LEGO® Tapsy

Description

A creature made for mixing

Mixels are small, quirky characters that you can mix with other Mixels to make new creatures, and Tapsy is one of them. The appeal of the line is that parts from several figures can be swapped, so new combinations keep appearing. That gives children a toy with replay value, and adults who like to collect small sets will find plenty to enjoy here as well, since each figure has its own look. The line was built around swapping and recombining parts from the very start.

Yellow and dark purple

The main colours are yellow, dark purple, light bluish grey and black. That makes a bold, cheerful mix typical of Mixels: each figure has a striking colour scheme that makes it recognisable at once. Dark purple in particular is a shade you do not find in every set, so these pieces can be interesting for your own models, for example for shadows, blossoms or details on fantasy creatures and robots. Grey and black act as calm counterweights that make the main colours stand out.

26 part types, quick build

With only 57 pieces, Tapsy is finished in no time. The 26 part types show that many parts appear only a few times and that the figure is made from joints, ball elements and small special pieces. For younger children that is a manageable build with a quick sense of achievement. While snapping it together they also learn how joints work and how to make a figure that can move. New ideas come quickly, such as whether arms or heads fit other figures you own.

Collect, mix, keep building

If you own several Mixels, you can experiment with how the parts combine. This page lists every part number with its colour and quantity. Use the “What can I build?” tool to check which other sets you could put together from this content and your own bricks. That turns a small character into a building block for a larger collection, whether for play, display or ideas of your own. Compare which parts also appear on other figures and which are unique to this one.
