No. fig-018271
Original
A dedicated university professor and academic instructor.
Minifigure details
This distinct academic figure is a fascinating find for collectors who appreciate deeply detailed civilian roles and themed campus environments. What immediately sets this character apart is the clever reuse and remixing of classic parts, most notably featuring the iconic Professor Dr. Kilroy head paired with a remarkably sophisticated checkered dark bluish gray jacket, white shirt, red bow tie, and an ID badge. This combination gives the figure a distinguished, slightly eccentric professor vibe that stands out in any layout.
For serious collectors, condition is paramount when hunting down figures with specialized prints like the ID badge and dark brown belt. When evaluating your collection, look closely for any micro-scratching on the printed glasses or wear on the yellow hands. Because this figure is tied to a very specific, limited release crowd-funded platform, piecing it together or finding it intact requires knowing your parts, making it a rewarding puzzle for completionists who love academic and educational themes.
Rarity is one of the strongest selling points for this scholarly minifigure, as it is tied to an exceptionally limited production run. Appearing in only a single crowd-funded release, the University of Science, this figure was never mass-produced for standard toy store shelves. This exclusive distribution means that overall supply is inherently restricted by the number of backers who successfully secured the set.
Aftermarket availability reflects this exclusivity, with the figure appearing only sporadically in secondary markets. Because it is locked behind a rare set that has already reached its retirement phase, acquiring this specific teacher variant can prove challenging for regional collectors outside the primary release areas, driving up its desirability among enthusiasts of niche sub-themes.
