Hobbit Lego Minifigures

These are just a few of my Hobbit Lego minifigures . They are from the movie 'The Hobbit'.  Three of them come with the Bag End set and Thorin was purchased separately on Ebay.
Their names are Thorin Oakenshield, Bilbo Baggins, Dwalin and Balin, the dwarves.  They are all mini Lego minifigures and by that I mean that they are shorter than normal Lego minifigures.  They are the same size as Yoda, from Star Wars Lego sets. (See previous Yoda post)

Thorin is the king of the dwarves and comes with a sword and a small axe.  Dwalin also comes with a sword.  Bilbo, however, comes with Sting, his elfin-made sword, and the one ring to rule them all.  Balin comes with two giant hammers, that are even bigger then he is!
These characters feature in the Tolkien books and in the recent Peter Jackson movies. They are on a quest to slay a dragon - or at least to have their own kingdom returned to them.
Thorin Oakenshield, seen above on the far left, has a rare hairpiece as does Dwalin next to him.  Bilbo comes with a regular hobbit hairpiece and looks quite like Sam in this regard, from Lord of the Rings. However, Balin, on the far right, is hairless - he is bald and has tattoos.
These are great minifigures - a real must for all Lego, Hobbit and Tolkien fans.
 
 

BACK ON TRACK

This is my super hero collection of mini figures.  I have DC and Marvel . (Spot the large minifigure in the middle!)
Here are some of the characters in my collection: Iron Man, Captain A, Batman, Hulk, Robin, Deadpool, and many more.

What I especially like about the Hulk minifigure - if you can really call him a mini-figure - is that he can hold other minifigures in his hands.  He is roughly about the same size as the Goblin King in the Hobbit Lego Collection.  It is about the size of a child's hand.  Unfortunately, there is no Bruce Banner Lego minifigure - that is something that Lego needs to think about right?
There are other big figs such as the Green Goblin,(Spiderman) Troll (Lord of the Rings), and Rancor (Star Wars).  All of these big figs can hold weapons easily in their hands without dropping them.

I haven't had time to blog for a while - apologies for that - but I am back on track now - with plenty of Lego products (not just Star Wars) to review on comment on.  Enjoy!

Clone Base

 

This is my clone base.  I made it myself.  Some of these figures came from the Clone Speeder-bike kit. Another came from one of my favourite books, Star Wars Lego Brickmaster.  The base has a cannon and also has a dungeon for battle-droids.  There is a computer terminal for the ark-trooper, where he can monitor his weapons and direct cannon shots.   I love it.

Chewbacca Lego Mini-figure

This is the famous Wookie Lego Mini-figure -  Chewbacca!  (minus one arm!).  His partner is Hans Solo and they have many adventures together. It is good to know that Chewbacca is beside you in a battle.  He has a bullet belt and bolt-firing bowcaster.  He comes in various sets including the Millennium Falcon set and the Death Star kit.  Everyone Loves Chewy, especially me!

Star Wars Lego Mobile Missile Platform

This is a Star Wars Lego Mobile Missile Platform from the Brickmaster kit.  It comes with a droid mini-figure. There is no storage for the gun, but it has a moving, large blaster cannon.  Its role is land to air combat.  I think it looks really great.

Lego Star Wars Speeder Bike

This is a Lego Star Wars Speeder Bike.  It comes as part of the Lego Brikmaster kit.  The wings are movable and there are two cannons at the front. The clone's gun is stored behind the seat, so he doesn't have to hold it when he drives.  There are a further two cannons on the wings, making this a great fighting machine.  The engines are at the back, four in all.

Republic Attack Shuttle

This is a Republic Attack Shuttle, a mini kit from the Lego Brickmaster book.  It has moving wings that can reverse so that it can get easily into attack mode.  There are two blasters at the front, and the cockpit can move up and down.  It took quite a while to build but it turned out brilliant. I think this ship is deadly!

Clone Trooper

This is my 5th Clone trooper.  He came with one of my favourite books: the Lego Brickmaster book.  Have you got one yet?  You have to!  Many of my other ships, walkers, tanks and speeder-bikes come from the same book.  It is amazing!  As you can see, his helmet is removable and he has a little blaster too.  He is cloned from Jango Fett.

Star Wars AT-RT Walker

This is the AT-RT walker is not from any Star Wars movie I have seen, but is invented by the people at Lego.  It's still very cool and great fun to make.  The clone comes with it, which is a bonus!  There is a cannon at the front.  The legs and feet move and there is storage for guns at the back.  There is an area at the back with an aerial.  There are levers and see-through glass panel at the front.  The clone's helmet is removable revealing a sort of strange face underneath.  I give this walker 10 out of 10 as it is one of my favourite all time mini-kits.  I love it!

Armoured Assault Tank

This is an Armoured Assault Tank .  No Lego figures come with this vehicle because it is part of the Lego Brickmaster Kit.  A bigger version of this set comes with a battle droid, a clone trooper and Yoda.  This smaller version is still fun to make and good to play with, especially for the price (says mum).  There are different types of Battle Droids; Super battle droids, Droidekas, Security droids, Pilot droids, Infantry droids and even Commander droids.  You can even get a blue Super Battle Droid or a dark grey version.
This vehicle was easy to make and great fun to play with.

Battle Droid

This Battle Droid comes with the Lego Star Wars Brickmaster set.  What is special about this kit is that it comes with a clone that can bend. (see photos).  Also, it can fit into Battle Droid carriers, cush as an MTT (2000) which is good for playing.

May The 4th Be With You!!

Happy International Star Wars Day!

Anakin's Y Wing Starfighter

Here is Anakin's Y Wing Starfighter.  It comes with Anakin, Ashoka and R2D2.  R2D2 pilots the starship and Ashoka covers him from behind, in case a battle droid attacks.
 Anakin is there too, at the front.  He has more guns to shoot.  There is one gun that fires from underneath the spaceship.  It has two engines at the back, and two lightsabre holdres for Anakin and Ashoka to put there weapons while they are flying.  Sometimes they get to land on surprising places.




This isn't Anakin's only spaceship - he also has an Interceptor, but I like this the most.   This took a couple of hours to build and got my dad to help me with this one.  It was a great Christmas present.  I give it 10 out of 10 - i's a great Lego Star Wars toy.

Ashoka Lego Minifigure

This is Ashoka Tano.  Ashoka has a red star fighter which you can see below.  She comes with Anakin's 'Y-Wing' Lego set.  She is Anakin's padawan (Jedi in training) so she is not yet a Jedi Knight. She comes with her own yellow light sabre with Lego, but it is green in the movie.  Ashoka has her a droid: 7751.  She is part of the Clone Wars TV shows.  She can use the force and she fight, but not as well as the trained Jedis.  If you like Star Wars in Anakin times, then you will have great fun playing with Ashoka, because she is part of his story.






    

Darth Vader Lego Minifugure

Darth Vader is the Emperor's evil apprentice.  This minifigure comes with a red light sabre and a cloth cape.  You can remove his helmet which reveals his face that is really ugly and scarred.  He has a little remote on his top.  Unlike the Yoda minifigure (see my earlier blog post) Darth Vader has big, moveable legs. He comes with the Imperial Starfighter Lego set. You can place his light sabre underneath his spaceship for storage.  He also comes with the Star Destroyer Lego set, but you can buy him on his own on Ebay for about 10 Euro!
