A little flashback, we are in 1992 and the LEGO Star Wars range does not yet exist. It will not be marketed until 1999.
Long before any AFOL considered a launch of this line, a MOCeur made every fan of LEGO and the Star Wars saga's dream come true: He replicated every episode of the Original Trilogy as a sequel to shots showing key scenes from each film.
In total, he will have spent 155 weeks putting these three films in bricks and images while respecting the original story board as closely as possible.
In the end, each episode is divided into 60 photos on which appear machines, characters, reproductions of places, landscapes, scenes that have become mythical, etc. The photos have not been retouched and this MOCeur has often had to prove ingenuity to reproduce the most varied environments using sometimes unexpected materials that I let you discover.
If you have the patience to browse through these Star Wars " photo novels ", you will discover some creations which today may make you smile but which, placed in the context of the time when there was almost no reference in the field of Star Wars MOCs, take on another dimension.
Of course the Millennium Falcon or The Imperial Star Destroyer are light years away from what we know today in terms of official sets or MOCs, but the set still has a precursor side to what has become later the LEGO Star Wars range.
It is the same for the minifigs and if you take the time to observe the images, you will smile like me at the ingenuity of this MOCeur.
Head over to this page and let yourself be carried away by this recreation of the Original Trilogy. It won't make you feel younger, but it will undoubtedly remind you of the time when you were discovering all the possibilities that LEGO offered on your bedroom rug.
