Hello everyone,

about six years ago, on a whim, I built a “LEGO BrickHeadz Mech” based on the monochrome white Brickhead from the LEGO set “Go Brick Me” 41597. I thought the result was quite fun and made a short video of it, which was quite well received. Now I decided to take it up again and create a post here on my website, including instructions.

At first glance, the model looks like any other Brickhead.

However, small functions are hidden inside. One of these is movable arms.
Arms moved outwards
For this purpose, movable bars with clips are built into the body, to which the arms are attached via bars with round plates. This creates two points of rotation, which gives the arm quite a bit of freedom of movement in one direction.

But the head is the main function. Here you can fold out the face to reveal a minifigure.

Here you can see the interior, dressed in tan, without a minifigure. The hinge is based on the same parts as the function of the arms.

Customization

The basic concept can of course also be applied to other Brickheadz. Here I have rebuilt my SigFig as an example.
