Combining Star Wars and Breakdancing

As a child in the 1980s, I loved Star Wars and breakdancing more than anything else. My friends and I figured out a way to combine the two and create the ultimate dance battle. In this article, we will explore how to create the perfect action figure for breakdancing and perform the ultimate head spin.

Choosing the Right Action Figure

Not all Star Wars figures can be used for breakdancing. You need an original three and three quarter inch action figure, and it’s best to avoid using a mint condition figure that’s worth a lot of money. Instead, find a couple of figures with nice round heads. The Stormtrooper in Hoth battle gear is a good choice. Remove any weapons from the figure, as this is a dance battle, not a gunfight.

Creating the Perfect Action Figure for Breakdancing

To create the perfect action figure for breakdancing, take a dime and wedge it in between the action figure’s legs at the top, so that you’re flush with the crotch. This will push the legs out slightly, creating a Y shape. This will make it easier to perform the head spin.

Performing the Head Spin

To perform the head spin, find a nice flat surface and place the action figure on its head. Grab the figure on either side and try to get it on its arms, so you have some leverage. Give it a good twirl like a top, using some force if possible. The dime should help the figure spin smoothly, and you should be able to perform an impressive head spin.

Conclusion

Combining Star Wars and breakdancing is a fun and creative way to enjoy two childhood favorites. By following these simple steps, you can create the perfect action figure for breakdancing and perform the ultimate head spin. So grab your action figures and get ready to breakdance like a Jedi!
