So it turns out that in 2001, Lego released a Women's Soccer Team set. It has a half-dozen minifigures in the USA women's national team colors of the time plus stickers for jersey numbers. And Janni found a set at the local used book-n-toy store.

Which means, after applying #9 and a brunette ponytail (most of the hairs are ponytails) we now have a Mia Hamm Lego.

*fanboy geek-out moment*

Eaglet, of course, has no idea and is far more focused on playing with the striker-and-goalie setup. We've been watching all the game highlights together in the evenings, though, and their soccer day-camp has been showing games on TV during lunch -- as they ought to, at a soccer camp.

(In what sense is a small plastic soccer ball that comes with a Lego set but has no connector features still a Lego soccer ball?)
