Description Custom Lego sculpture I built as a tribute to commemorate Carrie Fisher (Princess Leia) and Kenny Baker (R2-D2), both of whom passed away in 2016.

Update: I added the alternate name for this creation: "Did you miss me?". As a tribute to both whom passed away, Kenny Baker passed away some months before Carrie Fisher, and this is Leia's quote to R2-D2.

This would be totally awesome just as a Lego Star Wars build, but the lovely tribute sentiment takes it way beyond that = fantastic work!

And welcome to Lego Star Wars Club... I really hope you enjoy the group!

Funny how it's expressionless... yet the the way it's setup makes me see a smile on her face.

I have just finished instructions for R2-D2 and currently working on Leia. Leia instructions will be free and R2-D2 instructions will cost a small fee. They will both be available in a few days through Rebrickable.com. I will post another reply here when the web page is live. I have more images available on my Flickr page for different poses each can do. Link to my Flickr album is here:Β www.flickr.com/photos/miro78/a…

You're welcome. Thank you for making it.

Its not often that a MOC warms my heart. Usually it's like "ooo cool!" But this was so cute its bringing me joy even as I look at it again. You really knocked it out of the park with this one.

Excellent work.
Carrie will be in the next Star Wars film; it's in post production now.

Thank you. Princess Leia and R2-D2 are my 2 favorite Star Wars characters.

SW episode VIII will be heart-wrenching to watch. I am curious how the script needs to be changed for episode IX and if her passing requires any changes in episode VIII as well.

Looking4Work In reply to flybyart [2017-01-07 05:35:54 +0000 UTC]

I'd rather see them recast the role than change things too much; this trilogy seemed to me more focused on her. (Having said that, we both know I'll be wrong.)

Thank you. I did a few other poses, but this one is my favorite one as well.
