"I dare say it’s your lucky day!"
―Mr. Gold

Mr. Gold is a 71001 Minifigures Series 10 minifigure released in 2013. He is well known for being extremely rare, due to the fact that only 5,000 of them were ever made.

Description

Mr. Gold is coloured almost completely in chrome golden. He has a golden top hat, a golden face, a golden torso that looks like a tuxedo, and golden legs. His hands, which are white, are the only things that are not gold.

Notes

  • There are only 5,000 Mr. Gold minifigures in existence.
  • He is the second minifigure in the Minifigures theme that has a title name with a top hat, the first being Mr. Good and Evil.
  • He's most likely inspired by Abraham Lincoln, which probably inspired by his appearance in pennies.
  • He was made to celebrate the 10th series of the Minifigures theme.
  • He has a chrome gold finish, as pointed out in the LEGO Minifigures: Character Encyclopedia.
  • He is packaged with two bags. A clear bag inside the foil package holds him safely.
  • The diamond on his staff and his white gloves are the only parts of his ensemble that are not exclusive or chrome.
  • On minifigures.LEGO.com, when his bio is open, there is a special VIP code that comes with him in the package and you enter it there. When the code is entered, you can pull up a special "certificate" with a picture of Mr. Gold and enter where in the world you are to add a pin to the "Find Mr. Gold" map on the site.
  • He is the first and only minifigure to have a golden top hat.
  • He has the highest stats out of all Minifigures, which was also the highest stats possible.
  • Some Mr. Gold figures have not been registered on LEGO.com, so it is unknown if they have all been found or not.
