For fun... top 3 animal suit minifigs desired

Post by StClair » Mon Jul 20, 2015 9:49 pm

Just for fun...
List 3 animal suit costume minifigures that you would love to see in the future.
To the best of my knowledge so far LEGO blind bags have included:
  • Gorilla suit guy series 3
    Lizard Man series 5
    Bunny suit guy series 7
    Chicken suit guy series 9
    Bumblebee Girl series 10
    Panda Guy The Movie series
    Piggy Guy series 12
    Unicorn Girl series 13
    Hot Dog Man series 13...not an animal
The Hot Dog Man made things a little confusing. If you like you can list costumes similar to the Hot Dog Man.

So just for fun what are the top 3 animal suit minfigures that you would like to see produced in the future?

I'd love a banana guy, with a baby so I could make references to the banana grabber character and the baby banana grabber character of arrested development :)
I realize that's not an animal but it's along the lines of got dog guy.

I think a narwhal guy would compliment unicorn girl :)

I'm going to think about it for a bit before I list my top 3 wants.

If you haven't checked the prices of the Bunny Suit Guy lately on ebay you should do it. The animal suit minifigs have really gone up in value.

I'd grab a Banana Guy if they made one, but for the Peanut Butter Jelly Time song.

I'd want to see a Giraffe one, cause I'd be interested to see how'd they make the head piece. A Lion, with a big mane head piece. Maybe a Hedgehog.

It's peanut butter jelly time! He could come with maracas!

grommom... A banana suit would be great (Arrested development had such a great cast). I love the idea of a narwhal.

Pumpkin Ecks... My son would flip if they made a Hedgehog costume figure (even if it wasn't blue and similar to Sonic hehe). A giraffe would be really interesting and they could do it. I really like your idea of a lion with actual mane (not like the chima ones).

I may change my mind later but for now I'm making a list... and I'm cheating and listing 4 :eek:sorry
-Fish
With person's face peering out through the mouth (similar to the one on the left)... Definitely not like the one on the right

-Markhor, an Indian wild goat (If they could make the head big and bulky with twisty horns)

-Walrus (must have the tusks)

-Fox with hood with ears attached (similar to the one in the photo... they could re-use Furty's tail from Chima)

Any ideas what would be a suitable pairing with the bumblebee girl? A Frog? Preying Mantis?

(The photo of the fox came from http://www.sewset.com/pattern/131 I lost the links to the fish costumes)

A turtle suit might work. They already have turtle shell parts from the Ninja Turtle line.

How about a bee keeper? They wear hats like safari hats, bit not an animal. ..

Walrus and Fox sounds good.

A bee keeper would be cool, but not an Animal Suit though lol.

A beekeeper would be a nice minifig and I agree it wouldn't really be an animal suit but still would be a nice minifig to pair her up with

I agree. A bear would be fun. It would need to be different than the panda though (different head sculpt). I wouldn't want the same parts simply with different printing.

A kangaroo or donkey would be a lot of fun as well (maybe the mention of Winnie the Pooh triggered those ideas...)

Ooh a boxing kangaroo would be cool, and if you could remove the gloves it could be a kangaroo :)

That'd be a neat minifig. Agreed that it should be completely different from the panda.
