LEGO Minifigures Series 19 revealed!
We now finally have official photos of the upcoming LEGO Minifigures Series 19 which has a release date of 1 September 2019!
Update: Read my complete review of LEGO Minifigures Series 19 to check my thoughts and more detailed photos of the entire set.
Series 19 is now available worldwide – you can buy order them in random blind bags from LEGO.com or if you’re after a complete set, you can usually find them on Amazon.
In Australia, you can order them from Amazon Australia or all major toy stores.
The upcoming numbered series of minifigures once again returns to LEGO’s Collectible Minifigures roots with a colourful and eclectic cast of characters to collect.
This is also quite a historic minifigure series as we have seven (or possibly eight – Care Bear/Blacktron Bounty Hunter’s gender are unknown) female minifigures in this series, which I’m super freaking excited about.
What a win for gender equality and for LEGO to finally put out a 50-50 gendered series! Heck, you could even make the argument that the Batlord Ghost Knight has no gender, and then you’d have a female-dominated series.
There will only be 16 minifigures to collect, unlike the most recent Disney Series 2 which had 18 characters to collect.
LEGO Minifigures will always be my first love, so I’m really excited for Series 19.
I do like licensed minifigures series, but they can sometimes be quite hit and miss, whereas the Core numbered minifigures series tends to be much more fun, with so much more variety in terms of characters.
Here are the 16 new LEGO minifigures to collect in a full set of Series 19. Do note that these are my own names, and when we get the official names, I’ll update this accordingly.
Unfortunately, we don’t know the exact box breakdown or distribution of Series 19, but I would be very surprised (and upset) if we don’t get at least 3 full sets a box.
- BMX Bike Rider
- Batlord Ghost Knight
- Bathtub Guy
- Rugby Player
- Pro Gamer/Streamer
- Pizza Guy
- Puppy Poo Cleaner (definitely not the official name)
- Rainbow “Totally Not a Care Bear” Bear
- Female Hacker
- Female Mummy
- Fox Suit Girl
- Gardener
- Blacktron Bounty Hunter
- Monkey King aka Sun Wukong
- Female Firefighter
- Explorer AKA Johnny Thunder!
This really looks like a particularly solid series and there are some amazing new accessories such as a rubber ducky, BMX bike, a LEGO Poo freaking finally), a LEGO Sausage Dog, and Flamingo.
There are also all sorts of cool callbacks, like what is most definitely Johnny Thunder, or maybe his son, a Blacktron Bounty Hunter, and also a callback to the Batlord from LEGO’s Fright Knight castle theme.
Add a dash of pop culture with pro-gamer that’s a total homage to JackSepticEye, (a popular video game streamer/Youtuber), and CareBears, and you’ve got potentially one of LEGO’s best series yet.
I’m most excited about Fox Suit Girl, Batlord Ghost Knight, Pizza Guy, the Care Bear and the Monkey King (aka Sun Wukong from the Chinese epic Journey to the West).
Check out all the minifigures below! Let me know in the comments which ones you’re most excited about!
LEGO Minifigures Series 19 has a release date of 1 September 2019, and I absolutely can’t wait to review this series!
