Ninja (CMF)

The Ninja minifigure from the Collectible Minifigures Series 1 is a sought-after piece due to its classic ninja design and early CMF rarity. Collectors appreciate its simplicity, featuring a traditional black ninja outfit with a detailed torso print and a distinctive head wrap. The minifigure's yellow head with unique facial features, including thick eyebrows and crow's feet, adds to its character and appeal.

As one of the original CMF releases, this ninja holds a special place in LEGO history. Its condition is crucial for collectors; pristine examples with undamaged printing and accessories command higher prices. The nostalgia factor and the completeness of the minifigure are key considerations for serious collectors.

This Ninja minifigure is relatively rare due to its exclusive release in the first series of Collectible Minifigures in 2010. Unlike figures found in standard LEGO sets, its availability was limited to blind bags, making it harder to acquire specific figures. The retirement of the series further solidifies its rarity, as no new units are being produced.

While not the rarest minifigure overall, its age and the inherent collectibility of early CMF releases contribute to its desirability. Aftermarket availability is consistent, but prices can vary significantly depending on the condition and completeness of the figure, with sealed versions commanding a premium.
