How to Make a LEGO Skeleton

The LEGO company was founded in Denmark in 1932. Since then, the company has expanded to over 130 countries. Today, it is the world's fourth largest producer of children's toys. Skeleton models have been made by LEGO since 1995, when they were included in the Pirates product pack. At the moment, skeleton models are a part of many different LEGO sets, including the Atlantis, Harry Potter and Ninjago sets. Making a LEGO skeleton is a bit more complex than making a regular LEGO person, as the arms and legs of the skeleton are attached in a different way.

  Acquire the necessary basic parts for your skeleton. This includes the torso, legs, arms and head. Buy one of several product sets that includes a skeleton figure, such as LEGO Atlantis or Harry Potter. Visit an online store that sells LEGO parts individually. The LEGO Skeletons Battle Pack gives you enough parts for five customizable skeletons.

  Connect the skeleton legs to the skeleton torso. Each of the two legs should snap into place at the hip area of the torso.

  Connect the skeleton arms to the skeleton torso. Each of the two arms will click into place in the shoulder sockets of the torso.

  Attach the skeleton head to the skeleton torso. The head should click into place on the small rod, or "neck" of the torso.

  Attach any other optional LEGO parts. Some skeleton heads will have another connector knob for a hat or helmet. Place any weapons or tools you like into the hands of the skeleton.
