“Mickey Mouse is designed and built completely with factory Lego parts. The model stands 20cm tall and contains 33 points of articulation, including ball jointed ears and individually moveable fingers. Also included are the “Kingdom Key” Keyblade from Kingdom Hearts and the paintbrush from Epic Mickey.”

He has really put some time into this and it looks awesome.

I have always thought that Lego was missing the boat with not producing Disney Figures.  Disney has so many to produce and who would not want a full collection of Disney Collectible minifigures.  I just looked here to get an idea of the list of characters that they could produce and I see more than 950!!!

Even if Disney and Lego only produced one half of these, we would still have a potential for 450+ minifigures.  That is enough for about 20 series of them.  So. I am going to go out on  limb and predict that one of the collectible series coming up will be Disney at some time in the next year or two.

Lego is currently making a run with Disney in the Duplo line, but it does not contain any figures.

Lego did make a few sets for distribution at Disney Theme parks about ten years ago.  These contained a few (five) minifigures and I currently believe that these are some of the most undervalued minifigures of all time.

You can see a full set of them as well as the current prices here.

You can purchase the entire line of them for about $40-$50 dollars if you act fast.  If fact, if I were you I would.  It take a little time to find a nice set of them, but they are well worth it.

Here is a picture of my set of these.  They are a litte more like Fabuland figures than minifigures, but a very very nice addition to your collection.

However while you wait, you could create your own as in this lego ideas project.  These are brick built and they take a little bit of creativity, but very nice all the same.

Here is an original proff of concept from the beginning.  Not nearly as nice looking.  🙂

Another new minifigure was discovered on the Chinese auction site Taobao today.  It is an alternative Bain (Son of Bard) figure to add to our collection of Hobbit and Lord of the Rings minifigures.

This is the same guy that had the Star Wars polybag and the lightning lad figures last week, so it would appear that all of these are being produced in China as well.  I will keep checking back to see if we see any more of these over the next few days.

“Born during the late Third Age, Bain is a young Man of Dale, son to the famed Bard the Bowman and brother of Sigrid and Tilda. He helps his father in hiding the last Black Arrow while Bard is captured and imprisoned by the order of the master. He would eventually become King of Dale. He later had a son, Brand, who was killed during the War of Ring by the Easterling.”

This figure looks a little more authentic than the last one as the last one was a bright green color.  I will probably need to get it to complete my collection.  Darn you Lego.  I thought this line was finished.  I have already built my stand for this collection and it does not have any empty spaces.  I guess that I will need change it up a little.

I am not sure if this figure will have a double sided face like the last one, or if what we see is what we get with this one.

Here is the back, but it does not give us any clue as to what the face back will look like.

I really hope that they finish off a few of the other characters from the movies and the books.  They still have quite a few that they have missed.  Possibly some other exclusive at Walmart or Amazon?  I can only hope.

It looks like another DVD figure based on the packaging.    I would guess that this is for the Hobbit:  The battle of Five Armies movie when it is released on DVD.  Also, based on how this went down with the last movie, it is probably going to be a Target exclusive as well.  I wonder why the seller of this figure is not popping him out of the packaging?  It would seem that you would get a better picture if you did that?

Overall the Hobbit and Lord of the Rings minifigures have been one of the more reasonable lines to get all of the figures for since I do not believe that they sold that well either.  This is one line that I am certain will increase in value in short order since so many people are nuts about these books and movies.  Afterall, these are some of biggest movies ever produced.

Lego has been working overtime to get more and more exclusive figures out this year.  This is going to hurt my wallet.

OUCH!

Here is the other Bain FIgure.

He was part of this set.  Lego 76016 “Attack on Lake Town”.  He also appeared in the Lego The Hobbit video game.

Here are the other two DVD’s that target released with Hobbit and Lord of the Rings minifigures in them.  This one had Legolas.  Which ironically is also the name of my dogs mom.

Here is the Bilbo Baggins exclusive minifigure which you can still pick up on Amazon.  This one is usually on the top 100 most expensive since it’s release was so limited.  I have sent a few of these to fellow collectors overseas since they have not been able to easily obtain them.
