LEGO Star Wars AT-RT

AT-RT + Minifigs

Box Art

Not too long ago Olive went to 

Toys R Us to buy a new LEGO Friends set.  

After a long day of school, I wanted something fun to do - 

so I decided to go with them.

 I wanted to get the new BARC speeder set,

 but it wasn't there so I decided to get the AT-RT.

 I didn't regret it!

The set includes: Yoda, a Clone Trooper, a Commando Droid Captain and a Sniper Droid.

The set costs an OK $19.99.

The AT-RT itself is awesome!  It has a rotating canon, moveable legs and a shielded seat for the clone trooper!

It has 222 pieces and is pretty easy to build.

Overall it is an awesome set.  If you're looking for 

something good to buy I would recommend the AT-RT!

Airborne Trooper

Action!!!

I can't believe it!  It took forever to finally get it right.
Ladies and gentlemen behold...
 MY AIRBORNE TROOPER!!!

I tried to make one at least 3 times,
and each time I tried -
I failed!
On my first try it turned out all black.
The next time it came out all white.
And once it looked like a death trooper (zombie stormtrooper)!

Today I recycled one mess-up and turned it into the real thing!  I used an old airborne trooper body I had already made and re-sharpied it!
Now I have the real thing!

The Pink Trooper

A few times in the past I've heard requests for a pink trooper.  After looking at some old posts I decided maybe I should finally make a post for it (if I haven't done it already!)!  This particular clone I made a long time ago.  I made the helmet a long time ago.  But about a month or so ago I made him (or her) a body.  I'm hoping I might get some good comments! (pleez!)

REAL Clone Sergeant

 Anti-Trooper

 

I bet you remember my old clone sergeant post. Well, now I got the official minifig!!!

It came in a new LEGO set with two clones and two destroyer droids!

Currently my favorite clones are anti-troopers.  Anti-troopers are clones who fight stormtroopers.

Not long ago I built an anti-trooper MOC (my own creation)!

It's pretty easy to build an anti-trooper.  All you have to do is give a 

green clone a jetpack and a blaster rifle.

Right now it's my favorite LEGO clone!

Finally..... 2

OK, I know its been the 4th post about this, stuff but I couldn't resist doing it!  As you can see, this is a republic trooper set + it looks AWESOME!!!  I can't say it's cooler than the last set, but I can easily say the minifigs are way cooler!  The republic troopers are a total longshot from my original (as in way more accurate)!  The sith troopers are really cool as well!  I'm really excited about this Lego set!  I can't wait to get it!

Finally......

Remember one of my posts about republic troopers? And another post where I wrote about how I found out that LEGO was making a republic trooper set?  Well I have to say I just got one!!!!!!!!!  Here's how it happened...  I was on vacation in Houston, and as usual we went to the toy store.  I wanted to get a toy MechaGodzilla but I couldn't find anything good enough. After a while of searching Momma said she would give me some extra money to help me get the Lego Striker Class Starfighter!!!!!!!!  The set includes Satile Shan (a Jedi), a little droid and the republic trooper.  Although the minifigs are really cool - the set is cool as well!  It looks really similar to an X-wing and its wing's can fold in!  I like everything, except the fact that the republic trooper doesn't have a helmet!

UPDATE!!! Around christmas time, LEGO will be making a republic trooper set that comes with helmets!!!  i can't wait!

Oragami!

I just finished reading the Origami Yoda books.  I thought they were awesome!  A while ago Avery introduced me to the books (thanks, avery!!!).  After reading Darth Paper Strikes Back I remembered the instructions on how to make an Origami lightsaber.  I decided I wanted to make a lot of them!   I ended up making tons of them - including a double bladed lightsaber!  So I made a million and I ended up making Olive an Origami Yoda with the instructions provided with the book and I realized how easy it was!!!  Since I started the origami, I've been obsessed (and Olive, too) with it!  The Origami characters I've made include: Yoda, Chewbacca, a clone trooper, R2-D2, Darth Vader and General Grevous!  Last night I made about 7 Yodas that I could give away to people and my new plan is to give everyone I know an Origami Yoda (MWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!)!  

YAAAAAAY!!!

Do you remember my republic trooper post?   Well if you do - i guess my wish came true!   Heres how it happened.........   So I was reading Smashing Bricks (this lego blog) and I saw this one post with a few pics including this one above (I think so!).   I nearly had a heart attack!  The post said they'll have this set in summer along with this republic trooper!   I cant Wait!                                                    

                                               P.S, I hope he has a helmet!

The Geonosian (Gee - oh - no - son) Arena

pyramid-like structure

 the zip line

This is the geonosian arena!!!

On the top there are lots of minifigs battling, which includes clones, jedi and battle droids.

On the pyramid-ish structure you can see Mace Windu sneaking up on Jango Fett!!!  

Under that there is a clone pilot going down a zip line!!!

On the bottom there is a skeleton underneath an ice cream parlor.

Plus there is a rock monster ordering ice cream at the bar.

(comments please!!!)   

a.r.c. starfighter

Just recently we went to our gramma's house!

We had a fun time and we went to the toy store!

I bought a cool lego ship!

It included 4 figs, 4 blasters, 4 seats, 6 wings and the coolest space ship ever!!!!!!!! 

Republic Troopers

Right now I'm obsessed with republic troopers! I think they are the coolest! WARNING! Just so you know they are not clone troopers! If you want to build one here is how:  you can draw blue or orange markings on them and use a scout trooper's helmet. You can either file off the visor or save it, but commanders or other special ranks don't need helmets. I'm thinking of building a battle station on the planet ord mantel.

ARC commander

This is my ARC Commander.   I designed him after a clone on ebay.   I made a few changes to him since

 I made him (O.K. maybe mom did a little more than me).

ARF trooper

This is my ARF trooper.   I built him out of a clone trooper.   I used a scout trooper's helmet and a back pack.

scout trooper from hoth

This is my lego scout trooper from Hoth.   I equipped him with a back pack and a scout trooper's helmet.

Clone Sargent

This is my clone sargent.   Before he was a clone trooper.  Then he was a clone sargent.   I added blue arms.   Then he was finished.   It is easy to make one.   I hope you like the before (top) and after (bottom) pictures.

shock trooper commander

this is my clone shock trooper commander.  first he was a shock trooper.  then i made a little bit of changes to it.  i drilled into the clone's helmet so i could attach the visor to the helmet.  i also got red arms from a different lego body.  then i was finished.

it's one of my best clone commanders.  hope you like before (bottom) and after (top) pictures for this one.  

clone commando

this is my clone commando. i filed off the helmet's middle ridge with a fingernail file. then i added a cool gun and a backpack. then it was finished. it's one of my best clones!

Galactic Marine

 this is my galactic marine. at first it was a snow trooper, then it was a galactic marine. i colored him maroon. i got black hands and gray legs. i colored the cape orange. then i was finished.

First Post Ever!!!

in this space i will be writing about my lego collection. i collect clones + i make custom ones. the first time i made a custom clone, i didn't make any more for a little while. then, i started to do it more often.
i use sharpie markers, finger nail files, finger nail polish remover and sometimes a drill to make my clones. it takes a little while to make one.

if you are going to use a fingernail file it will take a little more time. if you are going to use finger nail polish remover, it might not always work! if you are going to use a sharpie marker, it will not come off (it's a permanent marker!). the fingernail polish remover may remove the marker if you are doing it right. the drill is used to make a hole so that you can attach a visor to the clone's helmet if you drill in the right spot.

i hope you like it. i'm just getting started.
