Bookshelf Battle

September 3, 2015September 2, 2015Mei-Mei

A couple weeks ago I was challenged by a certain guardian of a magical bookshelf to put my Star Wars toys to use in creating my own bookshelf battles.

An Episode I battle between the Sith Infiltrator and the Gungan bongo sub.

Now for the LEGOs!

Luke fights off an scout trooper on a speeder bike. — Luke fights off a scout trooper on a speeder bike.

Because Star Wars LEGOs are expensive, when I was little I would get the generic spaceship-type LEGO sets and pretend they were from Star Wars. So the guy on the white snowmobile thing is clearly a snow trooper on Hoth, and the ship Luke is flying is a [__]-wing spaceship. There were like 12 different weird looking starfighters in the movies; who’s to say this wasn’t one of them? We’ll call it a Q-wing or something, ok?

Generic sci-fi LEGOs pressed into service.

Luke in the cockpit.

Back in Ep IV, Luke and Obi-Wan are coming to get in the action in the landspeeder.

Stay tuned for future battles 🙂

I don’t know anyone else who has Darth Maul’s Sith Inflator 3-D puzzle! When I saw that, it brought back all these memories of when I was putting it together but also working on a science project at the same time which involved melting ice cubes. It took a long time, hence why I was also building the 3D puzzle. I have no idea where mine is now so I’m glad yours is having a happy life on the shelf.

  It actually took me a minute to remember what it was! I think those 3D puzzles were actually my sister’s lol. I have the Falcon and a Star Destroyer, too, but they’re not put together.

    Omg me too! I did end up putting together the Falcon but never did the Star destroyer. Those were so hard. We’re twins with our 3D puzzles.

  Thank you, glad you enjoyed it!
  
  Nope, no Force Friday for me. I’m not a collector, plus I don’t want any unintentional movie spoilers.

  If you go to my post, there should be a “reblog” button down where the like button is, I think? Thanks for the link, though!

What? You haven’t put the Falcon together in the three days that you’ve had it?

  But if I do the Falcon, I’ll have to do the Star Destroyer, too, and that’s just too much work. 😉
