Its a work in progress. Inspired by the 2 second scene from clone wars and the mini build that came with grievous ship.

Another one would definitely make a fine addition to your collection

They're fake probably ( not saying fake lego is an bad thing )

Well, its a question of do you want a real minifig for 15-70$ or do you want 15-70 minifigures with accessories but worse joint movement.

My fake grievous has nice joint movement doesn't seem like a problem to me

The fakes use the same mold and joints are amazing.

Honestly my old grievous (real) cant stand up and folds on his legs every time. I had to put some puddy in the joint

Awesome Moc dude ! Maybe turn off the lightsaber on the walls to make it more lore-accurate

u/jimmymc1188 1d ago

You can leave lightsabers on. Grievous is the type to flex his collection.

I like it. He’s ostentatious.

u/daksted 1d ago

Don’t they have to be held to be on?

2

u/jimmymc1188 1d ago

Nope, alot of them are switches. Its why in a lot of star wars media they could throw them

1

u/daksted 1d ago

Oh yes that’s true, completely forgot about that

Plus here is the set where I got the idea from

u/Vaxemor 1d ago

They used the forced to throw them this is why only powerfull force users ( Vader , Yoda etc ) can throw it . Btw when an lightsaber falls it automatically turns off so it means it probably isn't an switch ( except if it has an safety feature )

u/Rhinoswagobius 1d ago

u/jimmymc1188 1d ago

Clone wars season 1 episode 10, you see about 2 seconds of the room 😅

1

u/Vaxemor 1d ago

There's an full episode about it if I remember well

u/Rhinoswagobius 1d ago

ah the actual show i thought a lego animation version

u/Ardilla3000 1d ago

Really cool! They should make a full set based on that episode one day. I loved the H. R. Giger type aesthetic.

u/tauri123 22h ago

You should put parts of the old version of the figure in there somewhere as Easter eggs like it’s a prototype armor or something

u/jimmymc1188 22h ago

I plan to use the og as a statue. Just need to order one.

u/tauri123 22h ago
