He's AT-AT fodder, AKA a Hoth Rebel Trooper



Perhaps they need three pairs of goggles to protect them from the sun bouncing off the snow?

At least that version has a gun! Mine just throws sunglasses!! Useless weapon!

Goggles can be dangerous - you can take someones eye out with a good throw!

(Except the Empire's forces all had protective helmets on, but that's a minor thing to worry about if all you have is a spare pair goggles!)

Day Twelve
HURRAY!
FINALLY!!
After twelve days patiently waiting, and hoping, I FINALLY got my R2D2, today!!! \o/yeay\o/

Now, obviously, they've had to make a few tweaks, what with it being such tiny Lego pieces, but i think you can still make him out.

And he's ever so cute

Sorry to burst your bubble, but you do know that that's not actually R2D2, don't you? It's a GNK (Gonk) Power Droid.

Day Fourteen

JarJar's getting his Rave on, tonight, as he received two fancy Glow Sticks to party with!!

He also got two new attachments for his Dyson, so he can clean up after the party. That's handy!

*cough* by the way, although I typed Day Twelve, yesterday, nobody seems to have noticed that it was actually Day Thirteen yesterday! *cough*

Poor JarJar - relegated to cleaning up people's gaffs after parties. Best thing for him really, but would you trust him in your house not to break it all to pieces? He's likely to end up with his tongue wrapped around the Dyson's motor!

Early Lego, this morning, as I'm off all the bloody way up to Salford just to get a simple CT scan, which I know, for a fact, they could've done in Bolton. FFS. Never mind, off we go!

Behind Door Fifteen lurked an evil looking KKK member! *shudder*

Yay. A SnowTrooper. I always liked them (but always despised the KKK).

Lucas supposedly based pretty much all of the stormtroopers' gear on Nazi uniforms and helmets - so it's definitely not inspired by the KKK, despite obvious similarities.

It's the Sixteenth, today, and what's behind the door? The fiddliest fucker you ever had to put together, featuring lots of one-blocks, and in most cases half-feckin-triangular-blocks, all designed to fling out from under your thumb as you try to press the bits and pieces together! Bastard!!!!

I think it's a super modern two-handled two-person Super-Vax. JarJar's going to have to make friends with the KKK guy, if he wants to use this one!

I think that's supposed to be Amidala's Naboo Royal starship, but I'm not 100% sure.

JarJar's cleanup quest continues, as he gets a lovely new DustBuster, for Day Seventeen.
Large surface area, stumpy handle, definitely a DustBuster!

I'd guess it's Obi-Wan's car from the Zam Wesell chase scene in Clones.

God that does look shit doesn't it!

Is it actually green Jay? I think it might be a Landspeeder?

Apparently it's called a Flash Speeder and was seen on Naboo.

"The Flash speeder is a sleek, lightweight repulsorlift vehicle used by Naboo's volunteer security force for patrolling the tranquil streets of their peaceful cities. The open-air canopy seats two soldiers. Turret-mounted on the rear spoiler is a blaster cannon."

Well, there you go. At least I got that it was a speeder of some sort

Nothing imaginative to say about the contents behind Door Eighteen. His suit reminds me of Han Solo, but I have only vague memories of ever bothering to watch Star Wars, so feel free to shout at me for being shit at it!
Much like our Singlasses salesman from the other day, this fellow also came with three pairs of glasses. One of which is attached to his hat. The other two aren't pictured, as they're too thin to be held in his little Lego hands, and I couldn't think of anything imaginative to do with them.

Today's man is just that. A man. Some bloke with a big hat.
Dull, Lego, dull!!!!

He's just a rebel trooper



Or basically cannon fodder for a magnifying glass in bright sunlight.

Looks kind of like the assassin droid that went after Amidala, except upside-down.

Whoopsy! Forgot to post today's, here! Damnit, I have WAY too many daily posts going on, lately!!!

Day na-na-na-na-Nineteen Nineteen!!

I really haven't the foggiest what this thing is.
It has a joystick, so maybe it's an arcade cabinet?
In the Instagram caption, I suggested it may be a ride on lawnmower, but then I realised it can't possibly be that. The box comes with an Ice landscape! No need for a lawnmower, there! Must, instead, be one of those ice smoothing machines that you see them use on skating rinks.
Yeah, that'll be it.

It's a Neimoidian shuttle



They're certainly getting more and more obscure... :/
