Legos as Props

By Icosiel, in Game Masters

I drove up to my father's house last weekend and brought back two crates of old Legos that I used to play with as a kid. I'd say two "boxes," but that really doesn't do the volume of these containers justice.

I had so many Star Wars Legos as a kid. Cloud Cars, all assortment of speeders, A-Wings, B-Wings, X-Wings, Y-Wings, Lambda- class shuttles, turbolasers, the Tantive IV... it's an absolute treasure trove. I'm stoked to implement these in my EotE game. Probably gonna scavenge a few of these and make a Wayfarer.

intriguing idea...

not to mention an excuse to play with legos again!

You need an excuse to play with Legos?

I simply do and when i get asked why i answer: You can never be too old to have fun.

Sadly i have no ship that goes well with my Executor.

Luckily i still got an X-Wing, two TIE/LN, one TIE/DEF and a Z-95.

Not to mention an AT-TE and several droids to stomp.

Fun times.

I have a lot in the way of Star Wars Lego minifigs thanks to Bricklink. I'll post a few pictures of what I can do with them for both EotE and AoR when I get back to the house. :)

As promised. I had my daughter do these this evening.

All 6 pregenerated characters from Edge of the Empire:

And all 6 pregenerated characters from Age of Rebellion:

She looked at both the picture as well as the kit list for each character and she did a fairly decent job, I think.

Very cool.

back in my day all we had were guys in monochome colored with a logo on the chest and helmets.

and we had as much detail as a 8 bit game because things were so blocky
