Legotavian Federal Republic {Legacy Faction}

As Legotavian forces were embroiled in combat with the Immortals, traditional hover-based methods of fast transit became expensive as Crystal Reserves were channeled towards ever-grander projects. The Federal Army thus developed the JW-1 "Jeorse" LUV, a light, leg-based staff car for patrol and logistics work. These vehicles and the sound of their mechanical galloping have become a common feature of the Republic's peripheral worlds, and represent the Republic's abhorrent value of 'Compromise', this time in the form of cost vs cool hover car. Truly, these minifigs in the Republic have been twisted by some dark force.



For Minifigs we see a classic Legotavian formation popularized during the Robot War period, with 1 Legotavian Sergeant, 2 Legotavian Troopers, and 1 Legotavian Friend Trooper. The heads are all distinct, in an effort to give the squad that classic Legotavian DEI Stare.



The JW-1, or 'Anno Hrose' as its known to some more mocking Legotavian forces, is a quadrupedal staff car with an attached machineblaster and space for either cargo or a VIP. It is the successor to the JS-16, a speeder design that oversaw patrols during the Interim Period

You may have seen this build before, It was originally intended for this competition but I didn't get it ready in time. Thus, I'm submitting it now, hope that's not a problem!

Hmmm... I'm torn on this one.

Theme: 7 They're coherent, just looks a little odd? I mean, it works?

Substance: 7 I love that you used Friends figures in this faction - not a huge fan of the minidolls, but maybe if they saw more use like this... I have an issue with the walker though. Now, I like walker vehicles a lot, but that looks like it needs a little more articulation in the legs to keep from bucking people out. But the thing is, that walker does look the right size to fit in a battlepack...

Story: 7 Decent background for the faction, and for the vehicle.

Photos: 5 They're not BAD, but compared to the other entries they're lacking. Marble tabletop with paper backdrop versus fully Lego built table and backdrop or neutral grey/white spaces...

Theme: 7 I've always appreciated the Legotavian aesthetic in terms of its uniqueness (in more way than one).

Substance: 8 Solid build with good parts usage. Figures are fine with a good excuse for the diversity.

Story: 8 I like the background you've provided with some fun insights into Legotavia's lore.

Photography: 6 Clean, well-lit and focused. But the background and quality are slightly worse than other entries.
