The Human Tool
I’ve been kinda obsessed with brick separators lately, so I wanted to make a superhero for Miniland with that theme in mind. We’re always careful about referencing actual superheroes from pop culture in Miniland so we don’t get in licensing trouble, but I was thinking we should just make up our own. His name refers to the fact that Bricklink classifies the brick separator as a “human tool,” but it also fits with superhero names like The Human Torch.
He uses the giant separators on his arms as weapons and shields, fighting crime and separating the guilty from the innocent. He also has one on his head as a helmet/mask, and some smaller ones on his back that are throwing separators, kinda like batarangs. I’m really happy with some of the dramatic action poses he can do.
I’ve had several people tell me he looks very anime inspired, like a character from My Hero Academia or Chainsaw Man, and that’s probably where I was subconsciously taking influence from.
