January 25, 2013 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

Everybody loves LEGO minifigures. Who doesn’t like minifigs? Above is an fun and interesting infographic of facts about the little guys created by Visual.ly and designed by Hot Butter Studio. The infographic even includes information about female minifigures including the Friends line. There are a bunch of statistics that you may not know about including the 18:1 ratio of male minifigures to female minifigures. Also, did you know that there are 122 million minifigures sold each year? That’s more than some populations of some of the larger populated countries in the world including Mexico, Germany, and the United Kingdom! The amount of them sold even comes close to the estimated population of Japan which has about 127 million people in the country. Click on the image above to see it better and let us know what you think about it. We hope you enjoy it like we did and hopefully learn something more about some of the most important pieces in a LEGO set.
