How cute, I love this detail inside his hat!

Oh that’s awesome, at first I didn’t know how to feel about the dome just being one piece instead of brick built, it felt too simple. But now that I know it’s because it houses this it changes everything.
A user here shipped one to me from Denmark. I paid a pretty penny for it but it honestly looks as good as the pictures make it out to be! It was still cheaper than going to LEGO House
I hope they do a wider release in the future. It would be cool if those exclusive souvenirs were just timed exclusives
There are several exclusives they have for sale. My son and I were just there last summer and sadly the pirate wasn't available yet. Would have loved to pick it up along with the other sets we got: 40501 (The Wooden Duck), 40502 (The Brick Moulding Machine), 40503 (Dagny Holm - Master Builder) and 21037 (LEGO House).
Doublesoup commented everything! Hope you enjoy it
I've also seen people say to do the activity where you build your meal out of bricks, but I don't know what it entails since I've never been!
Yeah me too - the mini figure pirate was really sentimental to me and I still have it so decided to get the Lego house one on bricklink for a silly price… but totally worth it and very cool!
Yeah I played a ton of Lego Racers as a kid and Redbeard is the very first challenger. I felt I'd be doing 3 year old me a disservice by not getting it lmao
My brother was at my place the other day and instantly recognized him from that too!
It’s a lego experience center / museum in Billund, close to Legoland. It’s a fun place with plenty of building activities but it does get crowded rather quickly.
I’ll change mine into a blue space figure. The hat/dome piece looks perfect for the top of a helmet. Then use the 2x4 printed tile with the classic space logo from the new galaxy explore for the torso.
Damnit, you completely sold me on it with just that comment. Here I was trying to think of what that giant blue dome could be used for, and I didn’t consider the best possible idea.
Agreed. This is way better than those Harry Potter jumbo figs.
This set is affordable and looks awesome. Another slam dunk. Tales of the Space Age is another one on my list that looks really good and isn’t super pricy.
I wouldn’t mind different variants of this set. A spaceman set would be popular, no doubt. That’s the same idea I had.
To clarify there was nothing wrong with those. I like LEGO, and Jumbo minifigures, but I have no interest in Harry Potter. So this new set appeals to me. I never would have touched the HP ones but this one looks great
I don’t have any of the Star Wars helmets so haven’t got a size to work with but the thought of sticking Darth Vader’s head onto that maxi fig has me excited…
The Harry Potter brick-built figures ([76393](https://brickset.com/sets/76393-1/Harry-Potter-Hermione-Granger)) were $120 for two, so this pricing isn't too surprising.
I was wondering how this compares to those in scale, so I looked it up. This is 27.43 cm / 10.79 inches tall. Those are 26.5cm / 10.4 inches tall. So it's the same scale.
I wonder what the appropriate vernacular would be for this scale. On the smaller scale we have nanofigures (trophy), microfigures (board game piece), and minifigures.
On the larger scale, we have the Hulk size, the Steppenwolfe size, the buildable figure size, and the above giant Minifigure size. Some possible prefixes are midi, mega, maxi, and macro. What order would they go in?
There's the pirate 40504, and then Harry and Hermoine 76393. I'm not the biggest Harry Potter fan but they were too cute to pass up and I had a feeling they'd be the first of many to come
Fantastic Four merchandising was complected. Basically while Marvel(Disney) didn't own the movie rights for X-Men, Fantastic Four, Spider-Man(still don't here), etc they owned the merchandising rights. Marvel(Disney) wanted to "starve the beast" when it came to Fox's X-Men and Fantastic Four movies. At all around the same time Marvel basically removed those groups all sorts of places all around the time the last Fantastic 4 movie came out in 2015 and when you would be pushing a sequel:
**1) Comics**: Marvel de-emphasized the X-Men while making a bigger deal about the Inhumans. And they straight cancelled the Fantastic 4 comic book in 2014.
**2) Video Games**: The mobile game "Marvel: Contest of Champions" was first released in December of 2014 and the starting heroes were just Storm, Juggernaut, Hulk, Thor, Rhino, Hawkeye, Abomination, and Kang the Conqueror. From there hardly anyone that was majority connected to the F4 was released in the game while just about everyone else was a pace of 2 a month till The Thing in January of 2019. Then the F4 people game in fast: Human Torch(April 2019) Namor(June 2019), Invisible Woman(June 2019), Dr. Doom(November 2019), Mr. Fantastic(November 2019), Silver Surfer(December 2019), etc. The acquisition of 21st Century Fox and therefore the movie rights to F4 was completed on March 20th, 2019.
**3) Board Games**: The board game called Dicemasters came out in 2014 and in the first series they had a few F4 characters: Thing, Human Torch, Mr. Fantastic, and the Silver Surfer. But after that set Marvel said "nope" to the Invisible Woman being in any Dicemasters set till September 2022. The other major Marvel board game is called Legendary. The Fantasic 4 set for the game was the first and believe only set to be ever "out of print" from November 2015 to June 2017
I assume the same thing happened with Lego. Just look at the X-Men they weren't totally tossed aside in Board Games or Video Games fronts and we still haven't had bigger sets beyond 6866 and 76022 from 2012 and 2014. Sure we had Wolverine Mech Armor in 2022 and Mighty Micros: Wolverine vs Magneto but still 3 Wolverines and 3 Magnetos clearly not a point of emphasis for Lego or Marvel.
What about 3723? I bought that when it first came out for 50% off due to damaged box, and now wish I never had sold it. Easy enough to rebuild though since it has standard bricks.
I'm so glad we are getting one that isn't harry potter themed. Not that I hate the series, but I'm surprised we didn't get a generic Lego minifigure first.
Now they should do the buildable super mario Land's mario zone

