The Builders Behind LoBricks
Our Story: Boredom and Bricks
LoBricks officially kicked off in 2020. Like many people, we found ourselves with a lot of unexpected free time and a desire to channel our inner child which, for us, meant dusting off our old LEGO collection. Our love for LEGO, combined with a lifelong obsession with Star Wars, quickly led us to start filming our builds. What began as a simple way to pass the time and document our personal creations quickly grew into a channel focused on in-depth reviews, custom building tutorials, and a healthy dose of sarcasm regarding the price of the Ultimate Collector Series. We believe in the power of the brick to spark creativity and, more importantly, the power of BrickLink to save you money!
The 501st Legion and 'Bad Guys Doing Good'
If you're a Star Wars fan, you’ve probably heard of the 501st Legion, also known as Vader’s Fist. This is a worldwide, all-volunteer organization that brings Imperial characters like Stormtroopers, Darth Vader, and our favorite, the Clone Troopers of the 501st to life with movie-accurate costumes. They are often called "Bad Guys Doing Good." The entire purpose of the organization is to use their costumes for charity and volunteer work.
The 501st Legion is heavily involved with various charitable organizations, most notably the Make-A-Wish Foundation. They frequently appear at wish events to grant Star Wars-related wishes for children with critical illnesses. Their presence—from a squad of Troopers escorting a "Wish Kid" to an event to creating an unforgettable moment with a favorite character—adds a massive dose of magic and is a true testament to the positive impact of Star Wars fandom. Our channel, in a small way, celebrates their dedication through our reviews of the Clone Troopers and other Imperial sets.
