At the beginning of the year, LEGO released a new series of collectible minifigures with some adorable characters. So, let’s take a look at LEGO Minifigures Series 25!
The series comes with the following 12 collectible characters: the Triceratops Costume Fan, the Sprinter, the Film Noir Detective, the Train Kid, the Goatherd, the Vampire Knight, the Pet Groomer, the Fitness Instructor, the E-Sports Gamer, the Mushroom Sprite, the Fierce Barbarian, and the Harpy.
Each of the characters is highly detailed and comes with accessories. Take a look at the tiny train of the Train Kid (and he also comes with a cute cap). The Goatherd brings back the ultra-rare goat mould that previously only appeared in a single set. The Vampire Knight is armored with the old shield and helmet design from the 1980s. The Pet Groomer introduces a brand new dog. The Sprinter comes with prosthetic legs. And the Mushroom Sprite wears an adorable mushroom costume and also comes with a pretty butterfly. In the video below, you can see all 12 characters in detail.
Please note that the minifigures are no longer in packets, but in small cardboard boxes, so we can’t feel what’s inside each packet as we used to be able to. Some LEGO fans figured out a way to identify them by weight, and halfway through production LEGO also implemented scannable QR codes to help fans identify the minifigures (the codes differ by region). You can find the minifigures at local retailers, official LEGO stores, and the Online LEGO Shop. The Online LEGO Shop sells them both individually and as a six-pack. Both listings are available at the LEGO Minifigures section of the Online LEGO Shop.

With Valentine’s Day coming up next week, let’s take a look at some of the cute LEGO sets that you can share with your Valentine. And I also wanted to share a custom project you could build for your special someone, designed by super-talented LEGO fan Jason Allemann (a.k.a. JKBrickWorks).
Currently, available LEGO sets for Valentine’s Day include the cute #40711 LEGO Hedgehog Picnic Date for $12.99, the #40638 LEGO Heart Ornament for $12.99, the beautiful #10328 LEGO Bouquet of Roses for $59.99. There are also several other LEGO sets with flowers that would be suitable for the occasion, like the #40725 LEGO Cherry Blossoms, the #40460 LEGO Roses, the #40647 LEGO Lotus Flowers, the #40747 LEGO Daffodils, and the #40524 LEGO Sunflowers, all for $14.99 each. Another cute set is the #10329 LEGO Tiny Plants for $49.99. You can find them all at the Valentine’s Day Gift Ideas section of the Online LEGO Shop.
LEGO is also currently offering a Valentine’s Day-themed gift-with-purchase set. The #40579 LEGO Valentine’s Day Love Gift Box features a Shiba Inu dog, a heart-shaped chocolate box, a heart balloon, and flowers. You can get this set with purchases of $75 or more until February 14th at the Online LEGO Shop.
As far as the custom Valentine’s Day project by Jason Allemann, take a look at this red beating heart that ‘beats’ when you turn a crank in the back. You can see a demonstration of it in action in the video below. If you’re interested in building it yourself, you can download a parts list and free building guide at Jason’s website, JKBrickWorks.com. A full build kit with all the parts and instructions is also available from BuildaMOC.com.
I hope this list gives you some Valentine’s Day building ideas! And feel free to share additional ideas in the comment section below!
