Year Released
2014 - First released in set 41054 Rapunzel's Creativity Tower during the initial wave of Disney Princess sets with mini-dolls/figures.
Rarity
Uncommon. While the character was mass-produced, this specific version with this torso and head is limited to early Tangled sets and has since been replaced by newer versions.
Head
Yellow skin tone with a unique smirk expression, brown eyebrows, and a soul patch beard. It features mid-length dark orange/brown hair with a part in the middle.
Torso
Dark Turquoise vest over a tan/white shirt. Features printing of a brown belt with a gold buckle and a crossbody bag strap with pouches. Back printing included.
Legs
Plain Dark Brown. Standard minifigure assembly with no printing on the legs or hips.
Accessories
Includes a brown telescope (as shown in the image). In the original set, he also typically included a frying pan (iconic to the movie) or a satchel.
Color Scheme
A mix of Dark Turquoise, Tan, and Dark Brown, accented by yellow skin tones and dark orange hair.
Printing Details
High-quality pad printing on the torso (front and back) and face. Printing is sharp but lacks the newer 'dual-molding' or leg-side printing found in modern 2020s figures.
Variants
There are several variants: the 2014 version (dp003 - shown here), an updated version with a slightly different vest (dp038), and newer versions with more refined facial printing.
Condition Notes
Common wear points include the 'neck' of the torso where the head attaches and the hairpiece, which can show scratches. Dark brown legs are prone to visible stress marks at the hip joints.
Estimated Value
New/Sealed: $12 - $15 | Used Complete: $6 - $10 | Loose parts: $2 - $4. Prices vary slightly based on demand for Tangled-themed builds.
Price (New)
Original set (41054) retail price was $39.99 USD. As a single figure in a medium-sized set, his portion of the value was roughly $5 at launch.
Compatible Sets
41054 Rapunzel's Creativity Tower (2014). He also appeared in slightly different forms in junior sets and promotional bags.
Character Background
Eugene Fitzherbert, better known as Flynn Rider, is the deuteragonist of Disney's 2010 film Tangled. He is a charming thief who helps Rapunzel see the floating lanterns.
Design Notes
This figure is notable for being one of the few standard 'minifigures' included in the Disney Princess line, which mostly uses 'mini-dolls' (like Rapunzel). This makes him highly compatible with LEGO City or Castle MOCs.
Similar Minifigures
Han Solo (similar vests and rogue personality), Prince Eric, and the updated 2017/2020 versions of Flynn Rider.
Collectibility
Moderate. He is a 'must-have' for Disney Tangled fans, but his value is capped by the fact that several newer versions of the character exist.
History
Flyn Rider debuted as part of LEGO's expansion into licensed Disney themes in 2014. His design has evolved to have more expressive face printing over the years.
Interesting Facts
Despite being a 'Classic' minifigure body, he was designed to sit at the same height as the Rapunzel mini-doll, even though their limb aesthetics are completely different.
Display Suggestions
Best displayed inside a custom LEGO Tangled tower vignette or next to a Rapunzel mini-doll. Use a clear stand to mimic him 'climbing' using his satchel strap.
Modification Potential
Excellent for 'purist' customs: his torso is frequently used by MOC builders for Robin Hood or medieval peasants and rogues.
Overall Assessment
A solid, faithful representation of a beloved Disney character. Score: 7/10. He is a charming figure that holds his value well due to the popularity of the Tangled film.
