A seller from Mexico is auctioning off a new LEGO Luchador minifigure on eBay that is probably going to be in Series 12 of the LEGO Collectible Minifigures line which is devoted to characters in The LEGO Movie. As you can see, he looks very similar to the Super Wrestler in Series 1 but with a different color scheme and some pattern differences. He is seen 23 seconds into the trailer where Emmet introduces himself (see below). The images show him with a black cape but in the trailer, he has on a white one so we’re not sure which cape is included. This also makes me think that the Green Lantern minifigure we reported a while back could be one of the Series 12 minifigures since it doesn’t look like he’ll be in the 2014 DC Universe Super Heroes sets.

Does he come with the car??
Most likely no haha
I had a sneaking suspicion Lego would go and do an alternate ‘evil’ version of the Super Wrestler. I had no idea about an actual name though but I should have known they would have gone with “Luchador” cause of the whole lucha libre thing from the original.
Now I’m actually wondering how much Series 12 will have with just the film? This seems like a character they would have done anyway and felt like sticking him in there somewhere as a cameo. 🙂
I’m not sure if “Luchador” is the official name of him but I just called him that since that’s what he is. I don’t know about you but he kind of looks like El Macho from Despicable Me 2.
Well, big points to you if Luchador turns out to really be his official name! 🙂 And he does look an awful lot like El Macho.
