ResIpsaLoquitur Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 (edited) Edit: If you're new to this thread--start dropping pictures of your custom Micro Managers in here! I was a little bored last night and dumped the bricks on the floor. Here's a quickie Micro Manager I put together (since I still don't have any TLM sets, and with my budget, I likely won't anytime soon). Is it Movie accurate? I don't know. I carefully looked at every Micro Manager in each movie set and noticed that they're all different. They all have some features in common: they're black and box shaped with red "eyes," but the sky's the limit after that. So I figure I can't go wrong as long as I stick with those parameters. I did inadvertently add a play feature. I don't have many SNOT pieces, so the side panels are loosely held by the red 1 x 2 pieces and they fall off with only a little pressure. However, I'm justifying them as "breakaway" panels so the Micro Manager can be defeated. Here's Gail jackhammering off the panels to set Lincoln loose. I hope you enjoy my lone Micro Manager! If anybody else wants to customize a MM, feel free to post here (or your own thread if you prefer). Edited January 11, 2014 by ResIpsaLoquitur Quote
WaysofSorting Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 Hey - yeah, I like the idea of a Custom MM Thread. Need to dig my way to the black plates bin... Quote
TheLazyChicken Posted January 8, 2014 Posted January 8, 2014 This is a micro-mananger I built a month ago for a moc I posted. Quote
ResIpsaLoquitur Posted January 8, 2014 Author Posted January 8, 2014 This is a micro-mananger I built a month ago for a moc I posted. Cute! I wish I had some of those flexy-pieces you used for the arms, as that is the part that the "real" MMs are using. Quote
cmg Posted January 9, 2014 Posted January 9, 2014 Did you see the Monthly Mini Model Build of this "character" that's happening in February? Look at the stores.lego.com page for the US, and there's an image of in under Store News. I really like the models in this thread - enjoy an "official" version. Quote

Yep, I've mentioned it in my review of this month's mini-build. I am so there. And my LDD version: https://www.flickr.c...ayer/585382a54d Yes! We need more Micro Managers, people! Quote
TheLazyChicken Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 Yes! We need more Micro Managers, people! Kudos! We need more micro-managers! Quote
Captain Settle Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 Well there's not much micro about that one. Still, it's a great MOC and I like the details like the antenna. The arms are a bit small though. This thread was a great idea. I like seeing how people can be inventive with quite a boring "character". I'll try and make my own Micro-Manager, or at least mod an official one. Quote
Sir Brickalot Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 (edited) More Micro Managers, you say? snip snip snipetty snip You're right... That is micro... Edited January 10, 2014 by Sir Brickalot Quote
TheRedGuy Posted January 11, 2014 Posted January 11, 2014 You're right... That is micro... Yes, very micro. Anyways, glad to see that I'm not the only person that likes the Micro Managers. Quote
TheLazyChicken Posted January 11, 2014 Posted January 11, 2014 (edited) Yes, very micro. Anyways, glad to see that I'm not the only person that likes the Micro Managers. Yeah, I also like them and I want to see more! I have even turned my avatar into micro-manager duck! If anyone has all the micromanagers from all the sets could someone please take a pic of all of them together. Thanks. Edited January 11, 2014 by TheLazyChicken Quote
Infernum Posted January 11, 2014 Posted January 11, 2014 Cool thread! I might get around to building one eventually. Love the Mega-manager ThatRedGuy! Quote
