Set Review – 71051 Animals (Series 28)

Buying the minifigure collectibles is not cheap. So it is important to be happy with the ones that are released. Since Series 21, I have been getting the figures that are more to my liking, and not worrying about getting all twelve of them. Just note that there are, sometimes, eighteen! I tend to prefer the Lego creations, more so, than the licensed ones. There have been some cool looking Disney ones, The Muppets and Marvel options, but these have a limited scope, especially if you want to add some neat looking people to a play space.

8 of 12 – Series 28 Minifigures – February ‘2026

These are great, I am most attracted to the food-based minifigures, but these animals are really cool. I was most in need of the dolphin and the fish. Using a Minifig Scanner app on my phone, I could locate these from the stock in my local shop. At least there is a way to bypass the cardboard packaging, although I do miss the feeling exercise with the old bags. These are the current ones that I have, but I am quite happy if this is where is stays. The frog is funny, and what’s not to love about a monkey? It even has a banana! Unlike last time, I would reccommend getting the ones that you like, I think these ones are worth the expense. Just a mention, as I am more than happy to mock the ones I don’t like, but in this case, I wanted to hale these for their greatness.

First Impressions – These are so much better than the last release. There is just more fun in these!
