Does anybody know the complete dimensions of a LEGO minifigure? I've tried looking it up but the only measurements that I can find are incomplete and don't specify units. Thanks in advance!

So, a while back, my cousin, Meyres the Anchorman, posted a topic asking what you'd like to see if LEGO ever did a Marvel-based series of Collectible Minifigures, similar to the Simpsons or LEGO Movie ones. Well, this evening, he and I discussed what we might like to see in a DC version of the same. However, after a few minutes of discussion, we deduced that it would be beneficial to have a New 52 series and a pre-52/Silver Age series, to give collectors and fans a lot of variety. Together, we devised 2 or 3 complete series from both timelines for your consideration. After you've read our thoughts, feel free to add to it and let us know what characters/versions you'd like to see in ABS form. Series 1: New 52--We figured we'd go with this one first to give current fans a set of familiar figures that would be immediately recognized and coveted Green Arrow--He's one of my favorite DC heroes, so of course I picked him. Plus, it'd be cool to see him standing next to his Pre-52 version Agent 37/Grayson--Meyres' pick for a cool New 52 character, and because he likes the Grayson character Black Hand--I figured we need another Lantern character that isn't Hal Jordan Jimmy Olsen--who said they all had to be heroes or villains? Supporting characters are just as important. Captain Cold--The only difference here is that I'd like to see an iteration closer to his CW version, because he's easily my favorite character in Legends of Tomorrow Ares--According to my cousin, he counts as a Wonder Woman villain. So, yeah, he would compliment.... God of War Wonder Woman--it's nice to have different versions of a character we've already seen in sets. Reverse Flash Cisco "Vibe" Ramone--Like Captain Cold, I'd want to see the CW version, or something close to it Kyle Rainer--because he's another significant Lantern character Red Hood--would compliment the Agent 37 character as another member of the Bat Family, as well as adding another villain Cyborg Superman--would be cool to see in plastic form Malcolm Merlyn/Dark Archer--would compliment the Green Arrow character Booster Gold--Because why not? CW Flash--Because the outfits between timelines are very pretty similar for Barry Allen, and the CW version would give us a dark red and gold Flash instead of normal red and bright yellow. Orion--Another of Meyres' picks that I know little about Series 2: Pre-52--The second series would encompass the earlier versions of the characters to give the die-hard fans a nice throwback to days long past Jay Garrick/Flash--This would give us a distinct contrast to the Barry Allen Flash, whose outfits are fairly similar across his iterations. This would give us more variety Red Robin--another iteration of Robin that hasn't appeared in any sets Bronze Age Green Arrow--As I said before, it would be cool to see the contrast between his classic and modern outfits Hush--appeared in the Batman 3 game, but would be nice to see in plastic Black Canary--enough said Alan Scott Green Lantern--would really give it some variety 90's Superboy--I agree with Meyres that this one would be a nice addition Silver Age Braniac--Would be an interesting take on the character. The Question--Because that's why. Silver Age Red Tornado--Not the coolest one in my opinion, but if he was good enough to make it into B3: Beyond Gotham, then this would be fine Talia Al'Ghul--Because another Batman character should show up, and we need more female characters Raven--A well-known member of the Teen Titans, and would give us a purple hood piece Bizarra--The Bizarro version of Wonder Woman would also be a nice addition to the lineup Zatanna--we both agreed that one magical young woman wasn't enough, and Zatanna was a significant JLA character and would make a great addition to the character lineup Deadman--Dunno who he is, but Meyres seems to think he'd be good. Miss Martian--Appeared in B3: Beyond Gotham, and I think she'd be a good compliment to Martian Manhunter, who we've already got two iterations of.So, there you have our idea for a potential Collectible Minfigures line of DC characters. What are your thoughts? EDIT: Whoops, almost forgot to add the third series we thought of. Introducing.... Series 3: Batman--You wondered at our lack of mention of Batman in the other two lineups, right? Well, we found a solution for that.... First Appearance Batman--A different version of that Bat than we're used to, his cape more closely resembled wings, and this one regularly used guns and wasn't above killing 60's Batman George Clooney Batman '89 Batman DCAU Batman Arctic Batman Sensor Suit Batman Power Suit Batman Dark Knight Batman LEGO Movie Batman Brave and the Bold Batman Blue Batman Darkest Night Batman (Lantern suit) Electricity Suit Batman Batzarro BatfleckEnjoy.

I was just looking at some of the LEGO Dimensions figures, and the caption on one was "Great Scott! My legs are detachable!" That got me thinking. Cole mentioned an explorer named Clutch Powers back during the Serpentine story, right? They exist in the same universe, then. Now, let's think back to 2010 and the Clutch Powers movie. In it, the characters were capable of switching out their hair/headgear, as well as dismantling their bodies (as repeatedly shown by Bernie). Also, Clutch recognizes the names of LEGO parts, and recognizes that his people are called "Minifigs." If this is the case, then why don't any of these seem to apply to Ninjago? I get that it's likely just a throwaway line to tie the stories together, but it still does make one wonder just how much carries over from one story to the other. What do you think?

I was able to snag these for $10 each at Barnes and Noble yesterday, which is half off and a more reasonable price I was willing to pay. I like them! They look great. I can fit two figs per section, mostly. As you can see here, I've (mostly) put custom figs up front and an official fig in the back (the more impressive fig, so to speak, shown off). They even have openings in the back to a wall-mount via screws. They also stack snugly. Unfortunately the top studs are slightly larger than 4 regular studs, so building something to fit on top will take a bit more work than just building a base with a 4x4 hole in it. This isn't the final display. I'll probably move the Firefly figs back out onto my shelf. And even when I do that I won't have room for ALL the Marvel figs (and with the chrome Star Wars figs, which definitely need to be protected from dust and fingerprints here, they take up more space from DC figs not housed here). While I would love to get more, having these kind of cases to display everything I want to show off would get extremely pricey. I think the next step is to get some small display cases, like one might have for model cars (or a LEGO DeLorean) and actually build some step-like features with staggering steps and figs, like I already do: (Also featured: Lots of figs.) However, all in all, I really like these and have no regrets purchasing them. It's just a matter of deciding which figs get to live dust-free. -CF

After quite a delay, here are my next eight Mass Effect minifigs. They're all humanoid this time around, so no exciting builds, but I've expanded my decal-making abilities to include custom faces, which you'll see on all but one (Miranda) of this wave. I've yet to quite perfect the proportions, so I'll hopefully improve on that by my next wave. Each figure has two photos linked: the first is their main pic, the second is a small collage of alternate views. More information about each figure can be found on their Flickr descriptions. Comments and criticism much appreciated!

Mass Effect is my all-time favourite video game series, and if there's one franchise I'd love to see in Lego form, that's it. Since TLG don't seem to be going about acquiring that particular contract any time soon, I thought I might as well try my hand at decal design and make my own! This is the result of my work so far; the first 'wave' of my Mass Effect minifigs, if you like. I admit that there's not much building involved in these figs; most of the design is in the decals and customs. I don't claim to be much of an artist, but I've always had a thing for pixel and vector art, and I'm quite pleased with how they turned out but I'd love to get some feedback. Each figure has two photos linked: the first is their main pic, the second is a small collage of alternate views. More information about each figure can be found on their Flickr descriptions.

This is just awesome. It looks cool and funny at the same time, and it's very true to the real thing. While it looks like it's halfway clumsily molded and halfway made that way intentionally to reflect his battle-scarred armor, it's overall amazing. What do you guys think?
