Day 753, Quasi-Quarantine: Tacking A Bacta Tank Extension Onto Boba's Throne Room

 

About a month ago, we walked through the iconic new Star Wars Lego set, Boba Fett's Throne Room. To extend the playability and more closely mirror "The Book of Boba," we decided to create a Bacta tank add-on (please hold your "Why is Luke wearing a giant diaper?" questions).

Our initial effort was functional, but did not evoke the rest of the build as much as we'd like.


To rectify that, we sorted through brown pieces that matched the rest of the set, making the tank area feel like a much more organic addition to the palace and throne room.


The result is an add-on that has a removable Bacta tank, a place for a sentry, and a bed for post-immersion recovery as needed. This new segment of the build can also be moved around to best complement the dizzying number of configurations.


As we eagerly await the arrival of the new "Obi-Wan" series next month, our evolving Tattooine landscape is helping to bridge the gap.

Now, about that diaper build ...
