LEGO Minifigures Series 12 Figures Photo Revealed! WIZARD!

Usually the weekends are pretty slow as far as news goes, but on this lovely Saturday the peace has been broken by an earth-shattering photo revealing some of the minifigures from what will be for many the most anticipated release of the entire year! While we’ve had two 2014 LEGO Minifigures Series released already, both of those have been themed (LEGO Movie and LEGO Simpsons). But in October 2014, plain old LEGO Minifigures Series 12 71007 will finally arrive–and now we’ve got photos of the first six figures that make up that series, including a Wizard, a Battle Goddess, and even a Video Gamer!

71007 LEGO Minifigures Series 12 Figures October 2014

Seeing as how LEGO 71007 Minifigures Series 12 blind bags aren’t scheduled to ship until Q4 2014 and we’re still in Q2 2014, I really didn’t expect to see any of these figures revealed at all until San Diego Comic Con 2014.

But I guess the Japanese just couldn’t wait any longer, because a Japanese LEGO Catalog posted by legojapan  has not only confirmed the previous leaked list of LEGO Minifigures Series 12 figures, but also revealed the first half-dozen figures that will make up this year’s only set of non-themed LEGO Minifigures Series figures!

LEGO Minifigures Series 12 Wizard FigureFirst up, we’ve got the LEGO Wizard Minifigure. LEGO has done plenty of wizards over the years in the LEGO Castle and LEGO Harry Potter themes, but I can’t recall a dead-ringer for Disney’s Merlin being done before now! He looks terrific, and while I’m not a big wizard guy, I am a big Disney guy. The LEGO Merlin Minifigure is a must have for me!

71007 LEGO Minifigures Series 12 Space MinerNext, it’s the LEGO Minifigures Series 12 Space Miner! When I read the leaked list for LEGO 71007, I was wondering what the heck a “Space Miner” was. I thought it might be a bad translation, but lo and behold, this exactly what I would expect a space miner to look like! I don’t know if this is necessarily a minifigure that I need, but the design is sort of fun.

LEGO Minifigures Series 12 Swashbuckler Figure 71007The LEGO Minifigures Series 12 Swashbuckler minifigure is quite a dashing fellow! I foresee a lot of LEGO fans buying up multiples of this figure and doing head swaps to create their own LEGO Three Musketeers!

LEGO Minifigures Series 12 Battle Goddess & Dino Tracker Minifigures

We get to see two powerful female LEGO Minifigures in this photo for the first time too: the LEGO Minifigures Series 12 LEGO Battle Goddess minifigure and the LEGO Dino Tracker minifigure! I was very surprised that the LEGO Dino Tracker figure is a female, but she looks tough as nails and I love her crossbow.

Meanwhile, the step-like sloped dress of the LEGO Battle Goddess is too cool! With a detailed shield, helmet and spear, the LEGO Battle Goddess minifigure comes close to being my favorite figure revealed in this set so far!

LEGO Minifigures Series 12 Video Game Guy Gamer FigureOf course, hands-down, my favorite figure in 71007 LEGO Minifigures Series 12 right now is the LEGO Gamer (LEGO Video Game Guy). It’s like me as a LEGO figure! With a classic video game controller, headphones and a “Player 1” shirt, I downright love the LEGO Video Game Guy minifigure.

I’ll post an update here and to the Bricks and Bloks Facebook Page when photos of the rest of LEGO Minifigures Series 12 71007 are available, and you can ‘Like’ Bricks and Bloks on Facebook to have more new and photos sent right to your Facebook Newsfeed!

What are your first impressions of the LEGO 71007 Minifigures Series 12 blind bags set, LEGO fans? Anything in this series that you’re drooling over?

    • it’s because the minifigures are shown under the simpson minifigure series in the catalog

  2. im deinitely getting 2 of that wizard (the blue wizards mentioned by gandalf in the hobbit unexpected journey), am i the only one who thinks the dino tracker looks like something out of a lego zombie apcalypse?

  3. Normally I like the CMF so I can build people for my lego city, but some of these are AWESOME. Looking forward to the other twelve.
