#16: LEGO Minifigures series 9 - Chicken Suit Guy


Seemingly months after they showed up elsewhere, LEGO minifigures series 9 finally showed up at the local Target. Surprisingly, they were in the LEGO aisle for the first time. Now that we're in the ninth series, there is a certain amount of fatigue setting in, and I'm feeling more choosy about which minifigures I want to get. Part of it is that it can take a while feeling every package to find the figure I want, so I get more impatient. Fortunately, the more I do this, the easier it gets, so I'm getting fairly quick about it. It also helps when there is a very distinctive piece to find. The chicken suit guy is definitely distinctive because it uses non-standard wing pieces for the arms. The head piece is fairly distinctive, but there are several figures in the series with helmets, so it's probably not the piece that will stand out the most. He doesn't have any extra pieces or accessories (what would he have, an egg?) but the concept of the guy in a chicken suit is cool enough that it's okay he doesn't have anything extra.


Here's the bump code for the chicken suit guy.

  1. I agree with you on the burnout with this line. It used to be very exciting to see them come in, and now it "meh".
