We have teamed up once again with Minifigs.me to bring you these characters, showing you what this brilliant company has to offer and where to pickup your very own. The team do such an awesome job of recreating our favourite characters, all whilst using a base of genuine LEGO parts.

When browsing their extensive list of products we came across the Alien characters, with Alien Day fast approaching we knew these would go down extremely well so we just had to have them. They not only look awesome, there are so many to collect, the whole Alien & Aliens team are there, waiting to be added to your collection.

For me personally Ripley had to be one of the first Minifigures I picked up, she is after all the star of the franchise. This iteration of the character made more sense to me as the style and clothing were different to that of the first film, she looks so badass in her white torn vest, ripped jeans and ammo belt!

Kane was a no-brainer to get next, it was the Space suit that grabbed my attention. So much detail beautifully packed onto a Minifigure, it’s truly surprising just how much can fit, the team have done a fantastic job.

The entire Minifigure is covered in print, even under the arms. There is a face-hugger on his visor, granted it’s a little on the small side but epic none-the-less.

Creating a small MOC (my own creation) was essential to capturing the characters and taking better photographs to show them off. It wasn’t a very big MOC, it’s more of a background really. Being mostly black the backdrop and layered details were hard to capture, but adding a little light highlighted the rounded edges and the end results were great, recreating a scene from The Aliens film.

These characters are perfect for popping in MOCs and scenes and recreating iconic images from the films. Add the highly talented work from Minifigs.me and bosh, you’re onto a winning combination.

You can pickup these and many other Custom LEGO Minifigures from Minifigs.me, clicking the many links scattered throughout this page will automatically add a 10% discount code to your basket. If that fails please pop this code into the appropriate box during checkout – TheBrickPost-0921.

The Flamethrower isn’t included with the Minifigure, this was my own design, please feel free to copy it as I think it works rather well.

The tiles are also available from Minifigs.me and are a great addition as they also refer to Aliens, ok not the Xenomorph kind but extraterrestrials in general. These will be put into a new MOC sometime soon to show them off in all their glory, so watch this space for that.

Thank you for reading our showcase review of these two awesome Custom LEGO Minifigures, we hope to keep bringing you more when they release, we love a good Minifigure!

Please don’t hesitate to ask any questions you may have, we’ll be more than happy to help.

The characters are inspired by  Halloween and Horror in general and span many decades of cinema history, from the very first Halloween movie released in 1978, The Shining in 1980, to The Mummy which dropped in 1999. They cover a wide variety of genres and are considering modern classics, Halloween is still going with a new film in theaters now, although this outing is considered to be the last in the franchise.

Jump to a specific Minifigure:

• Halloween
• The Mummy
• The Shining

Minifigs.me have captured the characters likenesses from the movies above incredibly well, from the facial expressions and accessories to the full body printing, you can count on Minifigs.me to get it right and at a very high standard. If you would like to own any of these figures please use any of the links dotted throughout the article, they automatically add a 10% discount to your basket, get in!

Halloween:

First on the list is Michael Myers, the man in the plain white creepy mask that stalks & hunts his victims until they end up in a wardrobe. 

The head is perfect and captures the lifeless essence behind the mask well, with the pitch black eye holes and mouth. There is a lack of expression on the face which matches the onscreen counterpart, it really does look creepy.

On the torso you’ll see a few crease lines and pocket details and that is about it, which isn’t a bad thing, it matches what Michael Myers wears in the movie, an overall. This is probably the only instance where less is definitely more when it comes to design. The knife is a great addition to the Minifigure and will be used in future MOCs (my own creations).

The Mummy:

On to one of my all time favourites, The Mummy!

Introducing the hero of the movie series Rick O’Connell (Brendan Fraser). As you can see from the image above the character design is spot-on to that of the movies, kitted out with his gun vest/holsters, white linen shirt, and explorer trousers.

When it comes to the face and hair they are also a great design choice, with his wavey hair and serious expression. It would have been nice to include perhaps an angry or happy expression on the reverse, giving you more choice when taking photos and popping the character in a MOC.

As always Minifigs.me have gone above & beyong with the printing, including continuing the holster straps under the arms on both sides, even the trousers and boots completely surround the legs and feet!

He comes with his trusty pistol which I’ve seen many times before from classic LEGO Cowboy sets. I think this is the perfect accessory companion piece and wouldn’t have anything else.

As you can see from the image above the printing covers both Minifigures entirely, even under the arms. The amount of detail the design team have added is incredible, the shadows in the pleets, the creases where the ribbon & bow has been tied, down to the dark shadow around the eyes, they’ve thought of everything.
