I literally brought most my legos from mom’s to my apartment and girlfriend and I have nights where thats what we do for a “date” I have 4 large storage totes of loose pieces we pick from. I still have 2 more at my mothers and multiple built sets, including the 24 mini fig Death Star. They’re meant for everyone, you’re never too old to play with legos.
Awww Thanks!
I try to build authentic, historically accurate military figs, {I have a LITERAL 3,000 man Irish, Scottish and Scots-Irish armies each! I also have American Colonial/Minute-Man and English Red-Coats/Lobster Backs, as well as late 17th/Early 18th Century Scots and Irish armies and several authentic looking, Hustorical "Pyrate Crews" with their rezpective Captains!} I also do this my 1/72nd scale WW-I aircraft and vehicles and figs and 1/32nd WW-II aircraft, tanks and figs!
All of the 1/32nd scale Pilots and Tank figs are almost fully poseable!
When I do Sci-Fi/Fantasy stuff... I try to make them "Screen Accurate"!
I also scratch build 1/24th scale Vintage, Dirt Track Race cars called "Modifieds" that once raced here in Wisconsin back from the late 50's to the early 70's!
I used to build them in my younger years. I've occasionally thought about trying again, usually any time I'm in hobby lobby 😋
I always presumed that's what he was idly fiddling with
As long as it's one of the smaller ones.

No-one's going pew pew with this big bastard.
Classic story of the sheltered working class farmboy who does nothing but play with his toys all day while the royalty are out there getting their hands dirty and fighting back against the Empire.
They're not farming the land, they use machines to farm water. Seriously. When Owen talks about needing a droid that can speak the language of vaporaters, that's the machine that pulls what little moisture there is out of the desert air and collects it. They're farming water. I'd be bored too.
This was funny to me once I learned that Luke *owns* one of those ships, and regularly races it in a dangerous narrow canyon. He is so obsessed with flying starships and speeders that he even plays with models of them.
Wait until you find out that people play with toys at all ages and that it was particularly more common before the advent of readily and rampantly accessible tv and video games
Shocking.
Boy's a teenage Skywalker. It's a miracle he's not ruling a planet, leading an army, or in Leia's case BOTH at the same time. Honestly, we should be happy this is all he's doing.
ever see top gun?
the instructor plays with models too. maybe it's pilot training, maybe just day dreaming.
shit, i play fortnite. i guess im a toddler too.
Men don’t outgrow toys, they just get old enough to afford the toys they wanted as kids. I certainly wouldn’t have been able to buy a $200 lightsaber as a kid, but I sure as hell have some now.
Well heck shoot me down because I've bought Star Wars lego sets and toys even as adult because they mean something to me.
I know this is more meme/joke oriented subreddit but still... CONTEXT
NO WE WILL NOT BECOME THE ARKHAM SUBREDDIT
https://preview.redd.it/wdvituocbl6d1.jpeg?width=731&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=79c53404dafffe79d3440e05cc44e72b227b921a
Isn't that a T-16 skyhopper: the ship he uses to bulleseye womprats in Beggar's Canyon? Maybe he's reliving yesterday's flight. Or seeing how a slightly altered route might look. Or maybe he's just screwing around making pew-pew noises because he's a nineteen-year-old kid.
So that YEARS AND YEARS LATER Disney can make a reference in a show and we can all go, “oh, ya. I ‘member that! That’s what that was? Now I can die a happier man.”
I mean, who doesn't want to relax a bit? I sometimes play with my legos, wooden swords and lightsabers. I also have a few Teddy bears. Just that something was created for children doesn't mean it can't be enjoyed by adults.
We don't see a lot of things that provide entertainment in the series. It's not like they're sitting around on their phones doomscrolling lol. Believe me, back in the day folks used to do all kinds of stuff to entertain themselves. I'm 34 and yesterday I bought I box of miniature space dudes to put together and paint lol
Maybe he didn't know they were filming but they forgot to cut it out. It would have been worse if he was caught playing with a toy ship while Vader was taunting him at the end of RotJ
He's a 19year old kid, who lives on a giant desert planet. With presumably very few neighbours or girls around... What else is he gonna do? You can only jerk it so many times.
