One of LEGOs most popular and best selling themes seems to have some of the most minimal printing and inaccurate figures, and that theme is LEGO Star Wars. Today I show you some simple upgrades and fixes as well as photoshopping others to fix these minifigures and make them accurate.

1:05 I believe the smoother hair works in this case because he was in Carbonite and when he came out of it, his hair was definitely more smooth and stuck down to his head.

Giving R2 a third leg used to be significantly easier with the old torso piece where you could just put in a 1/2 technic pin in there directly onto the cheese slope. Now though, it kinda seems a bit too long.

@RiggedDynamo 2 жыл бұрын

Damn! I knew something was up when I tried this again recently. I remember being able to do this just fine as a kid. Now I know why it doesn't work anymore. They should honestly update the R2 torso again so that it has a single stud in the center at the top, so that he can swivel his head, and remove the axle hole on the inside, so that you can put the half pin with the stud and the white cheese slope on the bottom.

@EthanGamerPro7 2 жыл бұрын

We need that same LEGO® 4274194 - 4274 - Technic, Pin 1/2 but with a ridged axel peice to fit in the bottom hole of the R2D2! Or, yes, just the older holed body.

For R2’s third leg, you need an early version of the body. They didn’t have the axle fitters inside, just a plain peghole style. A 1/2 technic pin with stud and a cheese slope then fits perfectly.
