Digger of Bricks Posted January 11, 2020 Up until recently, LEGO Brand Stores' Build-A-Minifigure stations have only offered preexisting minifigure parts and prints from previously-released sets. In the past year though, they've become a great source for all-new recolors and prints, seemingly exclusive to LEGO Brand Stores. With newly-issued exclusive parts being discovered nearly on a monthly basis now, I thought I'd be fun to share our ideas and wishlists for such. So, what exclusive recolors and prints would you hope to see from LEGO's Build-A-Minifigure stations? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Green and Light Grey recolours of the updated CS helmet (For the Exo-Suit and Rocket Boy Minifigs, respectively). Light Grey airtanks. Unprinted PDG/Black and Dark Blue/Black legs (For First Order officers). Edited January 12, 2020 by Classic_Spaceman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vindicare Posted January 12, 2020 Hmm...the Harley Quinn hair from the LEGO movie version in a single regular hair color would be cool, I love that part. As far as torso prints, it would be fun to see prints of licenses they have, like a “9 3/4” maroon torso for HP. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Robert8 Posted January 12, 2020 Medium legs in any way Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
makoy Posted January 12, 2020 Here's what I can think of at the moment -- Light aqua surgical cap Faun Legs and also the faun headpiece with horns. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Karalora Posted January 12, 2020 Hobbit hair in black and blond. In general, hair pieces in new colors. They've done some of this already and I greatly appreciate it. Medium legs, as @Robert8 suggests. Mermaid tails in a wider array of colors. Top hat in metallic gold or pearl gold. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Digger of Bricks Posted January 12, 2020 Here are just a few recolors I'd like to see... Traditional Aviator Cap (part no. 30171) in Dark Brown and complementary goggles (part no. 30170) in Titanium Metallic. Trapper Hat (part no. 36933) in either Dark Brown or Reddish Brown. Series 17 Retro Spaceman's helmet (part no. 33710) in Silver Metallic with Pearl Gold "ears" and crest. Series 17 Retro Spaceman's raygun (part no. 29601) in Silver Metallic, Titanium Metallic, and Copper Metallic. Superman's classic hairpiece (part no. 98726) in Reddish Brown and Dark Bluish Grey. Series 9 Hollywood Starlet's hairpiece (part no. 11256/34283) in Black, Dark Brown, Dark Orange, and Medium Nougat. Tina Goldstein's Hat/Hair piece (part no. 28271) in Olive Green/Medium Nougat and Lavender/Cool Yellow. TLM2 Apocalypseburg Abe's Hat/Beard piece (part no. 50044) in Reddish Brown/Earth Orange with Green-tinted goggles. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aurore Posted January 12, 2020 (edited) Like @Robert8 and @Karalora, I'd definitely love to see medium legs. Also, recolored animals such as : - Reddish brown, black and light bley bunnies, - Reddish bown, black and medium nougat chickens, - Reddish brown chihuahua, - Dark bley and white rats, - Light bley and white mouses, - Medium nougat and dark red small birds, - Black seagull (as a crow). And Padmé's long braided hair in medium nougat and/or dark orange. Edited January 12, 2020 by Aurore Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Digger of Bricks Posted January 12, 2020 (edited) If there was one particular type of torso design I'd hope to see made available as a Build-A-Minifigure exclusive, it'd be a Rocketeer-inspired, bibbed, double-breasted leather jacket. Be it in Black, Reddish Brown, Dark Brown, Earth Blue, or Dark Red, it does seem to be the quintessential outerwear style for your archetypical Pulp Era hero...

lifeinplastic Posted January 13, 2020 (edited) DJ hair (with headphones) in blonde Classic flowers in purple and orange (not the current 'blocky' flowers) All cutlery (knife, fork and spoons) in a grey or even better, metallic grey Other colours of sports team players (e.g. American footballer, Ice Hockey, Baseball, Footballer) Cheerleaders with every letter of the alphabet and new colours of pompoms Alternative 'golf' torso (like President Business) Christmas Jumpers Christmas Elf Helper's hats, torso and legs New coloured scarf pieces Black round-neck T-Shirt torso print (with short sleeves) Edited January 14, 2020 by lifeinplastic Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Karalora Posted January 13, 2020 Torso prints I would like for my own completely selfish purposes (Note--with a couple exceptions, these are vanishingly unlikely to happen): Black polo shirt (short sleeves!) with black/blue striped necktie Medium azure polo shirt with gray cardigan knotted around shoulders White dress military jacket with gold braid and red sash Black hoodie with purple patches and noticeable white stitching on seams Dark brown collared tunic with frog closures and piping-style trim, both in yellow Black dress military jacket with silver braid and lime-green sash Black leather jacket over plain white tee shirt Tan sport coat with pink necktie (If these sound familiar to anyone...yes, I am that weird.)

I'm a big fan of the YouTuber Thomas Sanders (he actually got famous on Vine; you might remember him as the "Storytime!" guy) and those designs reflect the costumes of the characters he plays in his videos.

Digger of Bricks Posted January 15, 2020 Just a few ideas here for some unprinted dual-molded legs (standard height) that I'd like to see... Black with Dark Green (i.e. "Classic" Green) boots (for Green Lantern Corps, of course). Light Bluish Grey with Black boots (hip piece in LGB, not Black). Olive Green with either Reddish Brown or Dark Brown boots. Light Bluish Grey or Dark Bluish Grey with Earth Blue boots. Tan (i.e. Brick Yellow) with either Reddish Brown or Dark Brown boots. 1 hour ago, Karalora said: I'm a big fan of the YouTuber Thomas Sanders (he actually got famous on Vine; you might remember him as the "Storytime!" guy) and those designs reflect the costumes of the characters he plays in his videos.

Karalora Posted January 15, 2020 Yeah, it's a very niche interest, but the less outlandish concepts (the polo shirts and modern jackets) have a chance of seeing daylight at least. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Masked Mini Posted January 16, 2020 (edited) I want a ducking Corgi already! Or to be precise a Cardigan Corgi because that's what we have. But I'd settle for a Pembroke or Welsh. For the same reason … a Weimaraner! I need brick simulacra of my fuzzbutts so we can have brick adventures together too.

Karalora Posted January 16, 2020 We need some kind of large floppy-eared dog, for sure. I don't know about the rest of you but I have to give TLG the side-eye for trying to pass off a perky-eared dog as a "Dalmatian" in some recent sets. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TeriXeri Posted January 16, 2020 (edited) Some re-release of the Monkey would be nice either via Xtra (standard reddish brown) or BAM (different colors) Monkey hasn't been seen since 2011 in regular color, or 2016 in Ninjago Sky Pirates, and there are so many more suitable colors now.
