## What is Minifig Scan?

This is a fan application, LEGO® and the LEGO® logo are trademarks of the LEGO® Group, which does not sponsor, authorize or endorse this app.

With the introduction of the LEGO® Minifigures Series 25, it is now possible to identify which minifigure is inside the box by scanning the data code on the bottom of the box.

LEGO® has not yet confirmed this, so it may not work all the time, but many users have reported that the data codes match the minifigs correctly.

This app allows you to quickly scan these data codes and reveal which minifigure should be in the box.

The app may provide links to purchase products online in case you have difficulty finding them in stores.
Some of these links may be affiliate links.
Using these links allows the app to earn a small commission on qualified purchases at no additional cost to you.

### 5/5 — Sehr gut

*2026-08-23*

Mit der App kam man sehr leicht und schnell die Figuren scannen. Die neuen Figuren werden schnell hinzugefügt und grobe Lego News findet man bei dem „Aktuelles“ Abteil.
Die Figuren sind schön anschaulich und manche kann man sogar 360 grad anschauen. Die Figuren kann man favorisieren und die Serien auch die App ist sehr Übersichtlich und sauber 5/5.
Viele Grüße…

Really nice app! I’d recommend this to anyone who loves Lego figure collecting! Had a box of figures chucked in a box and it was so lovely to have them built up and on display.

Although, I have noticed that there is one set that I had that is not yet on the app. The UNIKITTY LEGO movie set. And I have all of them.

Really appreciate that people put time into this app. Thanks so much!

**Developer response:** Thank you 😊 
Unikitty (and Vidyo will be added)