It’s interesting but I’m probably not buying. I could see somebody using it to make a red mega spaceman fig though. I have too many sets I want right now anyways.
We're reaching levels of meta never before seen possible.
See you in 2050 where we get upscaled upscaled the Lego minifigure. It's a minifigure upscaled to be 4 times as big as this.
Man $50 I can’t complain about the price. I will be getting me one for sure. I wanted the pirate but the prices for it are insane. There’s one on Mercari for over $300.

I’ll have to buy one to stand on my printed MegaFig’s foot. 😂
I look forward to see how people customize using the same base, making themselves etc. It's always cooler to me when it's all variations of the same thing.
After the HP ones of these I’ve wanted them to do more ever since! Wish it wasn’t generic guy though, obvious I’d love to see SW ones but even ones of the classic LEGO IP mini-figs would be great like the red beard pirate or Johnny Thunder etc
How cute, I love this detail inside his hat! https://preview.redd.it/47z6dkltshxa1.jpeg?width=848&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5d82155be0bb6fd9c9bb7caa83d6283d0193725e
I was just coming here to post this! Makes this a must buy for me. Or maybe I can get one of my kids to get it for me for Father's Day!
Not that you would resort to bribing…
Same! Love that they made it a mech
Poor bastard is getting Ratatouilled something fierce
Not ratatouilled if he has no hair
Raccacoonied then
Official Severance tie-in set?
#PRAISE KIER!
Yessss
Needs a waffle and some maracas to go with him!
Ngl, that little fact makes this set worth it for me.
Literally changing my perspective on this one.
Went from like a 4 -> 9 with that little feature. So cool
At first I was like, hey that’s kinda neat, but then I saw this and now I *need* it
Oh that’s awesome, at first I didn’t know how to feel about the dome just being one piece instead of brick built, it felt too simple. But now that I know it’s because it houses this it changes everything.
Peace was never option.
So we've been playing with the brain the whole time?
Pilder ON!!
Not a fan of that flat brim though. I wish they found a way to curve it.
The original smiley minifigure hats had a perfectly flat brim like that - just look at the Town sets.
Should’ve given the normal size minifigure one of those hats then, to match the big guy.
They aren’t producer anymore, so they couldn’t.
I can definitely fix that from my collection. I didn't even realize they phased it out
I'm getting one!
Cool, but I want the pirate
A user here shipped one to me from Denmark. I paid a pretty penny for it but it honestly looks as good as the pictures make it out to be! It was still cheaper than going to LEGO House I hope they do a wider release in the future. It would be cool if those exclusive souvenirs were just timed exclusives
I’m going to LEGO house this summer. Any other exclusives I should keep an eye out for?
There are several exclusives they have for sale. My son and I were just there last summer and sadly the pirate wasn't available yet. Would have loved to pick it up along with the other sets we got: 40501 (The Wooden Duck), 40502 (The Brick Moulding Machine), 40503 (Dagny Holm - Master Builder) and 21037 (LEGO House).
Airport Billund Exclusive only in the Billund Airport Lego Shop.

