Absol: The Disaster Pokémon

It is a long-lived POKéMON that has a life-span of 100 years. It lives in a harsh, rugged mountain environment. This Pokémon very rarely ventures down from the mountains. Every time Absol appears before people, it is followed by a disaster such as an earthquake or a tidal wave. As a result, it came to be known as the disaster Pokémon.

My favorite Dark Type Pokémon from Generation 3! It had such a cool design and lore! This minifigure MOC was pretty straightforward, with the only things to keep an eye on was making sure the head wasn't too small for its body and that its body maintained that slender form. It's actually really interesting how similar in build Absol's body is to Wyrdeer's!

This has probably been done before, but this has to be one of the most satisfyingly accurate minifig scale pokemon you can build using official pieces!

Murkrow: The Darkness Pokémon

Feared and loathed by many, it is believed to bring misfortune to all those who see it at night. It appears near travelers to lure them into deep forests. It is said that when chased, it lures its attacker onto dark mountain trails where the foe will get lost.

I was inspired by u/weswakely's minifigure MOC of his Murkrow to make one myself! However, the first attempt ended up being too big, so that version will be called the "Alpha Murkrow" version, which you can see Brendan has had the misfortune of bumping into one...

My second attempt was more to miniature scale, which I've added a shiny version to!

Since the big Murkrow is so much bigger than the small Murkrow, I thought it would be fun to also add u/weswakely's version as well, so I guess we have a "Murkrow the Teeny", and "Murkrow the Previous Alpha"!

Spiritomb: The Forbidden Pokémon

This Lego minifigure moc was fun to make thanks to Spiritomb's simple design and unique feature: its ghostly, 1,000-souled body can spin independently from its face thanks to the 2 functional spin plates I put on it! You can see that the face can remain riqht-side up even as the body rotates position! Thanks to the bar attachment to the modified brick, Spiritomb can also turn 360° to look all around it.
