Upscaled Chief from the legendary Rock Raiders series
BlockTalk Summary
The LEGO Rock Raiders theme, a favorite for some, has inspired a fan to create an upscaled Chief minifigure. This custom build pays homage to the classic LEGO series, bringing a beloved character to life in a larger-than-life scale.
The creator, /u/robert_vii, built the large Chief minifigure, addressing the challenge of finding an affordable original. The face of the minifigure was crafted using stickers cut with a Cricut machine. Additionally, a 3D-printed crystal was included, with the builder expressing a desire to eventually print one in trans neon green resin.
This custom LEGO creation highlights the enduring appeal of the Rock Raiders theme and the creativity of LEGO fans. It demonstrates how enthusiasts can overcome limitations and celebrate their favorite themes through unique builds.
If you're inspired to create your own custom LEGO figures, you might find a LEGO building kit helpful for sourcing bricks and parts.
Few people would probably consider Rock Raiders as their favorite lego series, but it sure is mine. I even had the old PC game too! I have all the sets still but having never been able to find an affordable Chief minifigure, I opted to build a large one. The face is from stickers cut out by a cricut. 3d printed a crystal for him, but would love to print one in trans neon green resin someday. submitted by /u/robert_vii [link] [comments]
