Minecraft Minifigs – What Could Have Been
I’ve briefly touched upon it in my review of the upcoming LEGO® Minecraft Visual Dictionary and shared the image on social media, which has proven rather popular.

This used Life Day as a backdrop for festive celebrations in a galaxy far, far away. The special was accompanied by the first retail Christmas Star Wars set, featuring a festively decorated section...
