The LEGO Minifigure Series, also known as Collectable Minifigures, was introduced in 2010 and features bling bags of a random LEGO minifigure, each being an original character with new designs, clothing and facial expressions, and most contain previously unseen accessories. Most subthemes contains characters based on movies, sports, history, and popular culture and there are a number of subthemes that are based on licensed products such as The Simpsons, DC heroes, Harry Potter and numerous others.

2016 LEGO Sets

2016 saw some truly iconic releases with sets from Ghostbusters and the introduction of the Nexo Knights. LEGO also released the licensed, but short-lived The Angry Birds Movie theme. However, LEGO did discontinue Legends of Chima, Pirates and also the LEGO Simpsons which only did see a couple of sets. The Creator theme really shined in 2016 with the release of the Volkswagen Beetle (10252-1) and Big Ben (10253-1). The shining star that year for investors was certainly the Ghostbusters Firehouse Headquarters and pretty much all the Speed Champions sets which have seen growth in the triple digits.
