Collection: Minifigures

What are LEGO Minifigures?

A LEGO Minifigure, also known as a LEGO Minifig, is a small plastic figure representing a character in one of the LEGO theme worlds. These figures are often referred to as LEGO People by fans, as they bring LEGO creations to life. First produced in 1978 by the Danish LEGO Company, LEGO Minifigures have become increasingly popular as children's toys, and some have even become valuable collectibles and investments. According to National Geographic Kids, there are around 4 billion Minifigures worldwide, and LEGO produces approximately 340 million new ones every year.

What LEGO Minifigure Characters Exist?

The variety of LEGO People and Minifigures is virtually endless, ranging from generic characters like police officers, astronauts, and knights to famous licensed figures from popular movies and TV series such as Star Wars and Lord of the Rings. LEGO has also recreated beloved characters from video games like Super Mario. Whether you're a fan of classic LEGO People or hunting for specific characters, there’s a Minifigure for every interest and theme.

Where to Buy LEGO Minifigures Online?

Most LEGO People and Minifigures come as part of sets or polybags in the LEGO Minifigures series. However, acquiring a specific Minifigure often requires purchasing an entire set, which can be expensive if you're a dedicated collector. A more cost-effective solution is to buy individual LEGO Minifigures from specialized LEGO stores like Choose-a-Brick, where we offer a wide selection of loose LEGO People and Minifigures. You can also find second-hand LEGO Minifigures to add to your collection. If a specific LEGO figure is out of stock, simply leave your email on the product page, and we’ll notify you as soon as it’s available again.
