theJude's Most Wanted Parts

[Jude Parrill]

As a follow-up to this thread, I decided to create a list of parts I think are important and would like to see released officially. I intend to update this over time, removing parts that are released and adding new parts as need/want arises. I'd like to encourage others to add their own lists as well, as I'm bound to miss/forget parts and it's always good to add other perspectives to the discussion.

As a side note to the question, "Why don't you build/perfect/review them yourself?" I lack the tools and technical know-how to do this myself. I know, given enough time, I could probably figure it out, but, for me, time is always an issue. In the time it would take me to become proficient enough to be of any real use, these parts could probably have been developed, from scratch, 10 times over. It's not that I wouldn't like to contribute to the community, it's just I don't think I'll be doing it in the area of parts development.

Editing this post since my one above now contains my list. I may repurpose this post for something else soon, but for now I'll just delete out the stuff that's either been released or is in my list above and keep the rest as a reminder to myself to deal with later.

I belive your idea is good. Personally, I´m very interested in minifigs, so the parts i miss are related with them:

Minifig Bowler hat - 95674
Minifig Mexican Sombrero - 90307
Animal Cow - 64452
Animal Camel
Boat Canoe - 6021
Cloth Tent
Cloth Tepee Cover - x172
Headgear Helmet Spartan Warrior - 90392
Headgear Hood Farmer's Cowl - x79

posting individual wishlists here will quickly create a big pile of lists which are not related to each other.

Instead, I suggest to create a central wishlist, with a vote feature:

Philo, thank you very much for your work. You´re the best.

Hey, I've been working on some Star Wars sets recently and was wondering if anybody would like to take a crack at a couple of Minifig parts that I could really use:

From numerous TIE sets (and to go with the recently released TIE Pilot Helmet):
973px69

From the 7110 Landspeeder set (and others):
970c01px3

Very nice!
- How did you make it? I didn't found it in LDD... so did you use a 3D-scanner or is it your mastery of all the technique of part building...

just curious...

...and a lot of post cleaning/editing

Thank you very, very much, Philo. Awesome as usual.

I can get a 600 DPI scan of the TIE Pilot torso this weekend, but need to get used to the pattern tools before I would try take it on.

Thanks to Daniel for making Luke's legs:

Now I'll have all the necessary parts to make 7110.

...done, as well as patterned versions.


The rim of LDD part was not very good, I had to rebuild it...

Thank you very much, Philo.
