Return of the Jedi in LEGO

Recommended Posts

Dear Lego Star Wars Fans,

after Building "A New Hope" in LEGO between Feb. 2019 - March 2020 and "Empire Strikes Back" in LEGO between May 2020 - August 2021, I started this November with "Return of the Jedi" in LEGO. 

In this thread I will share all updates related to this project in the next couple of month. Please already see below the first parts.

Hope you enjoy it :)

My only gripe is that 18.1 could have been the infamous "Force kick" with Boba flying haplessly in the background :D
Anyway,wonderful work, as always

Fabulous work on this latest batch from Return of the Jedi. All your scenes are highly detailed and must have taken ages to create. The work on the two scenes from Home One alone is incredible.

These Home One pictures are without a doubt some of my favourite shots of yours so far! It's great watching the story unfold in your mocs, there aren't many long-term big scale projects like this. I'm really looking forward to seeing the Battle of Endor unfold!

I have been watching this work since codyaner recreated <New hope>. He has been making works of the highest standard since then. This is too great for one individual to do! I want to applaud his enthusiasm.

Hello everyone,

I am really sorry for the slow progress on the project in the last couple of weeks & month but unlike for "A New Hope" and "Empire Strikes Back" this project covers a bit more time and resources (LEGO Parts) as I am aiming to build bigger layouts for the individual scenes.

Currently I am in the planning process for multiple Endor scenes. I already ordered a quite big amount of parts for trees, AT-STs and general landscaping. So brace yourselves, soon some cool Endor scenes will come :)

In the meantime I share with you my 2x latest scenes.

Kind regards
Codyaner

Never being quite satisfied with Mon Mothmas original head piece designed by LEGO and searching for an alternative I was surprised to find one here. Or not so much surprised as codianer pays attention to accuracy in every detail. It's always fund an source of ideas to watch your dioramas and they bring the film scenes to life again in my mind.

Could you tell which headpiece you used for Mon Mothma?

kind regards

Thanks for those kind words :) 
The head piece is from admiral holdo from Episode 8. It is quite expensive on bricklink https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=3626cpb1971&amp;name=Minifigure, Head Dual Sided Female Brown Eyebrows, Light Orange Lips and Cheek Lines, Smile / Open Mouth Pattern (SW Vice Admiral Holdo) - Hollow Stud&amp;category=[Minifigure, Head]#T=P&amp;C=90

@codianer: thanks for the headpiece info. Now there is another reason for me to look after the admiral holdo minifigure ;-)
