Our Favourite LEGO CMF Series 18 Characters

Just prior to the New York Toy Fair and before any leaks were shown, LEGO announced the full lineup of the LEGO CMF Series 18 characters. This series celebrates the 40th anniversary of the minifigure, and hence has a Costume Party-theme. There are 17 minifigures to collect and will be available this April. They do look very different to most traditional 16 minifigure series - especially with the orange display stands.

LEGO CMF Series 18 

The character list for the LEGO CMF Series 18 is as follows:

• Balloon Artist Clown
• Birthday Cake Guy
• Blue Suit Brick Girl
• Blue Unicorn Knight
• Cactus Girl
• Cat Suit Guy
• Cowboy Suit Guy
• Elephant Suit Girl
• Fireworks Guy
• Race Car Guy
• Flower Girl
• Police Officer
• Purple Balloon Girl
• Red Suit Brick Guy
• Orange Balloon LEGO Fan Boy
• Red Dragon Suit Guy
• Spider Suit Guy

Our Favourite Characters?

Blue Suit Brick Girl and Red Suit Brick Guy

Our two favourite characters from the LEGO CMF Series 18 collection are Blue Suit Brick Girl and Red Suit Brick Guy. These are really unique and definitely celebrate 40 years of the minifigure - could there also be a hint at 60 years of the brick?

Red Dragon Suit Guy

Our next favourite Series 18 minifigure would have to be the Red Dragon Suit Guy. This is a really cool throwback to the Fantasy Era Dragon from 2007. The attention to detail is also really good.

Race Car Guy

Race Car Guy is another favourite from the LEGO CMF Series 18 list. It's a really nice throwback to the Rocket Racer minifigure from the Rocket Racer game (notice the 'RR'). Also the car featuring the number 40 is awesome. Overall this minifigure looks great and could be used easily outside of the series.

Police Officer

The Police Officer is another favourite. Not much has changed since his 1978 LEGO 600 version (as shown by the gift he's holding). We've also heard that this special minifigure is available only once in a full 60 pack box. A really cool throwback for sure.

Conclusion

That's our favourites from the LEGO CMF Series 18 collection. We also like Fireworks Guy, Orange Balloon LEGO Fan Boy, Balloon Artist Clown and Spider Suit Guy! What are your favourite characters?
