Why I Don't Build Imperial LEGO Star Wars Mocs! 

I definitely can relate to this. I get more excited to work on Clone Wars related MOCs. I've built Hoth and a Tatooine Stormtrooper base, which were both fun, but I feel like I will run out of excitement for OT battles and structures after I have built them once or twice. For CW MOCs on the other hand, I feel like I can continue revisiting planets/locations with new ideas. Definitely helps that there is so much source material.

CW mocs will always be superior! I do love imperials tho

the “most of Star Wars” is perfect hahahahah

A Mimban MOC would be absolutely incredible to see on a large scale, perhaps you could even build it after Coruscant! Great video, Coconut!

Bro the thumbnail 💀💀

I missed out on the golden age. I started getting in when I was 7, which was in 2015, the end of the age. :(

This also gets me thinking about the Brick Wiz’s venture into making an Imperial Endor moc and how he lost steam about a month or 2 into the build. You definitely want to do something you’re full invested in and passionate about seeing through👍🏻

It's understandable why you focus on one over the other. My theory is that it's generational, and for yourself that means Clone wars and the age of the republic, which is awesome. I grew up with episodes 4-6 and that's where my heart resides, in more recent years I gave the clone wars a look and quickly fell in love with the stories. Build what fuels your passion and if the notion strikes you to build in the imperial era then by all means do that. ✌️❤️🌮's

It’s great to see Lego RU-vidrs going of what’s nostalgic and not what is “trendy”

Its pretty interesting to see how what we watched growing up affects us now! I was born in 2008 and did watch a little bit of the clone wars around 2014 and 2015 because my older cousins loved it! I personally though have the same nostalgia you have for the clone wars for the force awakens and the last jedi (not episode 9) and for some reason I'm also very drawn the imperial/original trilogy era and just trying to build a clone wars/prequals moc drains my motivation. Keep up the great work coconut and cant wait to someday see you do an amazing imperial moc!

Everything you said about the clone wars and growing up, is everything I grew up with! It’s nice knowing I’m not the only one feeling that way

For these style videos I think no edits or minimal edits would make them better. You are opening up to us and some pauses would make the quality of video better. Maybe less cuts in other videos too!

Yeah I just do clone wars mocs because I don’t really have any imperial minifigures

Yo coconut! Long time no see!

No, I love the Clone wars Mocs. Imperial Mocs are not my Favourite pls do more Clone wars Mocs pls it’s the best 👍👍👍

Pursue the content you want to do. Though a mimban moc would be sick to see on large scale! Excited to see your next coruscant update!

Should have just said Imperial Mocs are too grey and black? 😂

I think one thing that helps with clone wars Mocs is the clone wars had so many battles to go off as long as you had some vague idea of the planet aesthetic you had a starting point but imperial has a few big key battles (obviously there’s a lot more in books but that’s a smaller audience) and that’s it, so it’s hard to do larger Mocs unless you’re making one up, which is obviously fine but a lot of people want to make Mocs with some reference

I haven’t started building yet, but I’m planning on doing that period of time between clone wars and the original trilogy.

Honestly you should make a discord, so everyone can show off their moc’s and help learn/teach others

I come for Star Wars Clone Wars, because i collect Clones and Droids.

This guy has the coolest figs, especially his rino company p1 clones

The obvious reason is the clone wars is just more interesting

Nice

Coconut I have a video idea! "top 3 order 66 scenes"😁

thank god!! this was having me tossing and turning all last night

Bro is basically clone wars brick studios

Well Ethan, some of us prefer the law, order, and prosperity that our glorious Empire provides rather than all that Jedi-fueled chaos that plagued the galaxy during the Clone Wars era. 😂 Haha in all seriousness. it's good that CW is your strong point. I'd literally get zero views on my imperial mocs if I had to compete with you for viewers. ;)

Imperial era is my fav but the challenge videos are awesome but if you could make more rotj challenge Mocs it would be insane and I love all your Mocs so keep up the good work

Did you ever play Battlefront 2 (the original, not the EA one)? It would be super cool if you made a MOC of the destruction of Kamino where the newly formed Empire fought newly born clone trooper rebels made by the Kaminoans in an attempt to save themselves from the Empire'swrath. Not really canon anymore thanks to Bad Batch but it could be a fun, fresh idea and help blend in a little Imperial era MOC while still being a Clone Wars MOC.

how do you do it to have so many parts? I always run out of tiles 😅

Honest, fair, respect dude

I clicked the video immediatly when I saw the thumbnail lol.

First Order mocs left the chat

I love the imperial era Mocs but I think you should build more imperial mocs

This is the way i think half lego collectors are clone wars fan and im agree with them clone wars era is something but original era is cool i love empire i wish that lego make some good specialist empire battle pack

What if you did an early era Imperial build where they still used republic equipment?

