Set Review - #71045 - Series 25 - Collectible Minifigures

It’s series 25 already! How crazy is that? This batch was released 1 January 2024 and they are still $4.99 each. Individual minifigures are #71045 or you can purchase the box of six with set #66763. There are scannable codes on the boxes to tell which minifigures are inside so it should prevent the boxes from getting broken into like we saw with the last version. I’m more of a fan of the non-licensed versions that they produce so let’s take a look at this round.

First, a picture of the boxes of six. Nothing super exciting.


My kids helped me put these together and they saw the fish with the Film Noir Detective and couldn’t figure out why it was there? Does it matter? This one is a fun concept and I’ve already seen a MOC or two posted using the minifigure as a main character.

Not our first gamer, but the E-Sports Gamer comes decked out with the most gear to include headphones, a controller, a keyboard, and the trophy.


Everything castle seems to be popular lately so we’ll see if this one joins that party. the translucent red ax blades are pretty cool. I doubt Vampire Knight will be a new sub theme, but it’s pretty creative.

We’ve had numerous Olympians before. The Sprinter here is different as he has prosthetics on.


Goatherd. Is everyone happy now? There’s a goat. I’m not sure why everyone is so excited about this goat, but it’s here. I hope you all can get some sleep at night now.

The Mushroom Sprite is very fun. The mushroom cap is a fun detail and you get a colorful butterfly as well.


The Fitness Instructor comes equipped with a kettle bell, fitness drink, and printed abs. She looks like she could kick any minifigure’s butt.

The Triceratops Costume Fan is great. Could go well with the new Natural History Museum modular or maybe as a Jurassic Park visitor.


Harpy is… um… what is it? Wings, claws, purple hair… okay?

Train Kid is fun with the costume similar to past boat and plane characters. We weren’t sure why he has an eye patch on. I assume he has an injury that he’s healing from. The printed part on the front of the train piece is a nice detail. You get two in the bag so figure out how to use the extra one.


The Fierce Barbarian could be a good addition to a Viking Village. This is not the first time we’ve had a barbarian if you can remember back to Series 17. If you have the previous one, you can now grow your barbarian horde.

Lastly, we have a Pet Groomer. This one comes with a dog that I don’t think we’ve gotten before. The minifigure has a dual printed face and the apron is printed on the torso and legs.

There you go…Happy hunting!
