The Lego mini figure is one of the most identifiable toy and mini figurine on earth. The present modern minifigures were launched in 1978. Seven of these minifigs accompanied the initial three classic play themes of Castle, Town and Space and Lego has not looked back ever since then.
The initial Lego minifigs were produced with simple facial expressions with 2 dots making the eyes and a smile. Their bodies were single colored. Later developments from Lego include having different facial expressions, headgear and accessories like helmets and caps, varied limbs like hooks and pegs in another classic, the Pirates series. A whole series of accessories to the basic Lego minifig model followed, with horses for example, and items that the minifig can hold in their hands like swords, bows and worktools.
The modular design of Lego allows the customization of many minifigs. For example in recent years, there have been tie-ups to produce Lego minifigs from the star wars franchise and the harry potter series to name a few. It’s estimated that there were 3.7 BILLION Lego minifigs in the world in 2003!
