I figured I’d do my little Pixel’d Buzz (Buzz 247) as a giant Minecraft sculpture. Two dimensional this time.

What My Minecraft and Perler Bead Buzz Lightyears Turn Up
If you search “Minecraft Buzz Lightyear” some of the stuff that comes up was either made by me or copied from slash inspired by something I did. Enjoy all of the found examples below.
Thanks to all of the folks who have immortalized my stuff by doing your own versions! I’m honored.
First up,
Lego Minifig Buzz Pixel Art
From this blog on December 19th, 2010:
“In 2002 I was very into pixel art… and I really wanted a Buzz Lightyear Lego minifig. Alas there wasn’t such a thing until 2010. Here is what I imagined a Buzz Lightyear Minifig would look like.”
Buzz 162 – Pixel Joint Buzz In Minecraft
The inspiration for this Buzz came from Pixel Joint. Specifically from sedgemonkey. I made some modifications to the wings and would have done a few more if time allowed. I can’t afford to be a perfectionist and still crank these out every day.
This Buzz says, “That’s my son back there. Just ignore him. He’s special.”

Buzz 133 – Minecraft Buzz Number Four
I found this cool pixel Buzz online and wanted to build it in Minecraft… so I did. I know I’ve done a few of these now… but I really enjoy seeing these super small pixel images done up as huge monuments in-game. I used a technique I found on YouTube to squeeze a few more colors out of Minecraft. If you build using two layers instead of one, you can sick a block back behind another and get a darker version of that color… because the game draws a shadow over it. So when you’re looking at Buzz here, the purple is actually all the same color… but the ones that appear darker are actually just set back one block.
This Buzz says, “I look much better than my predecessors.”
Buzz 025 – Minipop Buzz
Remember those Yahoo Music commercials from a few years ago that used those pixelized representations of musicians? They’re called Minipops and were created by Craig Robinson over at FlipFlopFlyin’.
This Buzz was not created by Mr. Robinson… but it was done in the Minipop style. Buzz is only 21 pixels high… but he’s been enlarged for your viewing pleasure.
Today’s Buzz says, “I’m a sad strange little man.”
Buzz 013 – Favicon Buzz
This little guy was originally created in 2002 modeled after game characters from the GameBoy Color. I updated a pixel here and there and he now has a home as this site’s favicon up in the address bar.
