Lego Minifigures Series 16 Spy Review

The spy is a minifigure which I think has arrived with strange timing. The figure reminds a lot of Ethan Hunt from the Mission Impossible series but we just received this character in minifigure form via a Lego Dimensions Level pack. Well never mind because this is a great figure regardless and he has some interesting features.

 He has a new hair piece with a spiky quiff with indents on the side which allow the attachment of visor pieces. The visor piece you get is some black spy googles possibly for night vision. He has a very heroic face with slight smirk and a headset so he can communicate with his backup. He's wearing a tactical jacket with lots of zips and pouches and the logo of his spy organization. The left arm also has a high tech watch printed on it. The legs are printed with a combat pants style with lots of pockets. He is also wearing a backpack which is a black version of the parachute pack we got with the Skydiver from series 10. He also has a rubbery rope which he probably uses for lowering himself down from high places and other ropey activities. He also has a gun which is made of a nozzle piece rather than an actual new gun piece.

The spy is a great figure but I think the excitement of get a spy in minifigure form has been quashed by other recent spy figure releases like the ultra agents and the Lego Dimensions Mission Impossible Level pack. Still he has some unique pieces making him worth seeking out. If trying to feel this figure out in the bags you probably want to search for the hair piece which is quite unique and should be easy to feel.
