Space Creature

The Space Creature from Series 22 (71032-11) is a standout Collectible Minifigure that pays clever homage to LEGO's beloved Classic Space heritage. Sporting a distinctive dark purple and gold uniform proudly bearing the Classic Space logo, this extraterrestrial figure strikes the perfect balance between retro nostalgia and modern whimsical character design.

The figure boasts several standout parts that make it a favorite for sci-fi MOC (My Own Creation) builders. Its dark pink head features dual mouth prints, allowing collectors to display it with either an amused small mouth or a wide open, toothy maw showing a turquoise tongue. The headgear repurposes the bumblebee antennae cap mold in dark pink with large printed alien eyes, and the dark purple torso with gold lapels provides a unique variant of the iconic Classic Space emblem not found anywhere else.

Because Collectible Minifigures have limited production runs and this specific character appeals directly to the massive Classic Space fan community, it remains in steady demand on the secondary market. Complete figures with the original packaging-insert accessories, including the translucent tank accessory and ray gun, command the highest interest.

As a member of Collectible Minifigures Series 22 released in early 2022, the Space Creature was distributed in blind bags with a standard 3-per-box ratio (in 36-pack boxes). The series was retired within several months of release to make way for subsequent CMF waves.

While not individually ultra-rare during its retail lifespan, its status as a single-set blind bag figure and its complete retirement mean the circulating supply is fixed. Mint condition, complete copies are increasingly absorbed into permanent Space-themed collections.

Space-themed CMF figures have historically demonstrated reliable post-retirement appreciation, driven by the enduring popularity of both original sci-fi minifigures and Classic Space tie-ins. The inclusion of the Classic Space logo on a striking dark purple uniform gives this figure an edge over more generic alien characters.

While it is unlikely to reach the stratosphere of early series rarities, the Space Creature represents a solid, low-risk collectible with steady year-over-year gains. Investors can expect steady demand from collectors looking to complete Series 22 or assemble diverse galactic cantinas and spaceports.
