The five rarest bonus minifigures included with LEGO video games

LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga Galactic Edition isn’t the only TT Games title that’s included a rare bonus minifigure.

This week saw the release of LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga Galactic Edition, an updated version of the video game that first appeared earlier this year. As with the Deluxe Edition of the original title, the new iteration also includes a bonus minifigure, although the set only appears to be available as an extra incentive in a number of territories.

The original 30625 Luke Skywalker with Blue Milk polybag was selling for big bucks just a few short months ago, but the set’s reappearance alongside some copies of LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga Galactic Edition suggest it could now see a reduction in value.

Of course, 30625 Luke Skywalker with Blue Milk wasn’t the first bonus minifigure to be bundled in with a LEGO video game. In fact some of the rarest minifigures to be released were only ever included with pre-orders of TT Games titles, making them must-haves for fans and collectors alike. So exactly which are the most elusive minifigures available with LEGO video games over the years? Here’s our list of the top five rarest character polybags, complete with current market value prices at the time of this writing:

5 – 5000202 Elrond

Theme: The Lord of the Rings Price: £24 / $27 / €28 Pieces: 6 Released: 2102

Free with pre-orders of LEGO The Lord of the Rings: The Video Game, this exclusive minifigure featured two facial expressions, a cloth cape and a gold-bladed staff. A code included with the Elven warrior allowed players access to special PC wallpaper and a designer video.

4 – 71340 Supergirl

Theme: LEGO Dimensions Price: £39 / $44 / €45 Pieces: 6 Released: 2016

One of the last LEGO Dimensions minifigures to be released, Supergirl could only be obtained by purchasing a PlayStation 4 Starter Pack as part of a limited time promotion. When used in the game, the character is able to access unique Red Lantern abilities.

3 – 30625 Luke Skywalker with Blue Milk

Theme: Star Wars Price: £61 / $69 / €70 Pieces: 6 Released: 2022

This exclusive minifigure was selling for as high as £96 on eBay earlier in the year, but the polybag’s rerelease as part of LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga Galactic Edition may now see that eye-watering price begin to drop slightly.

2 – 30168 Gun Mounting System

Theme: Marvel Super Heroes Price: £67 / $75 / €77 Pieces: 17 Released: 2013

Pre-orders of the LEGO Marvel Super Heroes game included a minifigure that has never appeared in any other LEGO set to date. The model featured James Rhodes in his Iron Patriot suit, complete with Gun Mounting System mini build.

1 – 5002946 Silver Centurion

Theme: Marvel Super Heroes Price: £67 / $75 / €77 Pieces: 12 Released: 2016

Tying with 30168 Gun Mounting System for first place is a minifigure that could only be obtained with pre-orders of LEGO Marvel’s Avengers. This unique variant of Tony Stark’s armour also included a code to unlock the character in the game.
