Wonderland Girls

When you merge Lego and kitbashing, there is no better place to do that than in Wonderland.

 

 

Here comes OG Alice and the Queen of Hearts with a great novelty: Custom faces!

Recently Lego has been doubling down on brick-built character with various degrees of success. One of the most interesting ideas, at least for me, is the 76780 Wednesday Addams Figure released on late 2024. This style, which I call “Lego doll”, featured specialized printed faces, a concept that stuck with me.

 

Later, I would discover Studworks’ figurines, based on Kotobukiya’s range of figurine kits. I fell in love with his idea of 2x2 custom printed faces.

 

My initial idea was to replicate his sticker approach, but then an idea sparked in my brain: why not go a step further and give them actual faces from a Kotobukiya’s kit?

 

So here comes the results of an experiment merging Lego and kitbashing. I hope it does not get too controversial among purists. I also discovered from early tests that the dividing line between cuteness and uncanniness is very thin, and not everybody will like them.

 

I really enjoyed it, and I do not discard making some more. Faceless characters have always been a big “no” for me, so this opened a full new category of character mocs to explore.
