Summary

"Created by Finnish photographer Vesa Lehtimäki using his son's favorite LEGO toys, the book features painstaking recreations of classic movie moments and hilarious new takes on fan-favorite characters and themes. Informative captions give technical details for each scene, while anecdotes from Lehtimäki offer background insights to his creative process."--Amazon website. "The images Vesa created explore the what-ifs of the Star Wars universe. What if snowtroopers were inspired to make ice sculptures on Hoth? What if Ewoks jammed with the Cantina band? These stunningly realistic photographs are inspired by the Hoth-like landscapes of Vesa's native Finland. They quickly became an online phenomenon and inspired the creators of The Lego Movie. This book will delight and enthrall fans of all ages!"--edited from back cover.
