It is incredible how smooth it seems to work. Maybe you can enlightened us with a "behind the scenes" video?

How cute, bravo!

Creepy...but well executed!

Who's that Leprechaun guy? Anyway, I really like the surgeon, very useful minifig...

Well, that looks awful, is it the same in every fisherman?

Did you noticed that the new "Friends" minifigures are also taller than the regular ones? ( and they still use the same hair pieces and same hands... ) So taller minifigures in the same scale works for LEGO too...

As I said, I 'm gonna make a LEGO comic. I have done one before, now I want to make something better. Don't think that I am new to LEGOs, trying to do weird new things... LEGO minifigures, andoubtedly have a scalling problem and that's OK for most of the time. I noticed that in a LEGO COMIC, while buildings can be made to seem real, the minifigures look more like dolls than real people. I discovered that by making the legs a bit longer this way, the minifigures seemed a lot more real. They can sit, bend, run, hold things in a much better way. It may not be easier to make them pose but the pose will definatelly look more reallistic. At least for me...

Hi! Do you mean that the legs are too long? I have decided to cut the axle on the "shoes" in order to be more short and it really seems better. Sorry Lego purists... The most cool thing I think is that now minifigures are able to hold long weapons without looking akward. More pics (not very good ones) here Interesting idea...but the hands seem so not-LEGO for my taste...any other ideas anyone? Thanks for sharing lakuda!

I had seen this picture in brothers-brick some months before and I really wanted to found a way for the LEGO mini figure's legs to be more realistic. I tried different ideas yesterday, I can say that much more things could be done If I wanted to cut some parts but I didn't. So, that's what I came up with finally. Please tell me if you have any better idea. Also I have to add that I want to use these minifigures in a comic, so playability was not my first priority, nice posing options was what I wanted most. Folding the legs was essential too. Both on the front and the back of the minifigure. Here are the parts I used And here an other funny idea, lego girl in high heels!!! So what do you think? I hope I am not reinventing the wheel here...Sorry if my English are not very good, I am Greek.

One of my favorite Lego sets. It had given as a X-mas gift to my sister many years before, we had such a great fun with it I remember...
