About Series 8 Minifigures
An eclectic line-up
Series 8 does not follow a single idea. The Alien Villainess and the Evil Robot give space and sci-fi builders two new antagonists, while the Conquistador and the Lederhosen Guy look back to European history and tradition. Sport is covered by the Downhill Skier and the Football Player, and the Diver and the Fairy take the wave underwater and into fairy tales. That variety makes it a useful source of characters for many different kinds of builds, from winter villages to harbours.
Parts per figure
At 10 parts, the Alien Villainess (8833-16) is the largest figure. The Downhill Skier (8833-7) comes next with 9, reflecting the extra kit that a skier needs. The Evil Robot (8833-1), Conquistador (8833-2), Football Player (8833-5), Diver (8833-6) and Fairy (8833-9) each have 8 parts, and the Lederhosen Guy (8833-3) has 7. If you have a pile of loose minifigure parts, the parts lists make it easy to check whether you can reassemble a complete figure.