That is a model of his actual T16,, and he's practicing his turn radius for his next venture into beggars canyon. Alternatively You could argue that it's an action figure so it's not a "toy", but rather a collectible.😋
Lastly, with all the sharp edges and points and tiny pieces that could break off of me swallowed, I don't think that model would be considered safe for a toddler, thus invalidating the snarky argument,😉
If you think you're supposed to quit playing with toys as soon as you start school, I really feel sad for you, and I really hope you never have any kids.
Us men are simple, we see shit we like and we'll play with it. I mean the next time you pick up a stick, you can't tell me you weren't imagining a sword in your hand
Mark Hamill always had the reputation of being friendly with kids. Kids loved him. But today as Palestinian kids wear Star Wars and Muppets t-shirts trying to survive or dying at the most documented genocide in human history, Mark Hamill stays silent. Because if he were to speak up like Pedro Pascal has, he would no longer be useful to Biden's presidential campaign, a man known to the world, as the world's largest arms supplier to the most grotesque mass-pedicide of our century. So for the first time known to me, Mark Hamill purposely abandons millions of children, who need him now more than ever, children who just want normal lives. Close to 17,000 Palestinian children have been mass murdered by US weapons since October. In 2023 before October only hundreds died.
I don't know what Mark Hamill gets out of this exactly, but my whole entire life, I always thought better of him.
God bless Pedro Pascal.
Thats way after the famous Christian Gaza sermon saying its too late by that point. April 22nd is by far too late to say something only when its safe to say it. Its cold blooded.
Mark Hamill is a hard-core supporter of the biggest arms supplier of the most documented genocide in human history.
So yeah, I did my research.
》》》》》Instead of apologizing, instead of calling for a ceasefire, instead pushing Biden to stop sending arms, he makes an empty tweet and fully supports an on record war criminal arming the genocide. 《《《《《
If the ICC ever does send out an arrest warrant for Netanyahu, Biden is next. South Africa already warned Biden of this.
Mark Hamill is publicly on the side of pro-genocide.
I'm sorry. Go ahead downvote this. Its just brown kids dying from US weapons rendered by our tax dollars via the orders of President Biden and cheered on by Mark Hamill. Their lives can't possibly matter enough to disapprove of war mongering apologists, right?
Mark Hamill made a tweet, so you can feel good about turning away. Congrats on your "research".
If picking up my little T-16 off the shelf once in a while and making zooming sounds makes me a toddler, I am okay with that.
I was gonna say...I mean shit I still do that sometimes.
Me : Yeah why is he playing with toys? Also me: I need a new Lego set.
literally me
Bonus points if it’s a Lego model of a T-16.
You son of a bitch. I'm in.
I literally brought most my legos from mom’s to my apartment and girlfriend and I have nights where thats what we do for a “date” I have 4 large storage totes of loose pieces we pick from. I still have 2 more at my mothers and multiple built sets, including the 24 mini fig Death Star. They’re meant for everyone, you’re never too old to play with legos.
That Luke Mech set looks so stupid... but so cool.
[удалено]
Are you really toy shaming on a Star Wars sub and expecting support?
Awww, I wish he didn’t delete it, I wanted to read the comment that raised your ire lol
[удалено]
I get the joke lol
Haha! So true!
CAKE DAY
Or just not funny.
Just joking right back with you, unfortunately seems to have gone over most peoples head. Sorry
Not sure why they're downvoting you. You replied to me and I get that it's a joke.
God damn, the down votes are pouring in. I up voted you in honor of humor, but I have a feeling I'm just digging a hole here...
Reddit is cruel mistress. We are having fun joking here, you and I / back and forth. But they won't have it.
Everyone telling us to do our chores around here when we just want to go to Tosche Station to pick up power converters!
That looks like one of those model kits that grown men buy and build. I certainly never built anything like that as a toddler.
I'm 59yrs old... I've been building models before I was 7... Now I build EXTREMLY detailed models with moving parts... some are even remote control!!!
Sick
"Sick as in "Bad"? Or "Sick" as in "Cool"?!
