Killer Gaming minifigs from Bloodborne, Assassin’s Creed, and beyond [Minifig Monday]

LEGO and video games are overlapping more and more, with partnerships with big players like Fortnite, Minecraft, Mario Kart, and even  Horizon taking up a growing share of LEGO releases. Of course, no amount of official sets can keep up with all the games being released on PC and consoles. Fortunately, there are plenty of amazing builders making custom versions of game characters we love.

Kamil Karpiński is a builder we’ve spotlighted several times for his bolstered figs that integrate brick anatomy with minifig heads. For this tribute to From Software’s cult classic Bloodborne, the builder sticks with classic minifig parts and perfectly captures the Victorian horror aesthetic of the game. The rubber band wrapped around the sawtooth blade and the extra buckles on the arm really sell it.

LEGO Wolfpack on patrol

Wolfpack Beastmaster is the unambiguous favorite of Collectible Minifigures Series 27, bringing back a fan-favorite Castle faction and a new wolf mold. As appealing as the figure is out of the box, minifig modder Kamil Karpiński always finds ways to take minifigs to the next level. The Beastmaster gets a wickedly clever brick-built crossbow while his sword goes to the captain, an incredible figbash foe who leads the pack atop a fearsome dire wolf. Seeing Kamil’s trio has me craving a new Wolf Pack building set. If LEGO releases a Classic Castle update in 2025, would you want the Wolfpack, or is there another theme you’d rather revisit?

There’s no Hyde-ing the good and evil here

The respected Dr. Henry Jekyll and his monstrous alter ego Mr. Edward Hyde roam the streets in this slick and sinister build by Kamil Karpińsky. The titular characters from Robert Louis Stevenson’s classic story turned Halloween icons are a study in contrast: Jekyll is dressed to the nines in a bowtie, waistcoat, top hat, and long coat, with a gentleman’s cane as an affectation. Mr. Hyde, on the other hand, makes good use of Gothmog’s head from 10333 The Lord of the Rings: Barad-dur for a fearsome, demonic visage. His enlarged shoulders strain at the remnants of Jekyll’s coat, while his feet have split his trousers open, exposing his impressive brick-built musculature. The rest of the build is fairly minimalist, but we can see the infamous potion spilling onto the street.

Mini LEGO centaur isn’t horsin’ around

Kamil Karpiński is a master at working minifig parts and accessories into complex creatures bursting with personality. As much as we loved Kamil’s Aarakocrans, this centaur druid is a contender for his most impressive figure yet. While LEGO has made a molded centaur body before, Kamil’s brick-built solution offers more realistic proportions and posability. Using the head and hairpiece of Beorn from the LEGO Hobbit line brings appropriate animal rage to the build. Packing in around 100 elements, the centuar might be mini in stature but it’s a major building feat.

Tiny talons are major minifig feat

Thanks to the newly-released Dungeons and Dragons Collectible Minifigures, filling out your LEGO scenes with fantasy races and epic loot is easier than ever.  Kamil Karpiński picked up a couple of Aarakocrans (aka birdfolk, aka “Jarnathan”) and using just 13 tiny elements built new legs to amplify their avian qualities. As wings and quivers clash, Kamil gives his ranger a hip solution.

Kamil’s fantasy-focused creations show how even minifigures can become the foundation for clever building techniques. (His take on Sauron rules them all!)
