I think top center is cookie “Monster”.

Well this does not look like any Nativity scene I’ve ever seen (with all due respect to our deeply held beliefs).

Here is the list–pretty much all movies–that I feel has some representative characters from: League of Extraordinary Gentlemen (LOEG), Monsters vs Aliens, X-Men, Firefly, Dr. Who, and a few zombie movies…including Shaun of the Dead. Mind you these are hunches.

Gingerbread Girl with green + + eyes… My guesses are either she is Dr. Who’s side kick, Shaun’s girlfriend, Polly (from a zombie movie) being chased, or possibly one of the heroines from the X-men.

Gingerbread Guy with green eyes and frown… I keep thinking Wolverine due to the three, blue spiky things at the hands.

Dark Gingerbread Guy with blue eyes and red outline… Either I’m thinking this is the Invisible Man from LOEG, or possibly one of the heroes (Ving Rhames) who is helping Polly in one of the zombie movies.

I could write a few more guesses, but they are all along these lines, based on the above movies.

I can just hear the snickers and subtle shaking of heads when onlookers see you decorating these little gingerbread folk. …Course, that’s part of the charm.

There’s an Avatar, Papa Dragon (from Avatar), a zombie, a Northwest Airlines pilot, and the rest are just run of the mill gingerbread men.

I saw the zombie, but I thought (wrongly so) you were going for some group thing. I would have never figured out the Avatar ones or the NW pilot. Glad you all had fun making them, decorating, and of course eating them! Enjoy.
