Rarity
One-of-a-kind (MOC). While parts are common, the specific monochrome assembly is a custom creation.
Head
Standard Light Bluish Gray head beneath a Light Bluish Gray Viking/Warrior helmet (Part 60748) and a Light Bluish Gray long beard molded piece.
Torso
Plain Light Bluish Gray torso with Light Bluish Gray arms and hands. No printing is visible on the front or back.
Legs
Plain Light Bluish Gray hip and leg assembly. No printing or dual-molding.
Accessories
Pearl Gold Large Feathered Wings (Part 11100) attached via a neck bracket, and a Flat Silver or Light Bluish Gray Gladius/Short Sword (Part 95673).
Color Scheme
Monochrome Light Bluish Gray body with a Pearl Gold accent via the wings.
Printing Details
Zero printing. This figure relies entirely on the silhouette and physical molds of the pieces in a single color tone for a 'statue' or 'ascended' aesthetic.
Variants
Variants of this MOC often use Flat Silver, White, or Pearl Gold parts to create similar 'God-like' or 'Statue' effects.
Condition Notes
The figure appears to be in excellent condition. Look for stress marks on the neck bracket and scuffs on the plain torso, which show wear easily without printing to hide them.
Estimated Value
$5.00 - $12.00 USD. The value is the sum of the individual common parts, with the wings and helmet being the most valuable components.
Price (New)
N/A (Individually sourced parts). Total retail cost of parts on secondary markets like BrickLink is roughly $6.00.
Compatible Sets
None. While parts come from themes like Vikings, Castle, and Ninjago, this specific configuration is a fan creation.
Character Background
Represents a 'Viking Deity' or an 'Ancient Warrior Monument.' The gold wings suggest an ascended status similar to a Valkyrie or an Odin-inspired figure.
Design Notes
Utilizes the 'Monochrome' design trend popular in the LEGO community to create a minimalist, high-impact aesthetic using contrasting metallic wings.
Similar Minifigures
LEGO Collectible Minifigures Series 4 Viking, Series 20 Tournament Knight, and the official monochrome 'Everyone is Awesome' figures.
Collectibility
Low in terms of official investment, but High as a 'Purist MOC' for collectors who enjoy building custom factions for displays.
History
Part of a modern movement where collectors build 'monofigs' or themed statues to populate large LEGO dioramas or Cathedrals.
Interesting Facts
The helmet piece was originally introduced in the 2011 Kingdoms line and has since become a staple for medieval and fantasy MOCs due to its realistic historical profile.
Display Suggestions
Place on a marble-colored (Light Gray/White) pedestal in a LEGO Castle throne room or a Temple of Valhalla diorama. Use warm LED lighting to catch the gold of the wings.
Modification Potential
Excellent. Could be upgraded with a Pearl Gold sword to match the wings or swapped with a Chrome head for a 'mercury' look.
Overall Assessment
A visually striking and clean custom assembly. It ranks 8/10 for aesthetics as a statue-style figure, though it holds little value as a rare collectible.
