Back in September, it was revealed that UK’s new flagship LEGO Brand Store in Leicaster Square with have a mascot named Lester. There is now an image that has been released of Lester in actual minifigure form coming from LEGO’s social media sites.
Anyways, Lester looks pretty much exactly like what we saw in the reveal image with him having a suit with the Union Jack design and a bowler hat. The image also shows with with an umbrella and a camera but I’m not sure if they come with it, if it is released. There’s still no word on how you can obtain the minifigure but I’m sure LEGO will be announcing something as we get to the store opening date of November 17.

Still hoping they have the common decency to make enough for everyone. The whole ‘Let’s get excited about a limited minifigure that will fetch $300 on the secondary market (so no one can afford it)’ is a nice way to get the interest of scalpers and scammers, but not very good for the target audience of collectors.
I wouldn’t say everyone. If they are available, I think it’ll be a regional thing and US/North America probably won’t get it.
I would never expect them to be available outside the UK (though it would be nice). But take the BR minifigure. Only available in Europe, but they made enough so they are available on the secondary market for @ $5. Totally reasonable, and a fun addition to any collection.
I think the target audience is people visiting the Leicaster Square Lego Store. There’s no reason for Lego to make them available outside that market.
I have to say, that is one of the most beautiful Lego photos I have seen.
This’s so cute the ego Leicester Square Laster Minifigures review pictures.
