Rogue

I got this for my friend for a tabletop game we play (we use LEGO minifigs for minis) and he was basically a ranger in power armour, since we were using a duplicate Iron Man fig. When I saw this, I new I had to hunt for it, but by the time we got the funds to get one, they were discontinued. But this is much appreciated, especially with the guarantee that I'd get the one I want, and not 50 duplicates of a guy in a gorilla suit. more less

The mystery of opening each bag to see which new minifigure you're getting really ups the collectability factor of these LEGO minifigures. Kids will have fun trading each other for the figures they want and adding these cool and sometimes kooky characters to their LEGO sets. These minifigures have lots of fun details and accessories that make them great for keeping on display if you are a LEGO collector but they are also going to be lots of fun for kids to play with. Each one of these minifigures has a rich backstory just waiting for imaginative kids to tell it. more less

The parts assortment are outstanding. Apart from the standard quiver and bow, the main highlight was the new headgear that has an unique blend of ninja and ranger mask combined together. The torso is well designed with the arms showing a brown glove holding the arrow and the other hand holding the bow. It is great that the designer pay such fine attention to it. The overall design is easily customisable for mix and match with Lord of The Rings and The Hobbit elves. more less

LEGO continues to crank out some amazing minifigures for the Collectible Minifigures theme and Series 16 isn't an exception. There are a number of minifigures that really catch my eye like the Mariachi, Rogue, and Hiker. Of course, who doesn't like the costumed characters like the Banana Guy, Penguin Boy, and the Cute Little Devil. There are also some fairly bland characters for me like the Scallywag Pirate, and the Desert Warrior but they do make good army builders. more less

I'm a big fan of the Rogue for these nostalgic reasons, as well as the fact that it's a really well designed minifigure. I'll definitely amass a number of Rogues for my own personal army. more less

Each of the 16 figures is unique, and like previous non-licensed series, the minifigs are from themes as disparate as babysitters to pirates. The color for Series 16 is yellow, and the vibrant banana-suit guy seems to be the mascot for this series. more less

For me, the stand out figures include the Hiker, the Wildlife Photographer, the Penguin kid, the Rogue, the Banana Guy, and yes, the Babysitter. Honestly, there aren't many figures that I don't like this time around - perhaps the spy, spooky guy, and the cyborg are the only weak links to an otherwise solid line-up. I don't think this is the best minifigure series ever - but it certainly is solid from top to bottom (which is great for someone who feels the need to collect every figure whether I like them or not)! more less
