Description

The CubeDude idea

A CubeDude reduces a character to its essentials: an oversized cube for the head, a small body beneath it and just enough detail to make the figure recognisable. Helmets, visors and faces are suggested with a handful of bricks and plates. The appeal lies in that economy. Building one feels more like solving a small graphic puzzle than assembling a model, and the finished figures look closer to little sculptures than toys, which makes them well suited to a desk or bookshelf.

A convention piece

The catalogue number points to its origin: SDCC is the usual abbreviation for San Diego Comic-Con, one of the largest fan conventions for comics, film and television, and 2010 is the year. That places the set outside the regular range, among the special items connected to such events. Because these appear far less often than standard releases, they are of particular interest to collectors who follow the history of the Star Wars theme and its more unusual side projects.

Clone Wars colours

The Clone Wars began as an animated series in 2008, following the conflict between the Republic and the Separatists through its Jedi, clone troopers and droids. The main colours here, white, yellow, light bluish grey and black, suit that world: white for clone armour, grey for droids and machinery. There are 134 different part designs among the 416 pieces, a high count that reflects how much small detail each cube figure needs to capture a character.

Build them yourself

Special items like this turn up less often than regular sets, so the full inventory below is especially useful. It lists every element by colour and quantity, letting you check whether your own collection can cover the figures. The What can I build? tool goes further and shows which other sets your bricks could complete. Once you understand how the cubes are put together, you can also design CubeDudes of your own favourite characters using the same approach.
