Hamster figurine

HamsterA simple, customizable hamster figurine, now with free building instructions available for Download.

Datasheet:

Dimensions: length 11 studs / width 10 studs / height 11 studs
Weight: 0.13 kg

A hamster figurine is a simple concept, designed for fun with simplicity, cuteness and customizability in mind. It is my first ever project submitted to LEGO Ideashttps://ideas.lego.com/projects/135524

It was designed to be small, and possibly close to the shape and colors of a real hamster. I also wanted to keep it simple, to make it easy to alter colors and accessorize it. For example many superheroes can be easily “hamsterized”:

hamster-all

Seeing as the support for the LEGO Ideas project has slowed down, I’ve decided to release free building instructions for the figurine, available in the Downloads section. If it doesn’t attract more support for the project, at least anyone interested will be able to build the figurine for him/herself. It’s also a way to say thank you for all the votes so far.

    @Marcus
    It’s called PF Extension Wire and I’m sure you’ll find it easily considering that it’s been on the market for nine years now.

    @Avery
    Try any color that resembles pink. There are many Lego colors like it, called magenta etc.

    Hi Sariel,

    I was wondering where you got the color for the hamsters feet and hands. I really love model and was trying to find all the pieces for it but those two pieces in that color I could not find.

    Technically yes, I just didn’t want to submit other versions to Lego Ideas because that would make them require Marvel’s and DC license. But yes, I may make instructions for them all in the future.

    Hi Sariel,

    Once again an amazing MOC. I have supported it since the start. I was wondering if it is possible for you to make your other hamsters as reskins of this amazing model.

    Thanks,
    Matty