You earned the like by dragging that horrid disney trilogy.

I personally prefer clone wars and only buy clone wars sets cause that's what I enjoy most so I can definitely relate to how you feel

I like this position. You’re being honest about your emotional bias and not making it into an attack on a different part of Star Wars. Another big LEGO Star Wars RU-vidr who I won’t name, made an entire video about how he refused to watch the mandalorian after Bo-Katan made a cameo because he “didn’t care about the clone wars”

Epic thumbnail lol

I enjoy a good sw moc, regardless of the era. Keep up the great content!

I love da mocs ya see. 😏

I’m so excited for the battle of mimban

empire>republic stormtroopers>clones

one day there will be glory for the empire

Empire is more better than Clones lol

An endor MOC would have been AWESOME, but you should do what you want and what is best for your channel.

I love clone wars but the empire is the best

Sup

Got a question. Just got back into Lego Star Wars a few months ago and I’m wanting to start a RU-vid around it. That and to discuss characters/lore based around a fan fic I’ve been writing for a few years now. To sum it up though what would be some key points to a solid foundation for a Lego Star Wars/ lore channel

Funny when you consider the fact that a great deal of Imperial vehicles originated during the Clone Wars

I LOVE THE THUMBNAIL OF THIS VIDEO!! Very creative

Go where the views r. Makes sense. I was born in 83 and didn't watch clonewars as a kid(obviously) but yet I still love it.

I just started a Lego Star Wars channel and your information has helped a lot thank you coconut, your content is the best!!

As someone who kinda hates the prequels I would love to see a big moc from you from a different era but I’m glad you’re sticking to what you know and enjoy and I don’t want to discourage you from doing that

hey @coconutbricksstudios you know custom clone army right? want to know how you make the 501st clone troopers awsome making them look accurate? it's mainly the helmet you have to do is look for a stylish 501st helmet and the legs as well of another main part add in just a normal leg of the 2014 phase 1 clone from attach of the clones and having sort of the best accurate figure, also. How to make a best clone wars clone trooper from the tv show phase 1 is like having the new torso and legs from the new lego clone trooper from the new battle pack of battle of genosios and getting the 2012 phase 1 clone trooper helmet, making it look like from the clone wars more accurate because the original clone wars clone trooper from 2012 didn't have leg printing or it didn't have like the belt side ammo's bigger. And did you know there is Custom battle droid arms for the B1 battle droids. if you wanted to make like a lego moc yourself from the clone wars TV show can it be like where the clones are attacking this palace on the mountains to rescue jaba's son in the clone wars movie with ashoka and anakin! I love it how captain rex & the clones where kicking clanker and grabbing their weapons to kill them. that's the part of my favorite scene of the movie also if you ever wanted to do a different moc like from the old republic you can have the new torso of the clone trooper, and poe dameron's Helmet from his new x-wing set for 4+ making a republic trooper. and having the shuttle pilot's helmet from the deathstar turret set with old ben kenobi in it and having crosshair's torso or death trooper's torso making it a sith trooper and where a first sith mission on the space ship to get their scientist back and where you fight this twi'lik jedi knight. i just love coming up with new ideas and trying up to give some good ideas to others including you coconut, i love your videos too. might make a stopmotion lego video of you of a funniest way too LOL I hope you have a nice day and i understand really wanting to do clone wars Battles really do! it's real fun to do!

CLONE WARS❤!!!❤!!!❤

I balance my clone wars and imperial mocs very evenly. Please build a large scale Endor moc if you want to

I really love your Mimban Mocs and I am very Excited to hear you want to build another one

clones>stormtroopers

Your Prequel Backstory brought a tear to my eyes.

Nice man

Ngl I would really like to see you explore more of the obscure clone wars battles, the battle of Kamino in the comics would be awesome

That large Endor Moc sounds sick!! Hopefully you’ll do it in the future!

At first, I was a bit disappointed to see that you didn’t have any Original Trilogy MOCs on your channel, but this was such an a good explanation as to why you don’t. I totally understand you, and I admire all of your ambitious work. As much as I love the original movies, the Clone Wars does indeed have superior potential when it comes to MOC building. Great stuff man, keep it up!

I share the same emotional attachments to the Clone Wars era and am always excited to see those built out in a physical form. But also as a Star Wars fan in general I enjoy seeing other MOCs, the creativity and effort that go into those just as much. I usually just see "Star Wars" and "Lego" then click on it instead of paying attention to the era, even the sequel based ones that I wasn't so into. It's Lego and creativity and Star Wars and I can appreciate it without having to watch those movies over again! I enjoy your channel, builds and tips, good luck growing you audience and subscribers!!

clone wars just built different

Clones are just cooler than Stormtroopers and that's just facts. I think the clone wars show really just makes clones more badass and the sets are cooler as well!

That Thumbnail is amazing!!
