Mini Figures & Accessories
We love making historical mini figures. They help bring history to life and allow kids to recreate the stories they are hearing.
Although we can’t sell every piece we make for our own collection, we have been posting a picture of one mini figure a week, so you can see what we create. Any age of brick lover will delight in these pieces!
