LEGO^® MINIFIGURE(S) OF THE MONTH

January 2026 | The Painter & Year of the Horse

We’re kicking off 2026 with a duo that blends tradition, celebration and artistry in one beautiful scene. This month, we’re spotlighting the two standout minifigures from the LEGO^® Spring Festival Galloping Horse Canvas (80119) — a talented painter and a festive Year of the Horse minifigure.

One captures tradition. One captures celebration. Together, they bring culture to life in brick form.

The Painter – Creator of Prosperity

With brush in hand and a horse painted across a scroll, this minifigure represents the timeless art of Chinese ink painting. Horses symbolise strength, determination and success — making this character more than just a display piece.

The detailed scroll element and artistic accessories turn this minifigure into the storyteller of the entire set. She isn’t just part of the scene… she creates it.

The Year of the Horse Costume Minifigure – Festive Spirit in Motion

Dressed in a vibrant horse costume, this celebratory character embodies the joy and energy of Spring Festival. The specially designed horse headpiece adds dimension and personality, making it a standout addition to any collection.

Playful yet meaningful, this minifigure perfectly reflects the zodiac theme of 2026 — bold, lively and full of forward momentum.

A Celebration in Every Detail

Together, they represent both tradition and celebration — art and festivity in one scene.

One honours cultural legacy. One embodies zodiac prosperity.

It’s this combination of symbolism, storytelling and seasonal exclusivity that makes January’s Minifigure of the Month a meaningful way to start 2026.
