Inthert is back in Glup Bricko trophy mode, and Huyang is a wonderfully nerdy choice. An ancient lightsaber expert droid already has that perfect Star Wars mix of deep-lore charm and oddball silhouette, which makes him a great subject for a character model. He is not the flashiest robot in the galaxy, but he has the kind of personality that sneaks up on you, especially if you enjoy the weirder corners of Jedi history.
What I like about this as a contest trophy is that it feels like a prize with actual character. Huyang is a teacher, a caretaker of tradition, and a walking archive of “please stop damaging the equipment” energy. That gives the model more flavor than a generic shiny award ever could. A good brick-built droid needs readable posture, careful shaping, and just enough mechanical fussiness to feel alive, and this subject gives Inthert plenty to play with. If the Glup Bricko contest is handing out ancient lightsaber mentors, consider my attention fully captured.
