# Mini Musical Figurines The LEGO Pop Groups Makes Geekdom Not So Geeky By Robyn Currie | Published 2010-03-16 | Life-Stages Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lego-pop-groups References: [cakeheadlovesevil.wordpress](http://cakeheadlovesevil.wordpress.com/2010/03/15/musician-lego/) & [flickr](http://www.flickr.com/photos/dunechaser/201174031/in/set-72057594083207756/) The only thing worse then stepping on a piece of [LEGO](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/daft-punk-lego-helmets) in the dark is stepping on a [little LEGO figure](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/thrilljoy-pix), but I would be ok with stepping on a couple of these LEGO pop groups. Represented here are bands like Wolfmother, U2, Blur, KISS and my favorite, The White Stripes. I am sure if I had these to play with, I would be a lot better at playing music and maybe a lot cooler in my grade school days. Check out the gallery for more of the playful LEGO pop groups. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.5/10 - Popularity: 52% | Activity: 14% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Gen Alpha, Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Life-Stages](https://www.trendhunter.com/life-stages) > [Toys](https://www.trendhunter.com/toys) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Pop Culture-inspired Toys:** Opportunity to create a line of figurines inspired by popular music, movies, or TV shows to attract fans and collectors. - **Interactive Musical Merchandise:** Opportunity to develop merchandise that engages the fans with customizable features and musical elements to enhance their fan experience. - **Nostalgic Toys Remakes:** Opportunity to revamp old toys and make them relevant to modern consumers by adding a new twist and pop culture references. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Toy Industry:** An opportunity for toy manufacturers to create pop culture-inspired toys and transform popular bands or movies into collectibles for fans. - **Music Merchandising:** Opportunity for music bands to create interactive merchandise that connects fans to their music and brand story. - **Movie and TV Merchandising:** An opportunity for movie and TV studios to collaborate with toy manufacturers to create merchandise that appeals to their fans and generates a new revenue stream. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Building Block Musician Sets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/daft-punk-lego-helmets.md) - [Blockish Music Tour Posters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lego-ideas-eras-tour-poster.md) - [Music Video Playsets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lego-ideas-bts-dynamite.md) - [Puppet-Inspired Building Block Figures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lego-muppets-minifigures.md) - [Building Block Band Artworks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lego-art-the-rolling-stones.md) - [Fandom-Honoring Building Block Sets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fandomhonoring-building-block-sets.md) - [Trophy-Inspired Puzzle Bricks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gramophone.md) - [Building Block Snow Globes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lego-lofi-girl-snowglobe.md) - [Band-Inspired Collectible Figurines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/funko-pop-figures.md)
