My Ranking of Minifigures Series 15
Dont get me wrong, all reviews which I read about Series 15 were very nice and informative.
This review is not your typical one, because it focuses on ranking each figure based on 5 different criteria:
- face (1-3 points),
- body (1-3 points),
- special parts (1 or 0 points),
- story (1 or 0 points),
- sympathy (1 or 0 points).
I started my ranking with the Minifigure's face (1 = worst, 3 = best). Since the beginning, my favourite one in this category was the Frightening Knight, because of his truly scary face and spiky tooth. On the other side, my least favourite was the Flying Warrior face, which feels really "empty" to me.
On the photo bellow, you can see the final scores for each face.

I decided to add one extra point to those Minifigures with very original story:
- Shark Suited Guy, Animal Control, Flying Warrior, Faun and Farmer.
My last criterion is a reflection of all the previous ones and add a little extra - overall feeling from the Minifigure, its uniqueness and like-ability in a positive way. My favourite one in this category was the Faun, because of its friendly appearance, unique legs, great story and many more ... you can also see him in my Blog's logo :)
On the photo bellow, you can see 8 chosen Minifigures with one extra point in this category.

Summing all points from 5 different criterions together, the deserving winner is ... the CLUMSY GUY with 8 points.

Write komentářůClumsy Guy is my favorite as well, but I don't have the methodology or empirical data to explain why. Because I have a LEGO city, I mostly judge Minifigures on how useful they'll be in town (including their individual parts.) I really wanted one Wrestling Champion for town, for example, but did not need a second (I don’t really need ANY knights or Fauns.) The Janitor and Animal Control Agent aren’t all that special, but you can use multiples in town with just a change of hair or head (plus they came with cool accessories.)
ReplyI guess I judge minifigs by themselves and then by how their collective parts will benefit my LEGO town.
I'm very pleased that we both came up to the Clumsy Guy, even though with different ranking method. I like the way you think about your minifigures - it's very clear and straightforward. Have you thought of using the Jewel Thief in your Lego town? It could be a nice spinoff to the "calm" city! :)
ReplyI like the irony of Clumsy Guy's tshirt. And while I like him a lot, I'm torn to pick a favorite from this batch, because there are a lot of really good ones. The accessories for the Flying Warrior are amazing. Shark Suit Guy... come on... who doesn't love a costume? Ballerina girl is very sweet. Tribal Woman, Kendo Fighter, Animal Control...argh! Just can't pick one. :/
ReplySeries 15 minifigures are perfect. I created this ranking to help myself to decide on which minifigure I like the most. :) As you said, it isn't easy to pick one. I agree about the Clumsy Guy tshirt, it perfectly captures his unlucky !
