Series 18 Minifigures

About Series 18 Minifigures

A series built around a celebration

Most characters in the series look as if they are on their way to a party. There are two birthday children, Birthday Party Girl (71021-6) and Birthday Party Boy (71021-16), a Party Clown (71021-4) and a line-up of people in costumes, including Dragon Suit Guy (71021-7), Unicorn Guy (71021-17) and Elephant Costume Girl (71021-1). Race Car Guy (71021-13) adds a motor-racing touch to the mix.

A nod to 1978

The Classic Police Officer (71021-8) stands apart from the party crowd. With his simple design he recalls the earliest minifigures, which makes him a small tribute inside an anniversary series. At 7 pieces he is also one of the simpler figures in the list.

Piece counts and completing the line-up

The figures are small, but their accessories vary. Birthday Party Girl leads with 11 pieces, Race Car Guy has 10, and four figures sit at 9 pieces each. The catalogue groups 20 entries under this theme. Originally the figures were sold in sealed bags, so buyers could not see which character they were getting, and collectors often swapped duplicates to finish the series. Bricoria's parts lists help here: each figure page shows exactly which head, torso, legs and accessories belong to it, which is useful when sorting a mixed box of figures.

Where it fits

Series 18 is one of the numbered waves under Collectible Minifigures, each of which forms its own theme in the catalogue. Unlike series that mix professions, fantasy creatures and historical characters, this one keeps a single mood from start to finish. That makes the full line-up easy to display as one scene – a birthday party with costumed guests, a clown and a police officer from another era.
