LEGO builder and Star Wars fan Brandon Griffith built this awesome chess set from Empire Strikes Back LEGO pieces.

My favorites are the mini dioramas detailing the bishops: bounty hunters and Han-in-carbonite for the Empire, Chewie w/busted C-3PO and Lando with his Bespin cronies for the Rebel Alliance. The Rebel queen with Han and Leia kissing in the Cloud City was especially well done.
Hey thats my buddy Brandon!!! Everyone also check out his LEGO New Hope Chess Set, ESB is Epic, but ANH is just as good! Check him out on flickr, icgetaway.
