After a couple of standard release Minifigure series LEGO blew everybodies expectations out of the water with the release of Disney Series 1 Minifigures on May 1st 2016 and they went down an absolute storm, featuring 18 characters from all of your favourite Disney shows! With 17 all-new, special minifigures in Series 10, the LEGO® Minifigure Collection continues to grow. Each minifigure comes in a sealed 'mystery' bag with its own special accessories, display plate and collecto r's leaflet. Inspired by movies, sports, history and just everyday life, this collection includes: Warrior Woman, Decorator, Sad Clown, Roman Commander, Bumblebee Girl, Motorcycle Mechanic, Grandpa, Revolutionary Soldier, Baseball Fielder, Librarian , Sea Captain, Medusa, Skydiver, Trendsetter, Paintball Player, and Tomahawk Warrior. How To Find One: By far the easiest minifig to find. She’s basically the chunkiest minifig due to her snakelike lower body which is easy to spot.

André Schürrle | Bastian Schweinsteiger | Benedikt Höwedes | Christoph Kramer | Jérôme Boateng | Joachim Löw | Manuel Neuer | Marco Reus | Mario Götze | Mats Hummels | Max Kruse | Mesut Özil | Sami Khedira | Shkodran Mustafi | Thomas Müller | Toni Kroos Here’s the Medusa from the side to give you an idea of how awesome her tail and lower half of her body looks like. Cool, an old Lego minifig. Another rarity due to the fact that Lego loves printing young action oriented men, or middle aged family dudes. And yes, that is a glorious balding hairpiece. Grandpa comes with a mug for his tea or coffee and a newspaper tile titled “Old Times” bearing a photograph of an old jalopy on it. His facial features are great with a ton of wrinkles, moustache and reading glasses. His torso has some nice detail on it, with a bowtie, suspenders and a very subtle belly. Now I’m a little torn on the belly detail. It’s a neat touch, but I would’ve preferred it not to be there, simply because I could’ve swapped it out to dress up any hipster minifigs I might want to make. They proved that huge a success they couldn’t wait to release further LEGO Minifigure ranges and started releasing one new series approximately every 4 Months. Here’s the Paintball Player unmasked, sporting a huge grin on his face. He’s obviously not a talented paintball player since his jumpsuit is littered with shots, and the look of his face clearly translates into “I am in so much pain right now but I’m trying to grin so that you don’t think I’m a pansy”.Animal | Beaker | Dr. Bunsen Honeydew | Fozzie Bear | Gonzo | Janice | Kermit the Frog | Miss Piggy | Rowlf the Dog | The Swedish Chef | Statler | Waldorf Bumblebee Girl, Medusa, Paintballer, Revolutionary Soldier, Roman Commander, Sad Clown, Sea Captain, Skydiver and Warrior Woman are the only minifigures from this series confirmed for the LEGO Minifigures MMO. Here’s a little thing I whipped up, featuring a cameo from the Roman Commander that I’ll review in Part 2.

With the addition of the Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts Minifigure Series and now Disney Series 2 LEGO Minifigures released on May 1st 2019 there are even more sought after Minifigures to add to your collection. Bear Costume Guy | Dog Sitter | Fire Fighter | Fox Costume Girl | Fright Knight | Galactic Bounty Hunter | Gardener | Jungle Explorer | Monkey King | Mountain Biker | Mummy Queen | Pizza Costume Guy | Programmer | Rugby Player | Shower Guy | Video Game Champ

Series 10 was a very controversial series of minifigures as problems occurred from both fans and stores. Collectible LEGO Minifigures were first released in 2010, with the initial trial release of Series 1 Minifigures, What LEGO weren’t expecting was them to start flying off the shelves from day 1!

Here’s a closer look at his accessories and an aerial view of his balding hairpiece, where you can see the combover that Grandpa is sporting. Here’s a shot of his accessories. The visor is similar to the skier ones they’ve released previously. The gun is a fantastically detailed piece of equipment. Lego have a certain policy about weapons, specifically firearms which makes them not make as many of them as we’d like, so another cool firearm is always nice to have. His helmet is your standard stunt helmet, embellished with a paintball marker hit, which is a nice touch.And a closeup of her head full of snakes as hair, which will turn anyone to stone the moment they set their eyes on the dreaded gorgon. The hairpiece is made out of the new rubbery plastic that Lego is so fond of using lately, but I can’t complain here because it’s just so intricate and unique that I feel that if you’re going to buy one minifig from Series 10, the Medusa is the one you should get. Too bad there’s only 2 of her in each box so that’s gonna make her quite hard to find. Abraham Lincoln | Calamity Drone | Gail the Construction Worker | Hard Hat Emmet | Larry the Barista | Marsha Queen of the Mermaids | Mrs. Scratchen-Post | Panda Guy | President Business | Scribble-Face Bad Cop | Taco Tuesday Man | Velma Staplebot | “Where are my Pants?” Guy | Wild West Wyldstyle | Wiley Fusebot | William Shakespeare This is the third series that is released in May. The first being was 8683 Minifigures Series 1 and second being 8831 Minifigures Series 7.

Notice how there are 17 minifigs in the lineup, as compared to the 16 of previous editions? Lego decided to commemorate the 10th Series by including Mr. Gold, a “super rare”, excruciatingly hard to find minifig into random boxes of Series 10, which sparked a global gold rush among Lego fans, eager to get their hands on Mr. Gold. Only 5,000 of the chrome gold painted minifigs were created and I’ve been extremely fortunate to find one myself, which I’ve written about extensively in a post here, so I won’t go into too much detail about him. Alien Trooper | Carpenter | Classic King | Disco Diva | Egyptian Warrior | Evil Wizard | Fencer | Galaxy Trooper | Goblin | Hot Dog Man | Lady Cyclops | Paleontologist | Samurai | Sheriff | Snake Charmer | Unicorn GirlEach Minifigure includes unique character accessories, a display stand with LEGO studs and a Series 10 collector's leaflet With the release of more LEGO based movies Such as NINJAGO LEGO Batman and The LEGO Movie 2 many new Minifigure series followed. With a 40th anniversary edition released for Series 18 LEGO collectors were going crazy with some of the new amazing designs, the only problem being that there was just 1 rarer Minifigure which was so hard to get a hold of which was the Classic Policeman (one of the 1st LEGO Minifigures to ever be made!) How To Find One: The newspaper tile is a dead giveaway that you have a Grandpa on your hands. The cup is also a good way, but do note that the librarian also comes with a mug, so do verify that you’ve gotten a newspaper tile to differentiate Grandpa from the librarian.
