Star Wars Space Invaders

While it took several months to obtain the rarer minifigs he needed to create the LEGO Star Wars Space Invaders plaque that now hangs on his wall, Chris McVeigh aka Powerpig finally finished his awesome mash-up creation. Mixing retro gaming with classic sci-fi action, the Star Wars Space Invaders combo smooshes together everything I love about being a geek.

I really love the small touches, like the two rebellion gunners in the lower left corner, posing as the “extra lives.” Besides this project, Powerbig has a wide collection of awesome LEGO and geek photography over on his Flickr. Highly recommended.
