Minifigures - general discussion

The question asked here is: "What character do you think will be or would like to see in a future Minifigure Series?"

If you are not sure what all has been done then this thread should help.

First off, I have noticed whenever Lego designs a male character in one series, they usually create a female counterpart in another, and vice versa. (Caveman / Cave Woman, Spaceman / Intergalactic Girl, Maraca Man / Flamenco Dancer, etcetera.) Judging from this pattern, here are ones that could get a male/female equal. The first name is the official minifigure while the following one is the idea.

Tribal Hunter / Tribal Huntress

Bandit / Lady Bandito

Magician / Magic Helper, Sorceress

Ninja / Ninja Princess, Kunoichi

Zombie / Living Dead Girl

Witch / Warlock

Vampire / Vampire Bride

Elf / Elven Queen

The Monster / Bride of the Monster

Gangster / Swingin' Dame

Bride / Groom

Ocean King / Mermaid, Nereid, Naiad, Sea Nymph, Undine -SERIES 9-

Hippie / Flower Child

Santa / Mrs. Claus

Pirate Captain / Pirate Girl, Buccaneer

Lederhosen Guy / Dutch Girl -SERIES 11-

Another pattern that I have noticed from time to time are redesigns or recolors. (Robot (light grey)/Evil Robot (black/dark grey), Cheerleader (blue)/Red Cheerleader) Here are some that I believe will make some good ones (or maybe even inevitable).

Football Player / Red Football Player

Super Wrestler / Pro Wrestler Not official but Lord Business' Evil Lair has a red Luchador type character.

Evil Dwarf / Heroic Dwarf

Evil Knight / Heroic Knight -SERIES 9-

Ninja / Ninja Master, Shinobi

Samurai Warrior / Shogun, Ronin

Boxer / Blue Boxer Team GB probably has the closest we'll ever see to this.

Also, any of the music and space themed characters have a decent chance of getting recolored or slightly redesigned down the road from the looks of a couple of the accessory packs from Shop-at-Home.

To finish off, here are a few original ideas that we haven't seen yet but I would like to toss out there.

Royal King

Orc Lord, Orc Warrior, Orc King ;)

Basketball Player

Egyptian Guard

SWAT, Riot Cop

Medusa, Lamia -SERIES 10-

Crusader, Templar

G-Man

Biker

Cyborg

Train Conductor, Train Engineer

Musician -SERIES 11-

Bard, Minstrel

Mutant

Private Eye

Miner

Ranger, Rogue

Superhero, Super Villian

Bounty Hunter, Tracker

Martian

Crook, Thief, Criminal, Brigand

Cruiseship Captain, Sea Captain -SERIES 10-

Dancer

Scholar, Teacher, Tutor, Professor

Warrior -SERIES 11-

First Mate, Ship Mate

Judge, Magistrate -SERIES 9-

Wizard, Mage, Sorcerer, Conjuror

Harpy

Headless Horseman

Mr. Hyde -SERIES 9-

The Invisble Man

Imp, Gremlin, Goblin

Dullahan, Headless (Cursed) Knight

Grim Reaper

Deputy Marshall, Sheriff

Cavalry Soldier, Cavalry Captain

Alien Bug, Galactic Bug

Undercover Cop, Secret Agent

Garbage Collector

City Worker

Beast Warrior

Tengu

Note:

I posted all these ideas before the release of Series 9 meaning a few of them have now been done officially by Lego. I simply crossed those entries out and added which series it was released in while leaving them here for posterior of the topic in the future. Anyway, I can add in anybody else's ideas to the list here at the bottom for easy viewing.

  • This series looks great. The goat and that Knight will be super popular. Expect to find many open boxes .

  • My Top 3 of the latest series. Going to need a lot of #1 The Falconer.   

  • Time for the powers of the internet to publish a weight table for each minifig, so we can take our milligram scales and our 16-pocket sorters to the store ….

I'd love to see He-Man and the Masters of the Universe characters by LEGO. Heck, I might even sell my action figure collection if they did. :)

Since I'm a big sports fan, I would really like to see licensed sports teams. My personal dream is to see Wrigley Field in Lego.

I love how half of your ideas are in series 9! I want an old lady in a wheel chair with knitting needles, hunter with shotgun, coal miner, ground-hog suit guy, goat suit guy, cow suit guy, dog/cat suit guy, the possibilities are limitless!!!!!!!!!!!

A ground hog suit guy would look so great!!!

How about a lion suit guy?...

They just made an old man, what about an old lady? With a cane or a walker. Haha!

The Pope.. LOL

You know we all want a Stan Lee minifig.....

Would like to see a Maxi figure like the Rancor for the Stay Puft Marshmallow man from Ghostbusters with double sided head for happy and angry mode (along with the rest of the Ghostbusters lineup)

I love the ghostbusters idea

Being that I'm a big fan of martial arts movies, I would love to see an official Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan, Jet Lee, Chuck Norris, etc minifig. Maybe they'll make a series dedicated to that one day. One can dream. 

I love these genaric threads. :) Who else but... CHUCK NORRIS!!!!!!!!!!!!! ;)

A second that. And a Bruce Lee so they can rumble.

I always said The Terminator would be cool. And an all silver bad guy chasing him. A Yakuza would be bad butt. A Street Fighter Minifig line would be sooooo awesome. Imagine a Blanka the size of the Hulk and you can fold him into a ball and roll him. WOW!!!

My wife votes Downton Abbey. (WTF?)

i vote back to the future. They already got the delorean. Its a clean film. But its dated.

Perhaps official companies. UPS fedex Usps American Airlines. Lowes Air Force pilot etc..

I love sets like that. LEGO should link up with other companies more often. If they can do it with Shell, Ferrarri, Maersk, and TRU, they can do it with FedEx. (Great idea, by the way. I'd love to see a FedEx truck as a set. LEGO's already done TRU truck. Not that I've ever, ever seen one of them on the streets, but whatever.)

I wouldn't mind a minifigure of some Pokemon characters like Pikachu. Also would like to have a George Washington and Napoleon minifigure.

That would be cool, although I think some other company has Pokemon...

Lebowski "The Dude"

bill clinton

How about a mass produced chrome golden minifigure that resembles the Monopoly Man, and has a cane with a diamond handle, spectacles, and a top hat?

 

Or Greedo. Another one.

I thought it would be cool to have a thread were members can share there favorite minifigs.  Here are a couple of my favorites (pics from brickset):

 

Achu from the adventures theme.  The cape on this figure is awesome.

Next, the Mouth of Sauron.  Love the face printing and helmet on him.

Its hard to single out 1 MOST favorite Minifig of LEGO.....

 

There is favorite in each theme/line and then even in different age....

 

But if i think of my childhood the figures I loved the most were

 

cas001.jpg

 

With those I played forever....

 

 

As for the collector in me these days.... Its hard to say:

 

LEGO-Lord-of-the-Rings-Boromir.jpg

 

He is definetly my favorite Character in my favorite book.... so it would be logical to include him but its hard to choose when next to him I have figs like:

Darth-Malgus.jpg
