LEGO Originals Wooden Minifigure (853967): It's Now or Never

Imminent end of career for a product which will not have won unanimity but which will not have left many indifferent either: the wooden minifigure from the LEGO Originals range (ref 853967) is still available at LEGO but it will be permanently withdrawn from the catalog at the end of the year.

You have to pay the tidy sum of 119.99 € / 159.00 CHF (129.99 € in Belgium) to afford this minifigure which in theory pays tribute to the know-how of the founder of the brand, Ole Kirk Kristiansen, carpenter of his state before becoming the plastic toy emperor. In fact, it is above all a mass-produced product produced at a lower cost in Vietnam, from wood that we are presented with as coming from sustainable forests. Nobody will check.

Still, it's a nice gift to give to a LEGO fan who has already bought the other product you thought you were giving him anyway. Many fans have only placed this showcase product very far down their priority list and they will thank you for allowing them to keep € 120 to spend on new products from their favorite ranges which will be available in January 2021. And it's always better than a pair of socks with their dog's head or a Scorpio box set.
