There is not one thing that can’t be done with LEGO, and this impressive LEGO Star Wars foosball table is a great
proof. I stumbled upon this LEGO table when I was looking for inspiration for my next LEGO project to
work on with my son and I must say, this one has really left me speechless. I am a huge LEGO ,
foosball and Star Wars fan so the LEGO Star Wars foosball table is like a dream come true so it is
definitely something to try to make at home.
Everything made from LEGO
There is not one thing in this foosball table that it is done without LEGO bricks. The walls and the
entire frame are made with one row of bricks, I would maybe do it with two, but that is a thing I can
still test. The frame stands on four square legs which makes it pretty stable. I love that you
don’t have to have leg levellers when you have LEGO legs. All you can do is add another row of bricks
if you need to level the surface. Goals are on each end of the table and they are made
outside of the frame. Due to the nature of LEGO bricks I find that solution better than to build goals
inside the frame.
When you look at the table from the above you can’t really tell it is a LEGO table because it looks like
an ordinary one. There are 4 rods on each side of the table and the players are placed in the 1-man
goalie system. 1-man goalie and 3-man goalie system have one main difference and that is the
number of players on the rod right in front of the goal and both systems are used in real foosball
tournaments all over the world.
The players are divided into two teams – the good ones and the bad ones. One team are Rebel
Soldiers and you can notice Princess Leia, Han Solo, Luke and even C3PO (he is the goalkeeper),
while the bad team consists of Stormtroopers. It would be awesome to have Darth Vader on the
goal, but that is something you can do when you make your own LEGO Star Wars foosball table.
The playing surface is smooth which allows the ball to roll from one player to the other and the best
part is the fact that you can spin the rods. That means that this LEGO Star Wars foosball table is
actually playable which makes it even more awesome than before!
The only thing I would add to this table is the scoring system on the wall between the goalkeeper
and the goal and I would put Darth Vader in front of the goal of the “bad team”. Everything else is
pretty impressive and extremely creative and I would definitely recommend to the people in LEGO to
make a pack like this because people would go nuts over it. Am I right?