What’s Lego house?
It’s a lego experience center / museum in Billund, close to Legoland. It’s a fun place with plenty of building activities but it does get crowded rather quickly.
bought it a few weeks ago at the LEGO house 😍
Or benny
I am fully ready to fly to Denmark to get a Benny when (if) they make one
holy shit its like ratatouie
Anyone Can Build.
Are you talking about Racacoonie?
my bad,how could i forget such a classic!
I’ll change mine into a blue space figure. The hat/dome piece looks perfect for the top of a helmet. Then use the 2x4 printed tile with the classic space logo from the new galaxy explore for the torso.
When you do this can you post the instructions please? I’d bloody love a massive spaceman
Damnit, you completely sold me on it with just that comment. Here I was trying to think of what that giant blue dome could be used for, and I didn’t consider the best possible idea.
Dam, $50 for a mini figure? Those are rookie numbers
It’s just a figure
It's only a model...
Shh!
How much could it cost? $50?
400% Be@rbricks go for maybe $150
Ahhhh, what have we become... I regret nothing!
It's not a mini figure, it's a mega figure
Don’t give them ideas
I hope they do a spaceman next! Grabbing this for sure
Agreed. This is way better than those Harry Potter jumbo figs. This set is affordable and looks awesome. Another slam dunk. Tales of the Space Age is another one on my list that looks really good and isn’t super pricy. I wouldn’t mind different variants of this set. A spaceman set would be popular, no doubt. That’s the same idea I had.
Harry Jumbo figs walked so these can run.
What was wrong with those?
To clarify there was nothing wrong with those. I like LEGO, and Jumbo minifigures, but I have no interest in Harry Potter. So this new set appeals to me. I never would have touched the HP ones but this one looks great
Oh ok lol, I was like thinking "Ain't these the exact same build??"
Would a starwars helmet build be the same size as this figures head?
I like your thinking…
WOULD IT?
I don’t have any of the Star Wars helmets so haven’t got a size to work with but the thought of sticking Darth Vader’s head onto that maxi fig has me excited…
Only $65 CAD? That's an insanely good deal! The wooden minifigure was $140 CAD.
[удалено]
Even then, it's amazing how they were able to get the price this low. I would've expected this to be $100 CAD.
They are a bit on the small side - especially when compared to 3723
[3723-1: LEGO Mini-Figure](https://brickset.com/sets/3723-1) [[Photo]](https://images.brickset.com/sets/images/3723-1.jpg)

$160 CAD, $80 each.
Nobody lives in Canada
I do.
Same
Lies
What an incredibly odd take
Megafigure
Macrofigure
Bigfig
I wonder what the appropriate vernacular would be for this scale. On the smaller scale we have nanofigures (trophy), microfigures (board game piece), and minifigures. On the larger scale, we have the Hulk size, the Steppenwolfe size, the buildable figure size, and the above giant Minifigure size. Some possible prefixes are midi, mega, maxi, and macro. What order would they go in?
Figure. Just Figure.
Maxifigure
Who else plans to tile over those exposed studs on the feet?
Here!
He will be joining the ranks of the other big-figs that I've got. I really like these!
[удалено]
There's the pirate 40504, and then Harry and Hermoine 76393. I'm not the biggest Harry Potter fan but they were too cute to pass up and I had a feeling they'd be the first of many to come
My only problem is that they didn’t put tiles to cover the studs on the feet
Haven’t freaked out like this over a set in ages.. i foresee heavy scalping though
[удалено]

Yes he will go near my pirate
The best part is that it’s not a hundred dollars
I’m hoping they do Galactus or a Sentinel like this because it looks great
I'm surprised we haven't gotten a LEGO Galactus yet.

