Isaac and I got a very unique opportunity through InnovaLUG, to build a series of Nutcrackers based off of the promotional Nutcracker set to aid in The LEGO Group’s advertising of the promotion. You can see that video on their Facebook page here. They needed 18 unique outfits for Nutcrackers built within a few weeks, and we jumped at the chance to do some building for the LEGO group.
This chef was pretty straight-forward to design, although I did have a bit of difficulty with the hat at first. After a few different tries, I realized that the new wedge tiles, combined with a 4×4 round brick and a 3×3 dish, made for quite a nice toque.
