I love Lego. Love it.
You can probably guess where this is going.

I used parts I had on hand, which is why the two characters of color are, blasphemously, yellow. (The only darker heads I had were from NBA minifigs. The facial hair would have been inappropriate, especially on Zoe.) On the other hand, it's rather ethnocentric of me to assume that the yellow heads are any more representative of one race than any other.
Malcolm. This is a surprisingly accurate Lego version of his outfit.
Wash. This was the closest I could get to a Hawaiian shirt. But I love that I did find blonde hair.
Inara. (I didn't realize she was this blurry until I put all the stuff away. Hmph.) She's wearing Mary Jane’s dress from a Spidey set. :-) It’s not a full-on dress, because either I couldn’t find a brick to make the bottom half, or maybe I thought she was actually wearing pants.
Zoe. Love the shotgun. Another fairly faithful version of the outfit, but a yellow head seems so wrong.
Simon. This is another really good Lego rendition of the outfit. And his doctor bag, of course.
Jayne. This is probably the most accurate costume. Here he’s holding Vera, his “very favorite gun.” Heh heh heh.
Kaylee. Cool how the shirt actually looks like something she’d wear.
Book. This was the smallest book I could find, and it’s from a Harry Potter set, which means it’s probably an evil spell book. Again, no dark brown head -- but at least he’s got the 'stache.
I could never come up with anything that looked right for River. She bugged me until the movie came out, anyway. But maybe I'll try now. I’d like to make some Blue Hand guys. And of course the ship herself. That will take a while ...
