For those who were wondering I use stop motion studio pro to animate and I film at 12fps.

Why did he choose to take jangos head of first

Is nobody gonna talk about how he said ‘Until I started the French Revolution’

In daycare I remember among the toys there were not enough heads for the minifigures so we used to pretend the neck stalk was the head and that square of printing was a space helmet visor.

When I was little, I thought the white or black meant how rare the fig was 🤣

I might have a plausible answer to this: the minifigs shown in this video can be found in those Lego magnet packs back in the early 2000s that weren’t glued to the magnet brick but were slowly phased out following glued minifigs in 2011. I can confirm as I own some Lego Indiana Jones and Star Wars magnets and these figures do not have the neck print as typically found on normal Lego minifigs; these early figures were produced in China I believe and not in normal Lego factories at the time. I can also attest to this claim with the printing on a magnet Han Solo and Indiana Jones being much sharper with better coloring for the skin tone on the torso but some of the faces are a tad off and thicker than the normal heads. Hope this clears things up!

It is so that the arms are placed in the correct edition. I found out from a long-form video here on YouTube, but I can’t remember who published it.

I personally thought as a kid that the reason Lego mini figures have this is because it was supposed to be like a neck cast or smth incase u wanted to pretend the mini figure was injured

[helpineedmoresleep]

i believe it depends what factory the mini figs were made in, most of my clone wars figs don’t have the mark and i’m from the UK

Theres nothing we can do Alexaiver Studious-2024

I always thought the square was just something official Lego used for validating it

[_trashvis_]

the reason why some do not have a mark on the neck is because of the factory they were made. some factories had more advanced technology that can scan and see what way the body is facing. the factory in denmark still uses the mark as a guide to tell what way the body is facing.

Oh even though the little print on the neck may be important, I hate it because the print always wears down and it's annoying

HE DARES TO NOT TAKE OFF THE HELMET FIRST, BRO IS A TRUE DAMN VILLIAN

[Rapboy.lego.collector]

There are some figs like the first carnage that have the same printing on both sides so they dont have that square

[victim_of_soad]

Im not too sure, but i think it's because of where the torso is produced, i think that the ones with a mark are made in denmark, and the ones without it are made in the rest pf the world.

[swagy]

I think for the one sided ones the square isn’t required but they’ve printed it on benny anyway

[jonathanpope]

The mark is used to identify the front from the back when fitting the arms.

[Raymal]

Could be there are different printers at different factories some rely on the mark, others don't need it
