I know this seems to have been around for a while, so apologies if you have in fact seen it before, but I’ve just found it through a posting made on Twitter by @spookyamd. Seems as though there’s been a timeline developed that tracks every mini figure that has been released by Lego between 1978 and 2008. What’s even cooler is to go through and spot the ones you have.

I was given a wooden box of basic Lego back when I was about 5-6, and I still have many of the original “large” figures that they used to have. Over the years I added to that box with hundreds of sets and models, and can count dozens of the mini figures in the timeline that still live in that same wooden box today – being played with now by my own kids.

Take a look and maybe leave a comment about which ones you have!

I think I just found the ultimate Star Wars Lego set

Start saving your pennies, cause you’re going to need them! The Death Star comes with areas for all the classic scenes – from the Imperial boardroom, to the cell blocks and trash compactor, to the Emperor’s final scene. And at only 3803 pieces, you could watch Episodes 4-6 while you build it!
