The new LEGO 71048 Series 27 minifigure series 27 is proving to be popular with the community, thanks in no small part to a few key characters.

The Steampunk Inventor is proving to be a particularly popular minifigure, possibly because Steampunk is a subgenre that the LEGO Group has not previously covered before this minifigure. Now that there’s finally a LEGO Steampunk minifigure with gold detailing, goggles, pipes and more, it’s become an instant hit.
Some of the community have taken particular notice of the Steampunk Inventor’s head and top hat to make unique custom minifigures, including switching Steampunk for a classic outfit.
G.B. R. Home‘s group of custom characters has used the new printed hat in reverse to hide the goggles from sight while still benefitting from that exclusive face design and the brown moulded top hat piece. Given the fanciful style of Steampunk in general, it’s not shocking to see this minifigure looking right at home in the well-suited group.
Aside from the Steampunk Inventor, the Jetpack Racer and Astronomer Kid have been used to create an interesting display by Punk Rock Vader and the use of the transparent curved element works perfectly with the futuristic jetpack minifigure.
Whichever minifigure you prefer in 71048 Series 27, the new series is available now for £3.49 / $4.99 / €3.99 per boxed minifigure. Click here to take an in-depth look at all 12 collectable characters.
