You’ve almost finished designing your Lego diorama of New York City, but you’re still a few citizens short? Here are some people from the Lego Minifigures line —Series 4 is in stores now — that will make your Big Apple a lot more authentic.
Punk rocker
Whether you’re doing a retro scene with CBGB from the the 1970s or a modern subway scene, this mohawked musician is a must.
Sailor man
You might not associate a sailor man with NYC, but if you’re trying to capture Times Square during Fleet Week, you’re going to need this one by the ...boatload. (Sorry.)
Hipster
There’s a ton of colorful characters lurking in Brooklyn, but if you want to do justice to any scene from the borough, then this knit capped hipster is a key addition.
Zookeeper
Multi-faceted and versatile, this figure not only comes with a monkey, but it can be used for zoo displays in the Bronx, Brooklyn, Staten Island or Central Park.
Crazy person
We have a lot of really strange people here, so a masked wrestler could fit into any NYC scene you can dream up.
