Well! One more to fan the fire: (URL) one disappointing factor is that there's no 1x4 tan technic brick-- I used grey. Whee! stuart (...) (22 years ago, 23-Dec-02, to lugnet.starwars)

  Re: SW MiniBust-- Imperial Stormtrooper
 
This is really neat. Not only did you make an amazing creation (uncanny likeness at such a small scale; well done sir!), but you have potentially created a fad. I can see this one booming off like some others. Cool. -Chris Also, gotta agree with Gil (...) (22 years ago, 23-Dec-02, to lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: SW MiniBust-- Imperial Stormtrooper
 
(...) That's a great idea! Although there's already a precedent for (non-Lego) minibusts to stand on their own-- they're a popular item featuring comic book characters, for instance. Still, it wouldn't be too hard to make a "mecha" or "Bionicle" (...) (22 years ago, 22-Dec-02, to lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: SW MiniBust-- Imperial Stormtrooper
 
(...) Me too! The trooper's guts are not extraordinarily complicated, but I can imagine that different heads would necessitate different platforms-- I'm very curious to see what people could devise with a 4 stud "baseline" for width. Thanks for (...) (22 years ago, 22-Dec-02, to lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: SW MiniBust-- Imperial Stormtrooper
 
This looks excellent....it's like that 2x3 wing nose was made for it. This would be great to see produced - packaged much like the Bionicle masks. And interesting marketing twist would be to sell the pieces for the head, yet the instructions (...) (22 years ago, 22-Dec-02, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) Stuart, I gotta agree with Jon, minibusts are a great idea. And what a way to start! This looks fantastic. I hope to see more. John (22 years ago, 22-Dec-02, to lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: Jabba the Hutt's hands
 
(...) Nope. They're the same arms as the Hagrid figure from the Harry Potter line (if I'm not mistaken). -Greg (22 years ago, 22-Dec-02, to lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: Jabba the Hutt's hands
 
Hi If they are the same hands as the Adventurer^s Yeti arms, they connect to the body with a technic pin. Felix (22 years ago, 21-Dec-02, to lugnet.starwars)
 
  Trademark infringement by LEGO and Lucasfilm?
 
Hi, everyone. I found 2003 SW sets at the Wal-Mart in Livonia, MI, and the assortment included Jabba's palace. Well, I looked on the side, where it showed the figures, and saw that one was named "Gonk Droid™". Now, if memory serves, this term was (...)

  Re: SW MiniBust-- Imperial Stormtrooper
 
(...) Thanks for the thoughts, Jon. I agree wholeheartedly that TLG would probably do a great job themseves. The (upcoming) SW mini ships indicate a new acceptance of SNOT from them...

  SW MiniBust-- Imperial Stormtrooper
 
I got to thinking on a lazy Saturday... 1)I think my favourite part of mecha building is creating the head and 2)I think TLG missed the boat somewhat on their Technic SW figs and 3) I had a lot of small white pieces.... So I made this. I'd like to (...) (22 years ago, 21-Dec-02, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.build, lugnet.space, lugnet.announce.moc) ! 
 
  Re: 10030 Imperial Star Destroyer shipping now...
 
Just an update: I actually did get mine on December 12th even though I didn't order until late november and the estimated shipping date was "by december 31st". Lego customer service is good indeed and they've almost always shipped things out earlier (...) (22 years ago, 21-Dec-02, to lugnet.starwars)

Very nice! I have browsed your site several time previous and was very impressed. I also see that your photography on this model looks alot more professional too.
