Information on the actor/rapper/cameo
Lego Minifigures, also known as "minifigs", are small plastic articulated figures created by The Lego Group. They have appeared in almost every Lego theme since 1978, with a total of more than 4 billion produced as of 2020.
The first incarnation of the minifigure first appeared as early as 1956, though with no articulation, customization, and were merely the size of a model town. The next incarnation (nicknamed LEGOLAND minifigures) had the customizability and yellow skin of the minifigures now, but it wouldn't be until 1978 where the modern minifigure (designed by the late-Jens Nygaard Knudsen) would make its debut, being a simple Policeman. Since then, the minifigure has had many new additions. Some examples include facial expressions in 1989, new molds for legs on shorter characters in 2002, the addition of natural skin tones for licensed characters since 2003, and a collectable blind bag theme since 2010.
The basic Minifigure is comprised of nine separate parts: The head, the body, the arms, the legs, the waist, and the hands. They can stand on Lego bricks via studs, can hold onto anything with the exception of Technic rods, and can be given accessories such as hair, armor, hats, and even Lego bricks. Other kinds of minifigures include Minidolls (introduced in 2012 for the Lego Friends line), Bionicle minifigures (introduced in 2005 for a short-lived subtheme to the popular franchise), and Big Figures (introduced as early as 1999 and proper in 2012), among other specially molded parts for specific characters. In 1979, Godtfred Kirk Christiansen (son to Lego founder Ole Kirk Christiansen), filed a patent for the Minifigure, where it still remains today.
