The first mystery minifig is revealed! It is a British "Tommy" soldier, holding a Lee-Enfield SMLE rifle, and a clip of bullets. He has a color-matched Brodie helmet.

He sells for $15 at BrickFair.

Very interesting, a clip... I wouldn't have guessed that for a new product. The helmet's really great, I like it much more now than the previous prototype pictures from BrickWorld, I think.

So sweet! I love the clip, it's awesome. I especially like the name you gave him. :)

So . . . friggin' . . . awesome. The lee-enfield and clip are sheer genius, and I love his decal.

Will he be for sale outside the convention?

EDIT: Sir Norman Ray is going to be thrilled . . .

I love this guy! I'm coming on sunday and I can't wait to this minifig. I have to scrummage up some money. You know that clip looks allot like the clip use in a M1 Garand. Maybe you should include it with and M1?

Shame the internet fails to carry sound without a microphone. I just woke all the neighbours up. Teach them to be asleep when I'm up, getting ready for work and seeing this.
Ye Gods, I hope this goes on regular sale.

Sweet! I love this guy! He looks like a pristine killing machine! My only critique would be bullet sizing. Can`t wait, can`t wait... HE MUST BE FOR SALE SOON!!!!!

I think the general opinion is that of awe for Mr British. Please leave some for eBay guys? Only way I'll get them I fear...

Alas, poor Tommy. Due to the costs of production, he won't be making it online for sale. Shame really. I do understand the reason and such, but its still a kick in the Crown Jewels. Now to make the choice of either starting from scratch, or converting my US Riflemen squad into British...
