In the realm of Lego creations, Titans Creations has recently garnered acclaim for their astonishing 10,000-piece model of the Millennium Falcon from Star Wars. This detailed replica, measuring an impressive 3.5 feet in length, surpasses the dimensions of any official Lego set and is perfectly scaled for the beloved minifigures. It got me thinking about other legendary figures from the ’80s that would make fantastic Lego sets. Here are five iconic characters that deserve a spot in the Lego universe:
1. Daniel LaRusso’s Sensei
Imagine Mr. Miyagi from Karate Kid, striking that memorable pose while demonstrating the crane kick on a wooden post, with Daniel looking on in awe. The essence of “wax on, wax off” captured in brick form would surely be a hit.
2. The Romantic Rebel
Think of Lloyd Dobler from Say Anything, standing outside Diane Court’s house, triumphantly holding a boom box above his head to serenade her. Of course, his trench coat would be a must-have accessory. Wouldn’t it be great if this Lego version could somehow play Peter Gabriel’s “In Your Eyes”?
3. The Time Traveler
While Lego once offered a DeLorean set from Back to the Future, the addition of a minifigure of Marty McFly in his classic puffer vest, alongside Doc Brown in his lab coat, would elevate this nostalgic collection.
4. The Queen of Pop
Madonna, in her iconic lace bustier from the 1984 “Like a Virgin” music video, would be another fitting tribute. A Lego version with a mechanical twist to mimic her legendary dance moves would be a fun addition to any collection.
5. The School Skipper
Finally, a Lego Ferris Bueller, complete with a microphone as he performs “Danke Schoen” and “Twist and Shout” on a parade float, would be a celebration of carefree youth. The backdrop of the Windy City would add to the charm, reminding us all that “life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.”
