Morph tries to build a PC

For those of you not familiar with Morph, he's the plasticine creation of the late Tony Hart whose art-focussed kids TV shows were aired in the UK in the 1980's. I thought they were great and recently I received a 'kit' as a present that allows you create your own Morph. If you have no idea who Morph is then check him out here.
Of course as soon as I made him he was up to mischief and with lots of PC bits hanging around, he soon caught the bug. I've hidden my Dremel for the time being in case he fancies and bit of modding. I dare to think how quickly a circular saw attachment can cut through plasticine, pretty quickly I'd imagine.

I came back from work to find Morph wasn't where I'd left him. In fact I couldn't find him anywhere. Eventually I noticed my PC was on and next to the side window I saw a little figure.
'Morph how the hell did you know how to turn my PC on?!?'
As it turns out he's fascinated with PC's and wanted to look at the pretty lights too. He then asked if he could build a PC with all the bits I have laying around:
'Well Morph you can have a look but I don't think you'll find much.'

Morph proceeded to look in the PC bits boxes and came back with a few things.
'I don't think a fan grill and a 1/2inch compression fitting will get you very far Morph.'
He looked a little sad at this so I said I'd get him a copy of Custom PC magazine so he can find all the bits he needs.

Now Morph, go to the Elite section where all the good hardware is listed then you can pick all the bits you need.

You'll need some money though and I'm afraid I can't help you with that (note to self, hide credit cards)...

Yeah it was Chaz, he was a git wasn't he? I thought he was quite funny though, cheeky laugh and all!
I was given a Morph kit for Christmas off my sister & her boyfriend. However, before I got chance to make my Morph - my girlfriend made him. He's sat above my PC looking all 'appy.
However, he has fallen of the shelf a few times leaving a dent in his nose.

I really like to read.Hope to learn a lot and have a nice experience here! my best regards guys!
