I made some trades with a local LEGO seller and acquired this Darth Maul with android body minifigure.
I'm no big fan of the Star Wars prequels, but if they had a bright point (that they were sure to snuff out quickly) it was Darth Maul. The concept that Darth Maul was not eliminated when Obi Wan Kenobi sliced him in two - that he in fact had some android legs built and now stomps around on said robot legs with a vengance-on for those damned Jedi - that's pretty cool.
He came to me with dual light sabers. Not sure why one is black, I did get him second-hand, so this may be canon and it may be just a random addition tot he figure. Feel free to enlighten me in the comments.
Not only do I now own a Darth Maul minifigure, but more importantly I now own a pair of LEGO android legs. Expect these things to show up on unsuspecting minifigures in the future!
He is pretty neat looking with those legs.
ReplyDeleteYeah he snags that saber in the Clone Wars series. They call it a darksaber, who'd have thunk it?
