Behind the Scenes

Today’s behind the scenes look will be a little different, focussing on my Luke as a child MOC.

For those who may not be familiar, MOC – My Own Creation, is the commonly used acronym for custom fan-made LEGO creations. There are highly active MOC communities, with an incredible array of instructions and full sets available for sale online.

There are also a number of companies offering custom printed bespoke minifigures, but I enjoy “frankesteining” characters together using existing LEGO parts.

Today’s example is a young Luke Skywalker, assembled from the following minifigures:

• Hair and Torso:
  • from sw0778 Luke Skywalker (Tatooine, White Legs. Stern/Smile Face Print) in the 75153 Luke’s Landspeeder set
• Head:
  • from hp248 Ron Weasley (Black Torso Gryffindor Robe) in the 75928 Diagon Alley set
• Hips and Medium Legs:
  • at the time of writing, only available from st001 Eleven in the 75810 Stranger Things set