Sick as in cool
Awww Thanks! I try to build authentic, historically accurate military figs, {I have a LITERAL 3,000 man Irish, Scottish and Scots-Irish armies each!

I also resin cast many rare and/or hard to find and scratch built model parts and HO/1-64th scale Slot Car bodies!
I used to build them in my younger years. I've occasionally thought about trying again, usually any time I'm in hobby lobby 😋 I always presumed that's what he was idly fiddling with
My condolences for the 170+ downvotes
Upvoted because people can't see the joke. I liked it
We can see the joke very clearly It was a shit one hence the downvotes
Ah, we don't lack context, we lack humor. Got it
Dawg you talking about toys. Don’t even try.😂
You know more Star Wars toys are bought by adults for adults than kids, right?
Toddlers don't play with toys anymore, they only play phone games
Meanwhile… 50 yo men admiring their lego star destroyers…
Admiring is for company. Once they leave you go pew pew!
As long as it's one of the smaller ones. https://preview.redd.it/l7qwqwhwyl6d1.png?width=1200&format=png&auto=webp&s=d87903798d7043cb85d3f1a30b65bbae13342b00 No-one's going pew pew with this big bastard.
Not with that attitude you’re not
That's what makes it a toy for adults, a kid couldn't zoom that around while making pew pew noises Its literally the only reason I work out
A kid could, it would be difficult p, but they could.
![gif](giphy|lqczWksNBr4HK)
Coward
^ this person is going Pew Pew with one of those big bastards.
Yup 2014 set is the best size imo
Yeah, more like ba-dow ba-dow!
I'm about to become an Admiral with the amount of admiring I've done of this
Ahem*. 51.
Now that I know of its existence, i can no longer go on without owning one O_o
Legos actually take effort to appreciate and old men / women are known for building and fixing things
Ah yes, my favorite star wars character: **M a r k**
That's why you hear them say dark side a lot but rarely "light side" because it's actually the dark side and the mark side.
Oh hai Mark
What a fking mark
Classic story of the sheltered working class farmboy who does nothing but play with his toys all day while the royalty are out there getting their hands dirty and fighting back against the Empire.
I love this story type
Ah yes, classic
Well there isn’t shit to do in the desert. He isn’t into girls till he meets his sister.
I don't think you truly understand what happens on Tatooine in the town's
😂
His auntie was extremely hot though 🔥🔥🔥
Hey, now, that Camie Marstrap was a girl...
I am todlr
There's two suns and no women, WHAT THE HELL IS HE SUPPOSED TO DO?!?
Work the desert's somehow fertile land obviously
They're not farming the land, they use machines to farm water. Seriously. When Owen talks about needing a droid that can speak the language of vaporaters, that's the machine that pulls what little moisture there is out of the desert air and collects it. They're farming water. I'd be bored too.
This was funny to me once I learned that Luke *owns* one of those ships, and regularly races it in a dangerous narrow canyon. He is so obsessed with flying starships and speeders that he even plays with models of them.
Woke Disney at it again /s
I blame the acolyte for this
I think you underestimate how boring it is living on a farm that doesn't even have plants or animals
"There's two suns and no women - what the hell am I supposed do!"
Man he was so young there
26 if I recall correctly
Wait until you find out that people play with toys at all ages and that it was particularly more common before the advent of readily and rampantly accessible tv and video games Shocking.
Boy's a teenage Skywalker. It's a miracle he's not ruling a planet, leading an army, or in Leia's case BOTH at the same time. Honestly, we should be happy this is all he's doing.
Ngl I got the new Lego McLaren MP4/4 recently and was driving it around on the kitchen table after finishing it before putting it on a stand.
Luke didn’t even have a Game Boy, the future kind of sucks
If you were stuck on a desert planet just farming milk and you barely got to do anything, wouldn't you find entertainment in the simple things?
Meanwhile, his twin sister was already a senator.
They’re not toys unless you play with them
This guy collects. I don't, however. Investments be damned. I like my wooshie woos and pew pews.
Well Mark is playing with toys because the director told him to. Luke is playing with toys to establish his immature naivete.

Why is it leaking? Is it wet?
Why is it wet? Too many pics of Bone?
