This post is a review of the nanoblock Bob build. Bob is one of the Universal Studios Japan (USJ) nanoblock kits. Wondering what else is part of the USJ builds collection? Click here for a list.

Difficulty Rating: 2/5

Bob is of the several minions that have jobs. He has different color eyes and is holding a one-eyed teddy bear.

The build begins with a base with several colors to create the bear, Bob’s hands, and body.

You build up layer by layer from the base layer, forming the bear and Bob. I like how they make various depths with an inset mouth and goggles that stick out.

The layers continue up, and the build becomes more yellow. Once you build the yellow layer, you make the strap for the goggles. Then you layer on the yellow to finish the minion’s head.

Next, you flip over the build and add a little more detail to the bear and Bob’s legs.

The final step is to start building on the base. First, you add the feet of both the minion and the bear. Next, you add the legs. The final step is to add the minion body onto the legs.
