>“We knew that the grey alien is such an icon – but we’ve done it already,” Esa recalls. “So how do we do it again? Should we bring back the old grey alien head? But that’s very static. You can’t do anything else with that. And then we decided that we need to decorate it on a minifigure head, so the character can have a hat. Also, you can take this head anywhere and put it in any scene.

>“You could take it to your castle or pirate scene, and who’s to say that alien tourists weren’t visiting Earth in pirate times or medieval times? So that was such a fun addition. We’ve been playing around with this guy a lot, putting different wigs and stuff [on him], so it’s super cool.”

>“We had this early concept of an alien with a lawnmower doing crop circles,” he says. “But the crop circle is a very complex adult story. And we were like, ‘Oh, what if he had a 2×2 tile that describes how he will draw [the crop circles]?” But no, it doesn’t really work. And then one day Esa came up with: grey alien tourist. And at first I was like, ‘Okay, he can’t have a laser. He can’t have all this astronaut gear.’

>“But then as soon as I started working him out, it just became one of my favourite characters from the line-up, because I think it touched upon something else that is really important. When we talk about robots, AI, aliens, it’s always with this doom and gloom. But I think what we managed with the tourist is that he became this cute, friendly guy who loves Earth and just wants to visit.

>“It’s the same thing with the robots and the service droid – they are happy friends with humans. I think that’s a general positive overarching theme.”
