I don’t know if you’ve been updated on LEGO minifigures, arguably the best LEGO development since the LEGO Crossbow Pistol. They consist of different series of figures, much like the other collectible vinyl toys found through Kidrobot, The Loyal Subjects, Coarse and now even Disney. Each character comes with his or her own story and […]
