MOC: Monster 4

[legitimatealex]

Ever since I bought Monster 4 I wanted to make it minifigure size. I knew it would be fun to do but I put it off for quite some time until now. For comparison, the actual gameboard is posted above. I hope you all enjoy this. The images can be found here: Legitimatealex's Flickr

For those of you not familiar with Monster 4, the rules are quite simple. The goal of the game is to get four of your monsters in a row. Skeletons count for both sides. The board is split up into four quadrants, 2 light gray and 2 dark gray, each on the opposite side. An example is this:

D L

L D

There are 6 different possibilities for the dice outcome. Light Gray: Place a figure on a light gray spot. Dark Gray: Place a figure on a dark gray spot. White: Place a skeleton anywhere on the board. Dark Gray/Light Gray: Place a figure on either a dark gray or light gray. Multicolored: Place a minifigure anywhere on the board, even if someone's piece is there. The last one is Black: Place the spider in a quadrant. Every piece is scared off of their spots in that quadrant. The game continues like this until somebody places all four of their monsters in a row.

EDIT: I wasn't quite sure where to post this so I assumed that the 'Other' forum would be the correct choice.

This is awesome! Now we can play with minifigs instead of microfigs

Nicely done, legitimatealex, this is very well built and true to the feeling of the original board game. I like how you've made all the different graves/monuments unique, it adds a nice touch of variety and interest to the MOC. Now you need a few suitable minfigures so you can the play the game on it!

If you visit my Flickr you'll find those figs there

Or, for convenience.

Very nice 'hyping' of this set, legitimatealex, and one of the best LEGO graveyards I've seen.

You also did a cool job with the minifig factions

Thank you. The trolls were easy to do since the torsos had been included in other sets but with the werewolves I had to get a little creative. Eventually I plan on doing the devil and the pumpkin, although I'm not sure how exactly either will work out at the moment.
