 | | Strange difference in my 2 'Max Villano' minifigs (Adventurers)
|

Hi all, (Sorry for cross post - not sure if this is an adventurers or a minifig question) I have a strange question... I was looking through my collection of minifigs last night and noticed a strange difference between the 2 'Max Villano' minifigs I (...)

(...) I'll echo that. I was sincerely touched, as were quite a few of my collegues. Thanks for highlighting this post again Hendo. Jonathan NYCNY (23 years ago, 20-Dec-01, to lugnet.build.minifigs)

(...) You most certainly have. I think your image is beautiful, with the original in the background and the sculpture in front. I'm going back to highlight your first post... :) -H. (23 years ago, 20-Dec-01, to lugnet.build.minifigs)

There were two things preventing me from going "over the top": lack of parts; lack of talent ;) One of the great things about Lego is that it allows both for superb details and for gentle simplicity. My greatest concern when I was creating the (...) (23 years ago, 4-Dec-01, to lugnet.build.minifigs)

(...) I hope to have better pictures available by the end of the week. (Here's hoping). Even with the existing picture you can see how simple it would be to create your own version. I had to go searching on BrickBay to get the hats and the torsos (...) (23 years ago, 4-Dec-01, to lugnet.build.minifigs)

(...) You've done incredible work with the amount of detail. Since you're going from the photograph, which places equal detail on the firemen, I don't think I could complain with that. This tragedy places a great strain upon all of us. -- James J. (...) (23 years ago, 1-Dec-01, to lugnet.build.minifigs)

I was expecting this to be "over the top." It wasn't. It is simple and powerful - just like the image. You did a very beautiful job, and in my humble opinion, picked the perfect mini-figure combination. I can't explain it either, but this moved me (...)

(...) Not wrong at all, Alan. That picture spoke to me as well - I think it probably has to pretty much everyone. There's something about your creation that I can't describe.. it's so simple but hits the essence of the photograph perfectly. The (...) (23 years ago, 1-Dec-01, to lugnet.build.minifigs)

Hi folks. I guess it wouldn't be too much of a stretch to say that ever since I saw the photo it has haunted me. Here is my attempt at dealing with it. (URL) apologies that it's so big (>400 kB).

Hagrid is indeed the same size as the Jack Stoned minifigs and is better made to boot. The Jack Stoned crud has no removable parts to help redeem them in any way, shape, or form. -Dave (23 years ago, 17-Nov-01, to lugnet.build.minifigs)

If so could you please point me to some images or let me know what kind of products you've used and had success with I'd appreciate it. After (...) (23 years ago, 17-Nov-01, to lugnet.build.minifigs)

I was looking at these Jack Stone figures in a display the other day and was surprised to find that they were much smaller than I imagined. I have not purchased any of these Jack Stone sets yet nor do I intend to but I was wondering are the hat's (...) (23 years ago, 17-Nov-01, to lugnet.build.minifigs)

Looking inside the body it looks like the arms can't be removed. It (...) (23 years ago, 12-Nov-01, to lugnet.build.minifigs, lugnet.fabuland)

(...) Pop, pop... Aha, cool! Something else to try - a Fabuland head looks decent on Hagrid's body. Also, Hagrid's head and hair looks decent on a Fabuland body. Ok, looks like I'll be in the market for a few more Fabuland figs. Frank (23 years ago, 12-Nov-01, to lugnet.build.minifigs, lugnet.fabuland)

The beige rabbit head came off easily without even popping the neck from the body, so all parts are in perfect condition and the figure can be (...)

(...) I know one of the Fabuland heads you sacrificed was already busted, did you find some more busted ones, or did you sacrifice some of your more "floppy" heads? I'm really considering doing a few of these mods. Frank (23 years ago, 11-Nov-01, to lugnet.build.minifigs, lugnet.fabuland)