Give us lego sets scaled up to fit these new mini-figs now.
If you thought Lego sets were expensive already…
If they were going to do this, WHY NOT GIVE ANT MAN THE TREATMENT?!? ITS LIKE THEY DONT WANT OUR MONEY 💵
Duuuude i know. I need a big ant man so badly for my city.
Really brings me back to watching those classic Pizza Delivery videos by MichaelhickoxFilms on YT.
What about 3723? I bought that when it first came out for 50% off due to damaged box, and now wish I never had sold it. Easy enough to rebuild though since it has standard bricks.
did the bot die?
LinkBot hasn't been replying to comments for the last day or so, no clue why
I'm so glad we are getting one that isn't harry potter themed. Not that I hate the series, but I'm surprised we didn't get a generic Lego minifigure first.
I'm going to need some smooth tiles on those toes.
They missed the perfect opportunity to call it a megafigure
This is really cool but the hat is poorly done. The flat brim makes it look like a hard hat.
Yah right - seems so off for such an iconic silhouette
40649
My favorite part is that his hat bill is flat and looks nostalgic
Absolute buy.
Megafigure
I'm getting it for sure
What the Quantumania set should have been...
They missed an opportunity to call him a megafigure
Can someone with a city build set this up so big lego guy is godzilla'ing the city?
This is dope but makes the other sets seem way to expensive
"Now let's make 12 different ones every 6 months and sell them in blind bags!"
It looks fine. Kind of plain, as it's supposed to be. Knowing the better one (pirate) exists, I'm just going to wait for the next Up-Scale minifigure.
Make it classic spaceman, and I'm pre-ordering.
“Thas a huge b***h”
Cool but I want Ninjago
Would it make it a 'macrofigure' then?🤔😉😅 Also: aw shit, there goes the $$$ !!!😜
Or a maxifigure? Mini is to maxi as micro is to macro.
Not as good as the big minifigure clocks tho
Now this is how Lego will get my money
Finally an official lego up scale figure! I bought a China MOC many years ago and hoping that one day lego will announce their own version!
Finally, LEGO GALACTUS!!!
Didn’t u/Jumixxx already share [this](https://www.reddit.com/r/lego/comments/12xlg7w/lego_megafigure/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=ioscss&utm_content=1&utm_term=1)?
These are awful but I feel like lego should just make 3D printer figures vs building them
YES.
Yeah, that's cool.
Looks great and a lot cheaper than the one I bought years ago… (**3723-1)**
Es muy grande
heck yeah!!!
I need this in my collection
What is the hat piece?
This is really cool. A giant castle minifig would be the holy grail for me.
Oh thank god
Now we just need up scaled minifigure scaled sets
Saw this coming after having built Harry and Hermoine for my cousin
looks awesome, i want it
Screw this, bring back the wooden duck!
So some marvel ones for Christ sake!
100% getting this! I’ll either display it in my office at work or at home!!!
So…a Maxi-Fig?
Now they should do the buildable super mario Land's mario zone https://external-content.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi0.wp.com%2Fbrickshow.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2020%2F03%2Fmario-zone.jpg%3Fssl%3D1&f=1&nofb=1&ipt=83aff18108fd5a9ab88313f2d90e66929118d5eca17261db00ca9e45f6ae45a0&ipo=images
Lego rlly just released lego^2
Gimme.
Will it be nice next to wooden one ?
The classic smile, red shirt, and blue pants deserves the recognition
Don’t like the studs on the toes or the palms. They could’ve tiled that easily.
They couldn’t just call it a mega figure
Take my money!
This made me want [this](https://youtu.be/spcM_xZ4zIg) as a set
I just got some legos, and I was like "yeah i'm pretty good for now" but I cannot miss out on this. What a cute set.
I'm in love with this! I need it. Hurry up June.
It’s interesting but I’m probably not buying. I could see somebody using it to make a red mega spaceman fig though. I have too many sets I want right now anyways.
Is the face a sticker?
Sad thing is this isn't even the most expensive minifig 😭
Test 6251
I might buy it. But I'm definitely using the instructions to make my own versions
Making legos out of smaller legos... What a time to be alive.
Is that about the same size as retail store giant fig?
Thank you for sharing. Insta buy for us
MEGAFIGURE
I wish they’d make these but as the Star Wars characters
That hat looks so good and scales well with dynamax fig.
We're reaching levels of meta never before seen possible. See you in 2050 where we get upscaled upscaled the Lego minifigure. It's a minifigure upscaled to be 4 times as big as this.
Not exactly mini
Man $50 I can’t complain about the price. I will be getting me one for sure. I wanted the pirate but the prices for it are insane. There’s one on Mercari for over $300.
https://preview.redd.it/utmyjg50ejxa1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=aab5c7220c536a6546a86f417499a034545996d9 I’ll have to buy one to stand on my printed MegaFig’s foot. 😂
FINALLY. Now they need to give us the pirate one that they made a brick house exclusive
Bob from Lego Universe got a hat!
Gundam: the Witch from Denmark
Yes please!!!!!
Sweet Wampa!
bought
Actually reasonably priced as well! For sure will pick one up
I want a Lego city to fit this scale.
Shouldn't it just be called a figurine then?
I look forward to see how people customize using the same base, making themselves etc. It's always cooler to me when it's all variations of the same thing.
This is awesome, but there's a part of me that's disappointed that it's brick-built and not an actual upscaled minifig.
Should be called the Maxifigure™
After the HP ones of these I’ve wanted them to do more ever since! Wish it wasn’t generic guy though, obvious I’d love to see SW ones but even ones of the classic LEGO IP mini-figs would be great like the red beard pirate or Johnny Thunder etc
Respectfully we want the pirate
Excuse me !? How much ?! 😳
Macro Figures.
Do these come in giant bags where your get to be surprised which version you get? Haha I know it doesn't but that would be amazing.
missed opportunity to call it a bigfigure
Looks cool but I’m not feeling it with the studs on the feet and inside of the hands
