Recommendation: meh 8.8 / 10 by WhiteFang

The LEGO Collectable Minifigures Series 7 has totally surpassed my expectations. I am extremely pleased to note that the Series 7 had done even better than I thought it will be, especially after I had physically fixed all of the minifigures together and during this period, we did not receive any other official or additional published images apart from the only single group picture which we had been seeing all this while since the leak, which I can definitely guarantee it is a form of misconception.

I recently bought the Lego VW bus, so it obviously needed a driver. Enter Lego Hippie! With a tie-dyed swirly shirt under a vest, bold purple pants, bright orange head band over long locks and blissed-out expression, who could better fit the bill? Great minifigure! Groovy.

Recommendation: meh 8 / 10 by Jay

So groovy. It really looks like Lego borrowed heavily from John Lennon and slapped a moustache on him to make it slightly more groovy (everyone knows you're not a real hippie till you grow a sweet stache/beard). The hair piece is great and really captures the hippie look down to the headband. They totally nail the facial expression, because man, the hippie does look kinda stoned. Throw in a totally rad 70s inspired tie-dye shirt design complete with hippie vest for the torso and you have yourself a winner.
