One piece in LEGO Collectible Minifigures 71046 Series 26 is sure to be a hit with Star Wars enthusiasts for a very specific reason.

Of the 12 new minifigures in 71046 Series 26, one has caught our eye for its odd connection to LEGO Star Wars. The series is full of space-centric characters from an alien tourist to various minifigures with Classic Space references.

That’s as well as a dark blue and pink insect-like creature featuring four eyes and mandibles on its head. Those who have watched Star Wars: The Clone Wars may see an odd resemblance to Admiral Trench.

The head is by no means perfect but with some alternate printing, it could be a worthy head for the unique admiral. Alternatively, the head with its standard printing could still be recognisable as the spider-like visage of Admiral Trench, even with some metallic detailing for his cybernetics in his later appearance.

How you might approach the rest of his body and his six arms is another question but it’s a good start on a unique LEGO Star Wars minifigure that we’re unlikely to ever see officially. What we have seen officially is a model similar to his ship – the Invincible.

75377 Invisible Hand is a recreation of a capital ship similar to the Invincible and this set combined with the upcoming minifigure in 71046 Series 26 could be a decent homage to the Star Wars admiral, with some modifications.

71046 Series 26 will be available from May 1 and will be followed in September by a series based on Dungeons & Dragons. You can find out more about 71046 Series 26 by clicking here.

LEGO has been a part of my life ever since I was young. It all started when my brother passed down 7657 AT-ST to me. It’s guided me through my early years, through school and eventually through my degree in journalism. I still have all my collection proudly on display, including my many NINJAGO sets, my favourite of all the LEGO Group’s themes. Outside of Brick Fanatics I am an avid gamer and enjoy a good game of Dungeons & Dragons.
