In many ways, Lego C-3PO (75398) was always doomed to play second fiddle to the ever popular R2-D2 models, but that doesn't mean that everybody's favourite prissy, unpleasable, long-suffering metal mannequin isn't going to put the effort in.
The Lego C-3PO is not without its flaws, but they're overcome by a loving attention to detail. Some Lego kits are intended to be toys and some intended to be models, and this is undoubtedly the latter. Articulation and playability are made secondary to visual flourish, so while C-3PO might not do much once he's built, he cuts an undeniably impressive figure. It's not often you'll see somebody walking crotch-first, but Anthony Daniels undeniably did so in the movies, and even that gait is recreated here.
