I have a fairly decent collection, including some of the original 1999 sets, such as the Snowspeeder, X-Wing, and Naboo starfighter. LEGO is truly more than a toy, its an art form and a way to express yourself.įor the most part, I collect LEGO Star Wars (mainly the minifigs), which is probably my favorite LEGO theme. Ever since, I have continued to build up (pun intended) my collection of bricks and to expand my knowledge of techniques and building skills. Then, miraculously, I became addicted to the LEGO brick later in my teen years.

When they fell apart, I would become frustrated attempting to put them back together and would throw them in a box in my closet. When I was younger, I would get and build small LEGO sets for my birthday, but I was never really into them. I mostly build in the themes of castle and science-fiction, but I also dabble in other genres and create occasional random MOC's (My Own Creations). My name is Nathaniel Stoner, and I am an very active LEGO builder. The body printing on these deadly soldiers is also well done and incredibly detailed! I would have preferred if they had larger blasters, but that's something I can fix when I do a MOC with these soldiers.

Thankfully, we never have a reason to see the expressions on these guys, which is the in-accurate 'Angry Clone' face. Each figure also sports an exclusive pauldron, which also add to the accuracy of these figures. Krennic also does not have a second expression, but does have some nice back printing.ĭeathtroopers (right): What can I say? These figures are fantastic (and a bit scary)! The new helmets are spot-on and super cool pieces. My only critique with this figure is that I think the hair should have been gray instead of this faded blonde color, but that's just my opinion. He also is sporting a newer cape with the softer fabric. It's fantastic to get another white Imperial uniform, which are rare both in LEGO and in universe. This is definitely another great droid figure to add to any Star Wars collection, especially with the amazing printing on him!ĭirector Krennic (center): The Director's printing is a bit more basic than the other figures in this set, but that is accurate to his movie appearance. One thing that should be noted is that the head and torso of this droid character are connected, which does not allow the head to turn. K-2SO (left): A former Imperial enforcer droid, K-2SO will be assisting the Rebels in the film, it appears, after being reprogrammed by Captain Cassian. Lastly, both figures have some unique backpacks that look very cool for the number of pieces used, and also have double-sided faces. I personally love Bodhi's face with the goggles design, which I think could also be useful in other MOC's, along with his jacket printing. That design did not make it onto the minifig, unfortunately.

In the movie trailers, Bodhi can be seen with an Imperial insignia worn on his shoulder. Pao's secondary expression, though, is phenomenal! Pao is also wearing a brand new headpiece element.īodhi Rook (right): If I am correct, Bodhi is a former Imperial cargo hauler that has defected to the Rebel Alliance. It's always great to get more printed legs, and Pao's are no exception.

The body printing is well detailed and could be used outside of the Star Wars universe for some military creations. Pao (left): Not much is known about this character as of yet, but that doesn't change how detailed this figure is with all his accessories. Each minifig is exclusive to this ship alone (at least until future sets are released), and is extremely cool! I believe the most popular characters from this set will (obviously) be the Deathtroopers - and rightfully so! Before we talk about those troopers, let's talk about the Rebels we get in this set: Let's talk about these minifigures! They are a definite draw towards this set.
