Lego is not only the nifty little blocks you can use to make just about everything- but now they have these little figures that are really fun, and come in lots of varieties. That is awesome! Now my husband, I mean my kids, 😛 can put all kinds of little people (and monsters, this is an equal oppertunity home) in the futuristic Egyptian castle space-port. While fishing and surfing- of course! 🙂
Long gone are the two, or maybe three faces on the plain yellow head with a brightly colored shirt and yellow legs. Now, in stores is the minifigures line of toys. We have a n assortment of them- and they are inexpensive and easy to keep in your purse for a bribery moment of quiet on a long car ride from hades, or that shopping trip that won’t end. Come on- you know you keep toys in your purse, don’t lie! LOL
Each package contains one figure with accessories. By accessories, I don’t necessarily mean a sword or a cape. I mean, the surfer girl comes with an awesome surf board and a stand to display her on, as well as the lego smirk and of course can be deconstructed to be swapped out with any other minifig parts. What this means is surfer girl can have a haz mat helmet on and hold an axe, of course with the smirk still intact.
Legos are a great toy, kid friendly, non violent, educational, helps with creative thinking. NOT for your very little kids, of course! Daddy insisted I add this- he wrote these lines, and they HAVE to be added to the review according to him-
“Little Man likes to make totems of the minifigs. Not so much a grotesque lego parts monster, just a few of them stacked one of top of the other, kind of a awkward way for 4 minifigs to change a light bulb.
I- Daddy- love the little figs too, my personal favorite is either the lawn gnome, or the crazy scientist of course. Now if only there was an odd beer brewer minifig I’d be set.”
Sigh. Ok, see why I had to explain that Daddy wrote that last part? This is what I live with. 🙂
But these are really fun, and dad and Little have been having a blast with them!
Have fun, and happy building! 🙂
I think its great that they decided to bring them out besides just in the sets. This way you can really mix and match.
Lego people are so cute! 🙂 I too like that you can get more people without buying kits and sets – cute for like little gift or stocking stuffer for a lego lover! 🙂
Thats cool that you can just buy the people and not a whole set!
Well I’m going out to day to buy myself a Lawn Gnome.
I’ve never heard of these before. We love Legos, so these would probably be a hit…with my hubby. LOL!
Thats a pretty cool idea. I like that they are individualized – not in a package. You can mix and match!
That Fishing Man is funny
i didn’t know they made them aside from with playsets
not with a playset? that is unusual
Super cute! I think I like the lawn gnome too. ahh the little touches makes Legos great!
