This is an ultra-impressive Star Wars 'Return of the Jedi' themed LEGO chess set lovingly crafted by Brandon Griffith. It even has storage compartments for all the pieces under the play surface. What it doesn't have under its surface? A Rancor pit. Oh man, remember when Malakili the Rancor keeper was crying after Luke killed the thing? That made me sad because it was like, watching his pet die. But enough tears for today, let's talk about something happy. Something -- anything. "You have a birthday coming up." *sobbing* I'M JUST AN OLD DRIED-OUT PIECE OF SHIT ON THE SIDEWALK OF LIFE AND I KNOW IT.

Hit the jump for some closeups but be sure to check out Brandon's Flickr page for high-res shots.

Thanks to Artery, who agrees chess might be the game of kings, but dominoes -- dominoes is the game of the people. Or is it Connect Four?
