THE ZOGGO CAR So far I have decided to make a soccer car. It will have a little soccer ball that will be shot out of a launch pad inside the car. The soccer ball will be aimed for the goal net that is on top of the car. In the windows will be different colored soccer balls popping in and out of them. On the sides will be written ‘Gooooaaaal!’ and “Will the ball go in?’ I cant wait to start it! It will be an encouraging car for making goals! THE GOING, GOING, GONE! CAR The going, going, gone! car is a horse race car. It will have on the sides ‘We practiced every day! Kentucky derby here we come!’ and “Woodland sprite comes up by the rail, and oh! Wins by a nose!’ It’s action will be horse heads and tails popping out of various places. It encourages to dream big by showing if you work hard, you will be rewarded. THE SAVE THE WORLD CAR! The save the world car is a car to promote recycling. It’s action will be a world and sign on the top that turn on one side the world will be black and the sign will say” If you don't recycle! And on the other side, it will say If you do recycle! Pointing to a lovely clean world. THE BOOKS, BOOKS, BOOKS! CAR The books, books, books! car is to promote reading. It will have a book that opens and shuts on top and a sign that says” Reading is like breathing!’ And another sign that says” I breath, I read!” And there will be painted book covers on it.

The Zoggo car

I am for sure making The Zoggo car. I have decided to also make a tennis ball look like a small soccer ball. It will turn around on top next to the goal net. On one side it will be plain, the other will say, SOCCER CHAMPION! The balls in the windows will not pop out but just sit there.

The reel to bring the soccer ball back in after it's shot out to the goal

Today I got half of my motion down. It’s getting really frustrating though. I don’t have a clue how the ball will be launched! I got it to reel back in, but not to launch! It is getting annoying! Scratch the Idea of the world soccer ball spinning on top. Time is running low! I will have the soccer ball just go in the net over and over again. Maybe I will get an idea when I’m not working. Like, I’ll Be playing soccer and the idea will just come to me. I cant wait till Its done!

Today I got the whole thing programed. I just need to fit it all into the car! Maybe the Legos should lose some weight so they fit better! I’m going to soon start coloring the stuff and working on little details like visual effect, and colors. This program will repeat itself 3 times.

Here is the goalie

I finished! I finished I finished I finished! Oh how good it is to say those words! I can’t wait until next week when I’ll add the one final touch! I’m going to make it play music while it shoots the ball in three times! The goalie is forever leaping to stop the ball from entering the goal. He is in such a position that you cannot tell whether he stopped the ball or it rolled right in. It’s up to you to decide whether or not the ball made a goal, or the goalie stopped it!

My finished car!

I have put the final touch onto the art car. Now it plays music after the ball has launched. I have also put the string on it so that it can be pulled while it is doing the procedure. On the back it has a sign that says who it’s dedicated to. You can watch a movie of my finished car.

This is the back with the dedicated sign.
