Topic: Minifigure


  
  LEGO.com About Us - LEGO Company - PressRoom
The minifigure made it possible to create big play themes with storytelling and the children were able to build castles, populated with knights and maidens, and on board the pirate ships came real pirates with a patch over one eye, “wooden” legs and hooks.
Despite its size, the minifigure is actually something of a technical marvel.
During the first the years, the minifigure’s facial expressions were happy and neutral but with the launch of LEGO pirates in 1989 the figure got a variety of expressions: good or bad, happy or grumpy.

  Minifigure - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Minifigures are the small, plastic Lego people, who populate the Lego worlds.
Minifigures are composed of several separate parts: head, torso, arms, hands, hips and legs.
Minifigure heads are cylindrical, and attach to long narrow cylinder at the top of the torso, which allows the head to rotate.

Not content with that, the courageous minifigure is on it way to Mars: aboard the two Mars expeditions launched this summer were pictures of minifigures Biff and Sandy.
The LEGO minifigure may not be a physical giant but it is actually something of a technical marvel.
During the minifigure’s 25-year history details have been regularly modified down to a margin of a thousandth of a millimetre.

 Smiley - Brickwiki
The Yellow Smiley is the slang term for the standard minifigure head, having no decoration other than two fl dots for eyes and a simple fl curve for a smile.
From the first use of the modern minifigure in 1978 through the late 1980's, every minifig themed set included only yellow smileys.
They were so common that they have become both cliche and classic for many ALEs who have collected over the years.

 Minifigure - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Examples include heads for Yoda, C3PO and Harry Potter goblin minifigures.
Some minifigs, such as Chewbacca, SpongeBob, and Ewoks, have head pieces that fit like ordinary heads, but also cover part of the torso, like the ghost mentioned above except the minifigure uses short or normal legs instead of a brick.
Child-friendly versions of minifigures, which are much more difficult to take apart, have also being designed.

 Legonian Measurement
The fundamental unit of length is the foot, roughly the length of a minifigure's unshot foot.
Under this scale, 1 stud is about 1 foot 1 inch long, and the average bald minifigure is a little over 5 feet 8 inches high.
On Earth, our metric system was devised by a cadre of revolutionaries bent on obliterating anything that reeked of having been devised prior to 1792.

The Bricksmith Minifigure Generator automates the immensely difficult process of assembling a virtual Lego figure.
Bricksmith uses the same file for defining what parts are available for minifigures as does the popular Windows LDraw editor MLCad.
However, in the event of an LDraw part library update, you will find an updated minifigure definitions file (called "MLCad.ini") at www.holly-wood.it/mlcad-en.html.

 cars - LEGO
Human figures with posable arms made an appearance in 1974 in "LEGO family" sets, which went on to become the biggest sellers at the time; in the same year, an early version of the "minifigure" miniature LEGO person was introduced, but it was not posable and had no face printed on its head.
Nevertheless, licensed series such as LEGO Star Wars and LEGO Harry Potter gave minifigures the personas of specific characters from their cinematic counterparts, but it wasn't until 2003, with the introduction of LEGO Basketball, that the palette of skin tones broadened to include more lifelike colors.
Bricks, beams, axles, minifigures, and all other elements in the LEGO system are manufactured to an exacting degree of tolerance.

It represents Manchester's Amoskeag Millyard as it might have looked when it was the largest textile manufacturer in the world: it was commonly recognized as such by 1915.
The project was built at a scale of approximately 55:1, called minifigure scale, which means to match the proportions of the LEGO® minifigure people.

 Evil Mad Scientist Laboratories: How to hack LEDs into Lego minifigures for Halloween
It's remarkably easy to hack LEDs into Lego minifigures to make awesome, creepy, and tiny decorations for Halloween.
Since LEDs were already coming in 5 mm packages (also called T 1 3/4 packages) by the mid 1970's, it's clear that Lego minifigures were made to fit LEDs in their heads.
The pumpkin head was attached to this minifigure body, which was modified in the same way as the other body.

But as a little LEGO minifigure, he's pretty darn cute.
The blaster cannons on the front of the ship pivot up, but otherwise it's a pretty static set--not many moving parts, which may help it so it doesn't fall apart on you.
My only complaint with this LEGO set is that it really could have used another minifigure to go with it.

 Stair Climbing Rules - LEGO Robotics Group of Ann Arbor   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
If a robot is attempting to rescue a minifigure, the placement of said minifigure is entirely up to the builder.
The idea here is to have a minifigure on the top step, either on its own or on a sled or some sort of basket (all made from LEGO of course), waiting for the robot to climb up, find, and carry back down the stairs.
This portion of the challenge is fully ruleless and up to the builder to orchestrate.

Unlike the Space Theme, for which I've only done one minifigure, I can't even really claim that this minifigure is especially boat-y, since I never got around to modeling a life preserver for him.
The Boats Theme, as used by LEGO, only refers to that subset of boat models which float.
I have modeled some boat-like structures in the Pirates Theme, and I eventually plan to do the ship models.
