The Mother of All Lego Star Wars Battles

Lego microscale enthusiast RogueBantha has been busy. For the past year, he’s been putting the finishing touches on this incredible battle scene between the Rebel Alliance and the Galactic Empire, and over the weekend he placed the last brick. The extra cool thing about this busy, incredibly detailed scene is that it’s done in 1:200 microscale. That means there’s tiny X-Wing’s making their strafing runs against tiny AT-AT’s; a bad ass monorail system; and even a massive transport ship—all captured using as few pieces as possible.

Welcome to Mustaneer! (it’s not as distant as Mustafar) Basically it’s a Rebel attack on an Imperial base and mining installation. About a year in the making, on and off, it is 75 by 125cm and all built in 1:200 scale. I’ve taken LOADS of pictures (OK, I’ve taken too many) but I’ve tried to write something interesting with each, so if you have a bit of spare time join me on a journey to a galaxy far far away….
