Scrimper (28621 Head)

Scrimper is a unique minifigure from the LEGO Hidden Side theme, known for its ghostly appearance and distinctive translucent parts. The combination of trans-clear and trans-yellow elements, along with the bright light orange accents, makes it visually striking and highly desirable for collectors interested in unique color schemes and ghostly minifigures.

Collectors also appreciate Scrimper because it is a named character within the Hidden Side universe, adding to its appeal beyond just its aesthetic qualities. The attention to detail in the printed torso and head further enhances its collectibility, making it a standout piece in any LEGO minifigure collection.

Scrimper only appeared in one set, the Welcome to the Hidden Side (70427-1), which was retired. This single appearance inherently increases its rarity compared to minifigures appearing in multiple sets. While not a regional exclusive or special edition, the limited availability due to the single set appearance contributes to its desirability on the aftermarket.

As a minifigure exclusive to a retired set, Scrimper has good investment potential. The Hidden Side theme, while not as universally popular as themes like Star Wars or Marvel, has a dedicated following, and unique minifigures from this theme tend to hold their value well. Given its unique design and limited availability, Scrimper is likely to see steady appreciation in value over time, especially as the Hidden Side theme becomes more nostalgic.
