Star Wars, but without Star Wars ....

The exercise may make you smile, but the result is always amazing: LEGOstein, aka Christopher Deck, has embarked on a new series of staging with one constraint: Reproducing places and characters from the Star Wars universe but without using licensed bricks or minifigs. 

You have to know how to keep an open mind to make the link between the characters reproduced and their equivalents in the official range, but the bet is in my opinion successful. Evidenced by this slightly crazy Jabba The Hutt, this Bib - Banana - Fortuna or this larger-than-life Princess Leia ...

In the scene below from theEpisode IV: A New Hope, we find Luke, who does his business with the Jawas in the middle of a slew of droids. Finally, we find Han Solo and Greedo for the remake of a cult scene in Mos Eisley's Cantina.

Some will find the result rather mixed, for my part I must admit that I took a little time to be seduced and then I remembered having posted a post here on the work of maestro s.fujita who in 1992, 7 years before the release of the first official set in the Star Wars range, had painstakingly reproduced each episode of the Original Trilogy with the parts and minifigs available at the time.

If we put all this in perspective, I tell myself that the current work of LEGOstein is a form of tribute to this precursor that was Maestro s.fujita and we will appreciate all the more his effort of reinterpretation ...

IF you missed my ticket LEGO Star Wars Trilogy by maestro s.fujita, meet immediately on this page, you will not regret it.

Then you can check out what LEGOstein has to offer on his Brickshelf gallery. He should add new scenes to it regularly.
