I put this together and found myself asking – WTF? (Why The Face) I had no idea what this was or why it had anything to do with Christmas or even Star Wars. A little of research led me to believe it is in fact a Mecho-chair for Nute Gunray. And that means day three is actually a gift for the day two gift. Glad he didn’t have to wait long.
The devices, generally built by Affodies Crafthouse of Pure Neimoidia, were prohibitively costly and were more of a status symbol than a mode of transportation. They featured two sickle-shaped rear legs that terminated in single-claw feet, and a pair of articulated double-clawed guidance limbs.
So things aren’t getting better in the Star Wars Lego Advent Calendar world. So far Nute Gunray is the grinch and we need a Tie-fighter, X-wing, or Millennium Falcon just to break even.
Oooooh! Thank you so much. I was trying to help my boys (ages 9 and 13) with what it was. Thanks for the research! We are now happy!
