     When building with minifigs, you can mix and match their torsos with various legs or give them different hairpieces and accessories. But in the end, most minifigs end up looking somewhat similar.

   • 2026 April 12, Shane Kosakowski, “Crowmaster” (11:21 from the start), in Universal Basic Guys‎, season 2, episode 18, spoken by Dr. Michael Chalupa (Chris Wilson):

     “In my past life, I was the world's foremost crow expert. I lived among them. Wrote the book. But even I didn't grasp how diabolical they were. They find your weakness. For me, it was Lego.” “Legos?” “No! The plural of Lego is Lego. It started small. A few random bricks. Soon they were bringing me all kinds of rare pieces. Modulars and the like. But then they wanted more than cashews. And I started doing things that still haunt me-- The wanted me to destroy my neighbor's fake owl. Smash a raven's nest. Burn a scarecrow. Then one day, they invited me to their roost. Said I was to become their "Crowmaster" And they brought me the minifig I most coveted: Cloud City Boba Fett. But in return, they asked me to do something... unspeakable. It was a bridge too far. I refused. And in return, they took my eyes! Now go! I've already said too much.”
