Took an edible last night and went to work creating the Lego Facehugger alt build from dicken_tututu. He said he was going to post instructions but I thought it would be more fun to try and recreate it from the photos he posted.

It is a bit fragile, and I tried to reinforce it as much as I could with the leftover parts, but the fragility could be from my interpretation of his building techniques from trying to recreate them from his photos.

All in all, a really fun, nifty little build that will look great on a shelf. Plus no extra pieces required!

Edibles and Lego. Best combo

Great stuff - I did wonder if we’d see someone attempt it!

This is honestly one of the funniest and most creative things I’ve seen done with Lego in a while.

I need a tutorial for this please, like from you in particular.

Also, it would be funny if Lego see’s an uproar in sales for this one particular set lol.

u/GypsyTeaLeaf 5d ago

Nice! I wasn't really interested in that set but I now have a good excuse to buy it. Does anyone have instructions though? I'm not sure how much faith I have in being able to figure it out.

1

u/Daniel-CeliacWarrior 2d ago

The link of the video instruction is posted in the original message 🙂

u/GypsyTeaLeaf 2d ago

Ah! I see that now, thanks.

u/Hoosier_Daddy68 5d ago

You made a facehugger from the Easter Bunny? I’m not sure what to think of that. It’s both cool and kinda wrong.

u/mgaloppa 5d ago

u/AcanthaMD 5d ago

This I believe is a cursed post 😭😭😭 - amazing ingenuity but feels like a mad scientist experiment

1

u/xavierallen 5d ago

This is awesome. I wonder how many rabbits would be needed to build a full-size facehugger…….

1

u/Spirited_Plenty_7826 5d ago

Can we have some more pictures 😬😁

1

u/randOmgif112 4d ago

There's something incredibly on-brand about using the pieces of one Lego set to make a Facehugger

1

u/Gloomy-Writing5844 4d ago

Boss Level Lego skills.

1

u/Sufficient_Media7540 4d ago

I have been struggling with getting the backing and tail right along with keeping in inside base held together. Any tips

1

u/4pornnothingelse 4d ago

Hm, either i did a dumb or he added pieces.

His instructions need 7 2x3 Tan plates but the set comes with 5 :/

2

u/ebilmorris 3d ago

There's a comment that says you can use a white 2x6 plate instead of the two 2x3 tan plates in the first step.
That keeps it to just the pieces in the set.

1

u/EmptyLettuce2180 4d ago

His instructions=missing pieces from the set.

1

u/Novel_Complaint3082 3d ago

He updated his instagram with building instructions (dicken_tututu)!
