The Unofficial Guide To Minifigures, Colors and LEGO Life
I am proud to announce that the 2013 LEGO Minfigure Catalog is now available. It has been a slightly more difficult process this year but it has been a full success in the sense that the catalog is very complete. I have been able to make photographs of every Minifigure thanks to Frans Snijders-Blok and Alex Cudworth.
We are happy to announce that a free upgrade for our App is available. It now has the Collectible Series 11 and the LEGO Move Collectibles. Fire up your app and go to the settings tab. There you can find the upgrade information. We hope you enjoy the new photographs.
The LEGO company is currently promoting its REBRICK website and asked selected LUGs around the world for their participation. Our LUG 4/2 decided to join, so I took Mr. ReBrick to take his model shoot for the Unofficial LEGO Minifigure Catalog. Here is the photo setup and the resulting photograph. Isn’t he just made for being a photo model?
Harold Nicoll from The Collectors Show interviewed me about the Minifigure Catalogs. His podcast is interesting for all sort of collectors. You can listen to the broadcast on Web Talk Radio. Here is the MP3 Download of the interview.
I have been looking for a descent space theme for some time. The current space themes are just too exotic for me. Too many bugs, creatures and just weirdness.

The new book LEGO Space: Building the Future
We are proud to announce the 2.0 version of our Minifigure app. Nic has been working very hard on a tablet version of the app. It now takes more advantage of the larger display size while maintaining a good maintainability. It is available at Google Play and the App Store.
You only have three hours left to get your Maurice Moss t-shirt from TeeFury! Best Minifigure t-shirt ever!
We are happy to announce that the 2012 catalog data is now available as an In-App-Purchase (IAP). First you need to update the database to the latest version (settings > database) and then go to settings > collections and look out for the purchase button.
I am proud to announce that the second edition of the Unofficial LEGO Minifigure Catalog is now available as book from CreateSpace and Amazon and as an eBook (DRM free PDF) from Lulu. I have been able to make many corrections and additions and I hope that you enjoy this new essential book for all Minifigure fans.
We are happy to announce that a service update for our LEGO Minifigure App for iOS is now available at the AppStore. It resolves a nasty bug when browsing the heads section. This problem did not occur in the Android version and hence not update is necessary. The 2012 data is in progress.
