- ―Detective
The Detective, named Mr. Clue,[1] is a minifigure from the Minifigures theme released in 2011 as one of the sixteen minifigures from 8805 Minifigures Series 5.
Description[]
The Detective has a dark tan printed torso with yellow hands. His torso represents a jacket with a large collar and five buttons on it. The jacket has light tan stripes running across it along with a few light maroon stripes, as well as maroon stripes running from top to bottom. He has dark tan legs, and a deerstalker cap with a light tan and maroon stripes on the sides. He has a curious expression and dark grey sideburns. The detective comes with a dark grey magnifying glass.
Background[]
The Detective is famous for having solved many mysteries, including the Brickster's Baffling Brick-Napping from LEGO Island; the Sam Sinister Switcheroo, presumably involving Slyboots and Baron von Barron from Adventurers; the Mystery of Timmy's Nose from Time Cruisers; and tracking down a missing robot monkey pet from the Racing Drome. In Mystery on the LEGO Express, Mr. Clue is asked by Marilyn Money to find her missing trophy about the LEGO Express.
In LEGO City Undercover, the Detective can be unlocked as a playable character. Like other police, he can use the grapple gun and have full access to the communicator's scanning functions, allowing him to search for clues and investigate robbers. The Detective is also portrayed on a billboard in LEGO City.

Notes[]
- The Detective's bio refers to Tim as "Timmy", which is a nickname commonly used in the LEGO fan community, but does not actually appear in any Time Cruisers media.
- The Detective resembles the very well-known fictional detective, Sherlock Holmes. In LEGO City Undercover, this is further referenced by a nearly-identical minifigure named Doorlock Homes; however, the Detective and Doorlock Homes coexist as separate playable characters and have slightly differently colored clothing.
