About this deal

I love the new white laptop included with the programmer – it’s a fresh new colour and is very Apple-like, even if Apple hasn’t released an all-white Macbook in years. Johnny Thunder and the Adventurers theme might be ancient history, but I really love the use of a Series 19 slot to give us an updated Johnny Thunder for 2019. Apart from a laser blaster, the Galactic Bounty Hunter comes with a Bounty Poster, which emits a cool vibe thanks to its trans-red colour, and it also cleverly uses the book cover element which makes it easy to grip. The Jungle Explorer, aka Johnny Thunder 2019 is the perfect minifigure for the nostalgia-loving LEGO fan. Fire Fighter minifigs have a long and storied history with LEGO, and this is probably one of the most-detailed versions yet – I like the hi-vis vest, and plenty of side leg and arm prints.

It’s a weird combination, and I think I’m in the camp of different types of plastics that are not meant to be mixed. He pretty much looks like a unicorn threw up on Panda Suit Guy, with multi-coloured ears, legs and arms. Teased very prominently in the LEGO Movie 2, I’m really glad to get my hands on her as I’m a massive fan of animal costume minifigs.The Monkey King is one of the frontrunners of my favourite minifigures of 2019. The minifig design is just inspired, and LEGO clearly pulled out all the stops in getting this one right, from the accessories to the incredible printing detail. When you hear the word Programmer, most people’s mental image would probably default to a nerdy bespactacled male, but LEGO flips this on its head with a cool female Programmer. The Fright Knight, as his name suggests is a spectral ghost knight, and I love spooky elements such as his trans-blue broadsword and plume on his helmet.

How To Find One: Try feeling for the Mummy Queen’s headpiece, which is quite large and feels like a large hairpiece, with no texture. Alternatively, you could also feel for the scorpion, which has a prominent tail. The Care Bear Bear Costume Guy is another fun, zany addition. Built on The LEGO Movie Series’ Panda Suit Guy, the Bear Costume Guy is all about rainbows and love hearts. LEGO have done a remarkable job again with LEGO Series 19, and this is an easy Top 3 or Top 5 series for me personally. The Pizza Guy minifigure cleverly repurposes the wedge piece from Watermelon Guy from The Movie Series 2 series, with highly detailed printing across it. It goes without saying that I’m a big fan of the Fox Costume Girl, and am very happy to finally get my hands on her.The printing on the mountain biker is one of the most detailed in this series, with a colourful coral lycra top, and blue pants. Thanks for reading! I hope you enjoyed reading my review and I’d love to know what your favourite characters are from Series 19. Share your thoughts in the comments section! But I’m glad they did, because the Mountain Biker is such a breath of fresh air on the existing minfigure with handheld accessory. The Video Game Champ comes with a great new accessory, a console controller that’s loosely modelled after an Xbox controller.

If you’ve grown up in an East Asian culture like I have, it would’ve been near-impossible for you to not have come across the Monkey King in Hong Kong TV shows or even Japanese anime like Gensomaden Saiyuki and of course Dragon Ball, whose protagonist Son Goku is heavily inspired by Sun Wukong.Unmasked, the Fright Knight has a ghastly pale blue face, a large sinister smile and bright white eyes. Don’t know about you, but I get serious White Walker vibes from him. All up, I’m really happy with this series. Despite a few misses like the Programmer and Fire Fighter, I really enjoyed just how much fun the designers seem to be having with the characters and elements introduced. We’re off to a great start with the Dog Sitter – it’s a fun character with a relatable occupation, you get not one but TWO LEGO poops, and the French Bulldog and Daschund combo is just the cutest, and will surely delight all types of dog people. I love the printing on the Ant-Man helmet, which conceals the Bounty Hunter’s identity, and the heavily sci-fi motif across its body.

There’s something for everyone, from Classic Space nuts, to LEGO Castle Fans, to die-hard Johnny Thunder enthusiasts, and even Carebear followers, and of course collectors of Animal Suit Minifigures. If I could improve Monkey King, I’d have included the cloud base from the Unikitty series, as he’s known to fly around on a magical cloud. You may feel tempted to feel for the dogs, but the Daschund is the one that’s easy to identify with the flat sides of the body, and sharp snout, but it’s still much easier to identify the shovel. How To Find One: Try feeling for the Video Game Champ’s 2 x 3 tile, which is quite large and super easy to find, given its flat texture. Just be sure that it’s not the Pizza Costume Guy, which is easy to eliminate thanks to his large suit. The presence of the stud on its body is a little strange and slightly out of place and I’m left wondering what LEGO wants us to attach to this sausage dog.Who (or more precisely, what) lies under the mask? We get a pale blue-faced alien with red eyes, and some skin peeking out from within the suit.
