Year Released
2019, released as part of the LEGO Ideas 123 Sesame Street and Tree House era, specifically originating from the 21319 Central Perk set period (though THIS specific figure is actually the 'Tree House Young Girl' modification / Hidden Side mashup)
Rarity
Uncommon. The parts originate from specific sets, notably the torso from LEGO Hidden Side and the hair from newer LEGO Friends/City elements. As a complete ensemble, it is often found in the 21318 Tree House or 70423 Hidden Side sets.
Head
Yellow skin tone, female face with a smirk and glasses printed on the eyes (though many versions of this head feature a reversible scared/happy expression). Smirk with eyebrows and white teeth visible.
Torso
Dark bluish gray blazer/suit jacket with a magenta/purple scarf. The shirt underneath is white. This torso is most notably associated with the Hidden Side theme (Parker L. Jackson variant). It features back printing of the jacket's seam and the tie/scarf.
Legs
White mid-sized legs with black boots. Often referred to as 'teen' legs or 'short movable legs' that allow the figure to sit while appearing shorter than a standard adult minifigure.
Accessories
None visible in image. Usually paired with a smartphone tile or ghost-hunting equipment in the Hidden Side sets, or a book/toy in LEGO Ideas sets.
Color Scheme
Dark bluish gray, white, lavender (hair), and magenta (scarf) with yellow skin. This is a bright contemporary color palette.
Printing Details
High-quality pad printing on torso (front and back). The scarf has crisp magenta lines. The legs are dual-molded or printed to show the black boot transition. Head printing is centered and clear.
Variants
Several versions of this character type exist. Often confused with Parker L. Jackson from Hidden Side who wears a similar beanie, this specific hairstyle variant is used to represent generic 'adventurous' girls in modern City and Ideas sets.
Condition Notes
The white legs are prone to scuffing and discoloration/dirt. The lavender hair piece is made of a slightly softer plastic than the head and can show bite marks or deep scratches more easily.
Estimated Value
Used: $3.00 - $6.00 USD. New: $7.00 - $9.00 USD. Value is mostly in the unique torso and hair parts rather than the figure as a whole entity.
Price (New)
Variable. The sets she appears in range from $20.00 (Hidden Side polybags/small sets) to $199.99 (Tree House). Single CMF style figure value is approximately $4.99.
Compatible Sets
21318 LEGO Ideas Tree House, 70423 Paranormal Intercept Bus 3000, 70425 Newbury Haunted High School.
Character Background
Commonly represents a modern youth character, often an explorer or a student. In the Hidden Side context, she is a protagonist involved in ghost hunting using digital technology.
Design Notes
This figure demonstrates LEGO's move toward more realistic 'modern' clothing like blazers and scarves. The hair mold is a newer 'sculpted' style with integrated goggles rather than separate goggles.

Collectibility
Low to Moderate. While not a rare 'investment' figure, it is highly desirable for MOC (My Own Creation) builders who want high-quality civilian clothing and diverse hairpieces for city scenes.
History
Released during the transition where LEGO began mixing 'realistic' world characteristics with fantasy themes like Hidden Side. It marks the era of the 'New Flesh' vs 'Classic Yellow' debate in licensed vs non-licensed lines.
Interesting Facts
The torso printing was a high-water mark for the Hidden Side theme, representing one of the first times a 'casual blazer' was executed with such detail including the folds in the fabric.
Display Suggestions
Perfect for a modern LEGO City modular display, a school scene, or as a 'civilian' in a superhero diorama.
Modification Potential
High. The torso is excellent for custom business or school-uniform figures. The hair is a popular swap for figures needing a 'spunky' or 'tech-savvy' look.
Overall Assessment
A solid 7/10 figure. It lacks the 'prestige' of a Star Wars or Marvel hero but excels in part-design and versatility. A great addition for any contemporary LEGO City enthusiast.
