Life-sized star wars: The force awakens characters made out of lego

LEGO has big plans for the 2016 Toy Fair.

Life-sized plans, in fact. The LEGO Group recently commissioned three sculptures of Finn, Poe Dameron, and Captain Phasma from Star Wars: The Force Awakens. Using over 80,000 LEGO bricks, these sculptures are built to scale with the actors in the film and weigh 400 pounds collectively.




Captain Phasma is reportedly the most complex of the three, standing at 81.5 inches tall. It took the creative team 275 hours and 37,556 bricks to build the character portrayed by actress Gwendolyn Christie.

Poe Dameron and Finn were slightly less complex, each standing 67.3 in and 68.9 inches tall respectively. Each took around 200 hours to complete. These sculptures will be on display at the 2016 Toy Fair.

Progress has recently been reported on both Star Wars: Episode VIII and Episode IX. According to Disney, Episode VIII has begun filming, and Episode IX has entered production. Star Wars: Rogue One will release later this year.