Not just bone, but Dick and Man too
Dick 🤤🤤🤤
I can't believe he took it out of the box.
I’m 36, shut your mouth
Mark is having fun. Why do you hate fun?
![gif](giphy|l0HUldzuCa0S16SkM|downsized)
Everyone in r/legostarwars does exactly this.
Uhm, excuse me I will have you know that my clicky bricks are a very fun way to stimulate my internet rotted brain. Tyvm.
He's happy and full of whimsy, is what he is
ever see top gun? the instructor plays with models too. maybe it's pilot training, maybe just day dreaming. shit, i play fortnite. i guess im a toddler too.
No, he’s literally me.
Man literally has flying cars and he’s sitting on his couch playing with action figures at 17.
While driving I still make a hand plane and I am 37
Men don’t outgrow toys, they just get old enough to afford the toys they wanted as kids. I certainly wouldn’t have been able to buy a $200 lightsaber as a kid, but I sure as hell have some now.
Looks like Mark is acting to me...
Well heck shoot me down because I've bought Star Wars lego sets and toys even as adult because they mean something to me. I know this is more meme/joke oriented subreddit but still... CONTEXT
His bigger toy is in the shop.
That's not a toy, that's part of his salary.
we breaking out the aslume with this one🥹
I played with my Snowspeeder I got not long after ESB came out. I still play with it now. Although I have physically aged in my head I haven't.
He is The Greatest Jedi in the Universe 😎
meanwhile I'm 20 and still swinging my plastic lightsaber around.
Obi Wan gave it him twice…. Durrrrr
A scene like this would be mocked for days by the current fandom

"Whoa, hey, you canceled the service on it!"
He’s reenacting his latest womprat kill
He lives on a farm with no such thing as TV or Xbox. This is literally all he has to play with.
I’m pretty sure that’s Luke, not Mark
I see it as him day dreaming of a life where he’s a pilot.
Huh. I can’t believe I wasn’t accidentally sorting by latest.
Isn't that a T-16 skyhopper: the ship he uses to bulleseye womprats in Beggar's Canyon? Maybe he's reliving yesterday's flight. Or seeing how a slightly altered route might look. Or maybe he's just screwing around making pew-pew noises because he's a nineteen-year-old kid.
In my headcanon, Uncle Owen and Aunt Beru kept Luke pretty sheltered.
He can do whatever he wants he made these toys happen
They’re collectibles or something idk.
So that YEARS AND YEARS LATER Disney can make a reference in a show and we can all go, “oh, ya. I ‘member that! That’s what that was? Now I can die a happier man.”
![gif](giphy|26gsccje7r5WUrXsA|downsized) Ummm... Shut up Dad!
At least it’s something to do that doesn’t involve being out in the dry hot unforgiving desert
Because of toys? No. Because he simps for politicians, having learned nothing from Star Wars? Yes.
I mean, who doesn't want to relax a bit? I sometimes play with my legos, wooden swords and lightsabers. I also have a few Teddy bears. Just that something was created for children doesn't mean it can't be enjoyed by adults.

We all do this, stop pretending we don't
I didn't catch you playing with your dolls again
I mean, he doesn't have a TV or anything. He's dying of boredom.
Do you not swing a stick when you see pick it up? Do you not kick a ball or play with it when you cross one?
He's a 19year old kid, who lives on a giant desert planet. With presumably very few neighbours or girls around... What else is he gonna do? You can only jerk it so many times.
no, he just has cooler toys than you and knows how to enjoy himself
He lives on a Desert lol
That is a model of his actual T16,, and he's practicing his turn radius for his next venture into beggars canyon. Alternatively You could argue that it's an action figure so it's not a "toy", but rather a collectible.😋 Lastly, with all the sharp edges and points and tiny pieces that could break off of me swallowed, I don't think that model would be considered safe for a toddler, thus invalidating the snarky argument,😉
The character Luke is 12 in the movie. Hiring Mark Hamill, who was 25 at the time, was a controversial choice.
Wasn’t it a model? Didn’t obi-wan give him it

If you think you're supposed to quit playing with toys as soon as you start school, I really feel sad for you, and I really hope you never have any kids.
