The Harry Potter themed sets have a good range of minifigs with them. To be honest, I’m not a big Harry Potter fan, and have only seen about 80% of the first film, but the mini figures are pretty cool, and have some good features that could be used for building custom figures.
This is one [...]

Right, after my slight error with what I thought could have been an Indiana Jones minifig, there’s no denying who this is. It’s another minifig that makes use of some great headgear to really make the character look right.
It’s Bib Fortuna, Jabba’s messenger from Star Wars VI Return of the Jedi.

Bit of an ugly figure [...]

This post over at Fresh Pics shows you that with a little creativity and a bit of mixing and matching with your existing LEGO mini figures, you can create anyone!
Creating these type of characters was one of the reasons I got back into LEGO, but up to now I haven’t created a great deal that [...]

Now I’m not too sure which set this minifig comes from or if it indeed is an Indiana Jones LEGO mini figure, but it does look like him. It could be a hybrid I’ve picked up from ebay along the way, as it could possibly be a Han Solo body… maybe, although I’m not so [...]

Here is another of my favourite LEGO Star Wars minifigs, although it’s a character that doesn’t feature a great deal in the films. It’s the Emperor’s Royal Guard and like the Darth Vador mini figure, it’s the head gear that makes it so good in my opinion.

The red stands out really well too, which is [...]

Obe Wan is one of the star wars mini figures that has several different versions. If you go through from Episode I - The Phantom Menace, you get the young Obe Wan, then in Episode II - Attack of the Clones you get this version, with beard. There are also hooded versions too which I [...]

While we are on the subject of Boba Fett, here is the young Boba mini figure. Notice the shorter legs to make him shorter than a standard minifig, as he’s a kid. The legs don’t move though like the normal legs on a lego figure.
This, again, was one of the rarer figures a while ago, [...]

This was one of the first figures that rekindled my interest in LEGO and started off my obsession fascination with LEGO minifigs and was one of the first in my collection of around 200 figures (at the time of writing).
This is one of those figures that has magnets in it’s legs and the body is [...]

Jango Fett is one of the rarer minifigs as it doesn’t appear in many sets. It was only a short while ago that the Jango Fett figure was fetching up to £40 on ebay for just the figure. I think either more sets are available now, or LEGO might be producing more of the figures [...]

The LEGO Star Wars themed sets have produced some of my favourite minifigs so far. While they’ve still got the LEGO look, the characters they are representing from the film are easily distinguishable.
Darth Vadar, one of the most iconic film characters ever (in my opinion), is a great little figure. Obviously the head gear is [...]
