GoFigure

GoFigure is a LEGO minifigure builder created for LEGO enthusiasts of all ages. It helps users get inspiration for new builds, express their creativity, and share that creativity with other users. Whether users wish to build a custom minifigure or use GoFigure to help them find that brick they didn't know they needed, GoFigure is a go-to LEGO minifigure companion.

Search Mode

Users have personal virtual inventories, which are banks of all pieces that will be available to them when building. They can add pieces to or delete them from their virtual inventories. Users find new pieces to add by searching either for complete official LEGO minifigures, narrowed by themes or pulled from the collections of other users. Users can also search for individual pieces by search term and part type.

Build Mode

This is where users can mix and match pieces from their virtual inventories to create a LEGO minifigure. Users can also view details, including the Bricklink ID for a given piece, which can be used in conjunction with the link to Mecabricks 3D builder available from this page to create a 3D rendering of their minifigure. Users can also use this ID should they wish to round out their physical collection by buying the related brick. After users have selected their bricks, they can their figure a description and name and upload a photo.

Profile

Here users can see all of the minifigures they have created, delete minifigures, or create/delete collections. Collections are publicly viewed from the home screen by all users and can be searched similarly to official LEGO minifigures in the add parts section of the app. Minifigures that have not been added to a collection yet are private.
