Lego Star Wars MOC: Janga

In case you are wondering, it's JANGA, not Jango. It is not a typo. Anyway, Janga is Marco Fett's apprentice. Here's a picture of him:


And, his lightsaber is double-sided, too, except that I sold the blades to someone at the moment, so I'll have to get more.

Story
Just like Marco Fett, Janga is born on the planet of Tattoine. He was only six months old when his parents got kidnapped by Jabba the Hutt, so a person called Mobazza adopted him. At that time Mobazza was already 80 years old.

When Janga was 6, Mobazza was already 86 years old, and he was also dying, due to a fatal disease. But right at that moment Marco Fett was searching for an apprentice, and at the moment he also went into Mobazza's house. When he saw Mobazza, Mobazza said, "The boy is yours..." After his statement, Mobazza died. Marco Fett was about to walk towards to Janga when he pushed him away into a wall with the Force. Marco Fett felt that the Force was unusually strong within him, and he decided to adopt him. But it took quite a while before Marco Fett could get hold of Janga.

Ever since, Marco Fett trained Janga to be a fierce fighter, even till today, and, for your information, Marco Fett is 20 years older than Janga.

So that is the story of Janga.

Hope you enjoyed my post!

Lego Star Wars MOC: The M.F. Ship (Mini-build)

So here's the M.F. Speeder, Marco Fett's ship (mini-build)


Here's the underside:


Well, I've not much to say about this MOC, though. It is made out of 16 pieces and it just took me a few minutes to just build this.

Lego Star Wars MOC: R2-M1

Remember how I promised you guys that there would be more Marco Fett stuff to come? Well, now, I present to you, R2-M1!


Here's a look at his back:


This Astromech Droid was actually built from R2-Q5 (If I remember the name correctly). I recolored the orange parts into red and did some edits to the design. So there is it: R2-M1!

NEXT POST: MARCO FETT'S SHIP, THE M.F. SPEEDER (MINI-BUILD)

P.S. This is only Marco Fett's Astromech Droid. I still have his apprentice's droid to make.

Lego MOC: The Origins of Masters


The picture says... (^ Means "Master Of")
Master Mee          ^ Master Window
Master Window    ^ Jack Sparrow and Commander Cody
Jack Sparrow        ^ Zombie Janga
Commander Cody ^ Tim and Rex

Stay tuned for more posts!

Lego Star Wars MOC: The Alliance

The Alliance is a force that is going against Marco Fett for all these years. The society was formed when Marco Fett started building factories in Tattoine. The Alliance consists of:


Picture Information: (Left to Right, Front Row)  Rex, King Scotts, Jack Sparrow, Master Window
                                                    (Back Row) Zombie Janga, Sailor, Tim, Commander Cody

The head of the society is Master Window:


He might be a zombie, but he believes in justice and never turns to the dark side.

The Master who trained Master Window was Master Mee, but he already passed away when one of Marco Fett's soldiers killed him. (That's why Master Window went against Marco Fett.)


I'm sure that when you first read the picture information, and you saw King Scotts, you might be wondering, "King Scotts?! What does he have to do with Marco Fett?" Well, for your information, Marco Fett wiped out Western Food Island, so King Scotts wanted to have his revenge, and that's why he joined the Alliance.

King Scotts, King of Western Food Island

You might also see that there are some Lion Knights. Well, I put them partof the Alliance as well because the Lion Knights were once part of Western Food Island as well. (P.S. The three Lion Knights are all brothers.)


You might also spot Jack Sparrow in the very first picture. Well, he's in the Alliance because... well... I also don't know why! I guess I didn't know what to do with the Jack Sparrow minifigure, so I put him into the Alliance.


The Alliance only has one vehicle, and that is a Speeder Bike, but the Alliance "upgraded" the Speeder Bike a little...


Plus. the only person who knows how to operate the Speeder Bike is Jack Sparrow, so the Speeder Bike is pratically his:


So that's all about the Alliance. I hope you liked this post and stay tuned for more!

Lego Star Wars MOC:Silver ARF Trooper

Now here's a look at my new creation:


Yep, believe it or not, it is a SILVER ARF Trooper, with his very own SILVER gun. Some of you might be asking, "How did you repaint the ARF Trooper?" Well, my answer: I used a silver marker.

But note that not all of the silver markers works. You will have to use the marker I use:


Here's the back view of my marker:


So if you want to repaint some of your Lego pieces to silver, use this marker. I do not recommend paint because that would be more expensive than the marker. So my suggestion is to use markers. But if you are an adult you may consider using the paint because 1) You can afford it and; 2) It produces better results, compared to the marker.

So here's my MOC and stay tuned for more!

Lego Magnet vs Lego Keychain

Many of you guys out there must be wondering - both Lego Magnets and Lego Keychain are a great way to get rare/ unique minifigures, but which one should I buy?

First, let's take a look at Lego Keychains:

PROS: Cheap and easy to get rare/ unique minifigures.

CONS: In order to turn the keychain into a minifigure, you will need a lot of strength and a toolbox full of different types of pliers. Plus, your minifigure's hair/ helmet has a hole on the top of it. Minifigure legs cannot be removed from the body, either.

Next, Lego Magnets:

PROS: You buy three minifigure magnets at once, not just one, like the keychain. "Transformation" of Lego Magnets to Lego Minifigure is also very easy, and does not require much fancy/ complicated tools.

CONS: The process of turning a minifigure magnet into a minifigure requires hot/ warm water (as stated by thebrickblogger.com), and you may burn yourself. The "transformation" of Lego Magnet to minifigures is not a confirm-work process. The first time I tried the method, one of my minifigures' legs broke apart, but luckily I have a replacement leg for it.

It's really up to you to decide which one you want to buy, but for me, I would prefer Lego Magnets. Please don't let my preference convince you to buy Lego Magnets instead of Lego Keychains. It is really actually up to you to choose which one you want to buy. I'm just stating the Pros and Cons of both Lego Keychains and Lego Magnets.

So I hoped you liked this post and stay tune for more posts!

Lego Star Wars Keychain

Once again, using thebrickblogger.com's method, I freed my Lego Keychain from its chain!
When my minifigure was with the chain, it looked like this:


But after my keychain had his "surgery", he was just like a normal minifigure!


One disadvantage of "transforming" a Lego Keychain to a minifigure, though, is that it will have a hole on the minifigure's hat/ hair.


Once again, I really recommend you go check out thebrickblogger.com. That website really has some cool Lego tricks and tips!

Lego Star Wars Magnet

Hello, fans, and today I will be talking about Lego Magnets. You see, in the past, buying Lego Magnets was a good and easy way to get rare/ unique minifigures, but, now, the good times are over - Lego Magnets' minifigures are no longer removable from their magnets.

But don't worry! thebrickbloger.com has found a way to remove the minifigures from their magnets! In the meantime...

Yesterday, I brought a set of Lego Magnet, consisting of:


But, of course, they were stuck onto their magnets, like this:


So using thebrickblogger.com's method of removing the minifigures from their magnet, the end result was: 


Yep, minifigures separated from their magnets. (But the legs still can't be removed from the minifigure)
 thebrickblogger.com's method was neat and easy, and I suggest you check him out!

Stay tuned for more Lego stuff on both my blog and thebrickblogger.com! See you again soon!
