Hello! I am new to Toys n bricks, I just made an account so I could take part in the two recent Lego Star Wars Challenges!
My entry for the Battle Pack Challenge is an "Emplacement Weapon, Heavy Blaster (E-Web) Team". It has 76 pieces plus four minifigs with their weapons. The team of three stormtroopers, overseen by an Imperial officer (whose torso would hopefully be different in an actual set, because right now he's a naval Commodore ;p,) transport and operate the E-Web. I would've used a hovertank commander minifig, but as those are only in one set, which I believe is retired, I couldn't get one.
(Note: The guns of the tank, which is supposed to be a slightly modified hovertank in battle pack/microfighter size, are made of actual Lego pieces. They are the little sticks that come with Lego RC train tracks, and I used them as a replacement for 1 x 4 antenna. In an actual Lego set, they would probably be 4L bars with lightsaber handles on them. I would've done this, bringing the parts count to 78, but didn't have the pieces ;_😉
Here is a rear view showing the E-Web attached to the tank (by a 1 x 4 brick with 4 studs on the side)
The E-Web being set up (with the Imperial officer overseeing setup, his face is perfect for this scene ;D)
...And the E-Web heavy repeating blaster fully set up, ready to blast some rebel scum! (or a Mandalorian!)
I hope you like my Battle Pack challenge entry! if not, well, that's understandable i guess... 😐
Anyways, I personally like the idea a lot, although Lego probably wouldn't ever make a Battle Pack like this. But if they did, it probably would be a lot of fun, and a great play set (especially if they gave the minifigs and maybe E-Web or tank some stud-shooters, which I don't personally like but they keep adding to Battle Packs anyway)
Thanks!
