Special Minifigures- What Do You Want Next?

[MagPiesRUs]

In addition to some of the other suggestions, I'd love to see...

1. Mexican bandito (Complete with sombrero and poncho, this would be perfect )

2. Queen's Royal Guard (I'd love an official bearskin hat - although it may be too soon for another redcoat.)

3. Reggae artist (Because we need some lego dreadlocks )

4. Inuit

5. Hippy (The clown hairpiece would work well on this guy.)

6. Arabian wanderer/explorer/trader (To me, that AT-ST helmet is just screaming to be used for one of those middle-eastern headdresses.)

7. Mime

8. 15th Century Explorer (I'm thinking of a Marco Polo/Columbus type figure. I'd really like one of those medieval caps.)

I'd love some Victorian figures,and maybe an 80's businessman.

[Athos]

A Catholic Bishop.

Steve

[Torax]

Someone mentioned monks, and that would be awesome.

Not only Christian monks though; a Buddhist Monk minifig would also be cool.

And also Holy women/men from other religions.

Sorry, this isn't the place to discuss religion, but I think it would be an awesome possibility.

Anyway, I would also like a kid - just a regular kid. Short legs, and the accessory would be some sort of toy. (Minifig scaled)

I'll come back if come up with more!

After seeing the images of so-called "special collectible" minifigs (see here), I immediately thought of a few minfigs I'd love to see, obviously there would be issues preventing some of them, I was thinking more about awesome headgear/hair/printing/accessories

• Punk rocker with mohawk and electric guitar
  
• Vampire in the style of "Dracula" (it did come in one or two sets but it's a classic movie monster that a lot of people missed out on)
  
• Goth girl (ok, a silly idea but I'd love one)
  
• Roman legionnaire (or centurion, but I think legionnaire is better if you end up with a few of them )
  
• Minfigures in some of the more distinctive traditional costumes of nations (although what if their "skin" is a colour not usual to that nation?... )
  
• A pope, archbishop or similarly grand-looking priest (But would the kids dig it? )
  

What "special collectible" minfigs would you love to see?

Welcome to Eurobricks, Nice thread idea but this topic has already been started and it's only a few threads down from the minifig thread you referance in your post.

http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=35889

[hewkii9]

A couple ones I'd like to see -

Saracen [Crusades]

Crusader [Historical, not the theme]

David Bowie

[David Thomsen]

[*]Minfigures in some of the more distinctive traditional costumes of nations (although what if their "skin" is a colour not usual to that nation?... )

I learned the word 'dirndl' last night. I was already familiar with the costume, just not the name. I'd love to see a minifig in a dirndl.

[*]A pope, archbishop or similarly grand-looking priest (But would the kids dig it? )

A lot of people of people have suggested religious minifigs... the Town Plan set had two people getting married at a town hall rather than a church, I think that's an indication of how unlikely Lego are to proceed down a religious pathway.

If they ever had an bishop, they'd alienate everyone of a religion that isn't Catholic... not good for sales.

I'd like

A witchdoctor

A classic space alien

A Vampire

Frankenstein (Most wanted on my list)

an Arabic thief (You know wrappings around the mouth, turban, funny shoes.)

An Eskimo

An Egyptian jackal warrior

A hobo

A Mad scientist

A mutant/lizard man

A modern fabuland fig.

[lisqr]

So now that we've seen the first mini-figure series, time to guess (or wish) what the second series is going to contain.

I would like to see:

an elf with a bow and a new flower piece (maybe)

an imp with a black trident

an angel with a trumpet (together with the imp and some thought bubble makes a great scene)

a programmer in a free tshirt with a laptop

a kung fu master in a Nunchaku

I think we will see:

a wizard or witch

some kinda space sci fi figure

a pirate theme figure

What's your guess or wish?

We already have this topic for what minifigures you want in the next series of collectable minifigures.

EDIT: Oops, I put the link on the wrong word!

Oops. My bad, didn't see that.

[filip skywalker]

Karate figure?

I'd love that! If he would have a brown belt torso print, I could use him as my personal photo!

Seriously, I mean it. :skull:

EDIT: Perhaps a mod could merge this with the other topic?

TLG could also do a world series set:

UK: British policeman with helmet

Japan: Geisha Girl

Spain: Matador?

Spain: Senorita

etc

Something synonymous to the Country in question

[Steel Dragon]

An Eskimo

A hobo

Seconded!

I personally want an Islander most, or a redux of the original space suits... maybe in new colors? (orang, purple, lime, grey...)

How about.....

that enough thinking for the moment.....I'm a conformist! !

Yes boss.

[RileyC]

Sok117 you have some really great ideas on your list. The ones Im not sure about on your list are the hockey player and the gorilla. The hockey player wouldnt be as popular overseas as it would in north america. The gorilla would be kinda impractical but still pretty awesome

[brickme]

Personally I would love a president's series just think of george's hair! Anyway I'd like to see some geek squad members and possibly some ... Oh let's just say... The next fad of bluecoats... GREEN coats. And no fallentomato I do not need any comments about how greencoats are evil.
