Mr. Men and Little Miss books are a fond and vivid memory from my childhood. I’ve just started reading them again thanks to the Agatha Christie crossover books (e.g. Muddle at the Vicarage). If you love these characters too, please consider supporting this LEGO Ideas product.

I've physically built the characters IRL, but as there are a few recolours, I've opted for digital renders. On a similar note, I designed the eyes and mouths to be a 50/50 combination of flat tiles (stickers) and curved slopes (prints).

Best wishes, Mr. Stubot 🟥🟡🟦

I might search for my log-in digits for ideas again. This is top notch.

The Mr. Men series in Dutch was my favorite series as a little kid. 
However i only like the old books. And only drawn by Hargreaves himself. Loved the series Timbuctoo as well. But there were only a few translated in Dutch. 
 

If you know someplace i can read all Timbuctoo stories i would be very thankful!

Thank you Borex! Mr. Tickle has offered you 100 free tickles as a thank you for the kind comment. Hope you’re not too tickly! 🟠

This had completely passed me by, but I'm definitely going to try and read some. I found this wiki that has the story text and amazing covers, including Dutch books.

Thanks! I will be checking it out. One of the coolest things about Timbuctoo was that all those animals lived in Timbuctoo, but for us in the Netherlands it was called Doedeliedam (doodly dam) like Amsterdam, Rotterdam, Schiedam and all those dams. And as a kid i would tell anyone that when i’d grow up i would live in Doedeliedam. 
 

have you tried building mr. messy by the way? That should be a hard one :-)

That's so cute, I like when they localise things. Doedeliedam is so fun to say!

I did contemplate it for a wee while, as he's so iconic. But as his design is random, I think it could end up being the worst building experience ever! 🙃

These are amazing @stubot! The characters are instantly recognisable and these all take me back to my childhood. Really great work :sweet:

Thank you! All the Mr.Men and Little Misses are chuffed to read your wonderful comment. Even Mr. Grumpy! 🟦

This is something I can get behind.

Also love your responses to people over on the Ideas page.

Cheers! Lol, it was fun trying to bring the characters into all aspects of this project.

Mr. Nosey has been reading all of these comments (of course) and he says yours is one of the best! Thank you for the support. 🟢
