Year Released
2018 (Released in the set 76102 Thor's Weapon Quest)
Rarity
Uncommon to Rare. This is the only official LEGO minifigure produced of the character Heimdall. Since he appeared in only one set, his value has steadily increased since the set's retirement.
Head
Dark brown skin tone with specific gold eyes (to represent his all-seeing abilities) and a stoic expression. It is a single-sided print, partially obscured by the large helmet piece.
Torso
Dark brown torso with intricate gold, dark orange, and metallic silver armor printing. Includes gold printing on the arms to represent gauntlets. The design reflects his appearance in the later MCU films (Thor: Ragnarok/Infinity War).
Legs
Dark brown legs with detailed gold and metallic armor plating printed on the front. The printing continues the design language from the torso, representing his Asgardian leather and plate armor.
Accessories
The figure features a unique Pearl Gold helmet with large upward-curving horns (molded specifically for this character) and a matching gold shoulder armor (pauldrons) piece. In the original set, he also carried a large trans-light blue sword representing the Bifrost key (Hofund), though the sword is missing in the image.
Color Scheme
The primary colors are Dark Brown and Pearl Gold. Touches of metallic silver and dark orange are used for detailing. This reflects the more 'rugged' Asgardian aesthetic seen in later Marvel movies.
Printing Details
High-quality pad printing on the head, torso (front and back), arms, and the front of the legs. The gold ink has a slight metallic sheen which contrasts well against the dark brown plastic.
Variants
There are no official variants of this specific minifigure. This is the only version of Heimdall LEGO has released to date.
Condition Notes
Common wear points include the 'points' of the helmet horns which can show stress marks if dropped. The gold printing on the toes of the legs is often the first to rub off with play. Check for cracks in the heels and torso sides.
Estimated Value
Used: $25 - $40 USD | New (extracted): $45 - $60 USD. Prices fluctuate based on the condition of the pearl gold helmet, which is the most expensive individual part.
Price (New)
Originally available in set 76102 for $19.99 USD retail. The minifigure was approximately 1/3 of the set's figure count (3 figures total), making its 'retail value' roughly $6.66 at launch.

Character Background
Heimdall, played by Idris Elba in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, is the all-seeing Asgardian sentry of the Bifrost Bridge. This version represents his look while in hiding on Asgard during Hela's reign and his eventual final appearance in Avengers: Infinity War.
Design Notes
The helmet mold is the standout feature here, perfectly capturing the silhouette of the movie prop. The decision to use a dark brown base instead of gold/tan reflects his more battle-worn 'rebel' look from Thor: Ragnarok.
Similar Minifigures
Other Asgardian figures like Thor (sh409), Hela (sh403), or Valkyrie (sh408). It also shares a similar aesthetic with high-detail armored figures from the Ninjago or Lord of the Rings lines.
Collectibility
High. Because he is a unique character (not a recurring variant like Iron Man or Captain America) and only appeared in one relatively small set, he is a 'must-have' for completionist Marvel collectors.
History
Heimdall was a long-requested character that didn't receive a figure until the third Thor film wave. His release marked one of the last 'original' Asgardian characters to be produced before the theme moved more heavily into solo Avengers sequels.
Interesting Facts
Despite being the gatekeeper of the Bifrost throughout the Thor trilogy, it took LEGO 7 years from the first Thor movie to finally produce his minifigure.
Display Suggestions
Best displayed on a 'Bifrost' MOC (My Own Creation) using trans-colored plates, or alongside the Escape Pod from set 76102. Ensure the lighting is bright enough to catch the metallic gold printing.
Modification Potential
The head and torso are popular for 'purist' customs of other armored warriors. The helmet is a frequent choice for custom fantasy knights or 'Old Man' Heimdall variations.
Overall Assessment
9/10. An excellent minifigure with unique molds and high-quality printing. He remains one of the more valuable non-exclusive Marvel minifigures due to his character popularity and single-set appearance.
