple or overly complicated (like any AFOL would, naturally).
Pretty cool, right? But you know what, I have not even thouched on the best part... This is stuff real, it's not limited to the LEGO world, you can actually do this.. so, build it and then use it as a medium to introduce your friends and loved ones to Yoga.
They'll thank you for it.

TL;DR - What are you waiting for?? Go vote !
