Star Wars Recreated With Action Figures #SciFiSunday
There’s been a lot of Star Wars stuff lately — May the 4th Be With You — and here’s the topper. Star Wars recreated exclusively through action figures. Here’s more at Imgur:
A long time ago I started a project with some friends online to re-create the entire original Star Wars film, almost frame by frame (sometimes with some artistic liberties), with toy photography. We completed probably about 90% of the film. But because we would often have to wait for certain toys to be released (or located online) or diorama’s to be built (or bought), as well as new photoshop skills learned, before we could continue, work slowed and eventually stopped. We never stopped taking photo’s, we just all slowly moved on from the project.

Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, TinyGO, or even use the Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
Have an amazing project to share? The Electronics Show and Tell is every Wednesday at 7pm ET! To join, head over to YouTube and check out the show’s live chat – we’ll post the link there.
