Now that the Max Rebo case is about to be resolved, let's get back to serious matters with one of the pleasant surprises among the minifigs of the second wave of LEGO Star Wars sets for 2013: Padme Amidala in her Episode II outfit ( Attack of the Clones ).
And LEGO didn't hold back on the feminine touches with this Natalie Portman minifigure: red (pink) lipstick, sculpted curves—LEGO went all out, not forgetting the three lacerations left by the Nexu on her back. This minifigure, which will be available this summer in set 75021 Republic Gunship, is a beautiful tribute to the character and the actress.
In fact, the more I think about it, the more I tell myself that this injury gives Episode II a little series B side ... In short, the minifigure is very correct, it may be missing some details including a belt and a Armband on Padme's right arm to be totally faithful to the outfit of the film, but it's already very good like that, especially after the two calamitous versions released in 1999 and 2011.
The visual above is a montage shamefully made by me from photos of FBTB and a capture taken on the site Massassi Order.
