My birthday is coming up, so what better way to celebrate this event than by giving all of you a little present. The Unofficial LEGO Minifigure App will be for free until October 3rd. This is your best chance to get the app, so tell your friends about it! Notice that the app comes with the original data that was also published in the book, meaning 1975-2010. The recent years are available as in-app purchases.

New Versions of 2012 and Star Wars Catalog Available
I am happy to announce that the 2nd edition of the 2012 LEGO Minifigure Catalog and the 3rd edition of the Star Wars LEGO Minifigure Catalog are now available.

I hope you enjoy the books.
The 2013 LEGO Minfigure Catalog is available
I am proud to announce that the 2013 LEGO Minfigure Catalog is now available. It has been a slightly more difficult process this year but it has been a full success in the sense that the catalog is very complete. I have been able to make photographs of every Minifigure thanks to Frans Snijders-Blok and Alex Cudworth.

Isn’t he just made for being a photo model?
