If it wasn’t clear from my past posts on Eero Okkonen, I am a huge fan of his LEGO character designs. But he’s really outdone himself with this entry into Round 1 of the 2023 Bio-Cup. Depicting a pair of traveling merchants and their packbeast, the trio immediately reminds me of the Jawas roving over the deserts of Tatooine in Star Wars. And despite their different coloration, I love the clear anatomical link between the two traders in the general shapes of their arms and legs. But nothing can beat the gaping maw of their companion, fashioned from a pair of Skirmix heads. The post Bartering in Bionicle appeared first on The Brothers Brick.

The chief of Asterix and Obelix’s little Gaulish village goes by many names. Vitalstatistix, Macroeconomix (in some US editions), and Abracourcix (as I knew him in the original French editions). But perhaps we should refer to Oliver Becker‘s excellent LEGO interpretation as Madeoutoflegobrix! The rotund chieftain and his caricatured proportions are very well done. The head especially is where this build really shines; the tiny helmet with the feathers is both accurate and adorable. And the ball joint and croissants are great respective choices for the big nose and moustache, features so integral to these indomitable Gauls!

Amazon currently has a sale on the LEGO Collectible Minifigures Series 24 6-Pack (66733) for 27% off. It is now priced at $21.99 which saves you about $8 on it. This essentially drops the price per minifigure down to $3.67 each and saves you around $1.32 for each minifigure. Of course this is a random box so if you want to gamble, there is a chance that you might get some duplicates. As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases.
