LEGO figures in Scale models By Tom Alphin, author of the bestselling book The LEGO Architect, which explores how to build 7 styles of architecture using LEGO. This page shows the calculations behind my article in issue #13 of Bricks Magazine. (June 2016.) This article shows you how I calculated the "scale" for various LEGO figures as they compare to the size of real-live humans.
(This. They connect to LEGO System Bricks, and usually consist of 9-10 parts, though certain unique minifigures in some themes can have as few as 6 or more than 10 depending on the character they are intended to portray. The minifigure was designed by LEGO model builder Jens Nygaard Knudsen, along with other early minifigure designs.

Lego Minifigures are all the same size at 1.5 inches tall. Duplo figures or other characters from different Lego sets (like Lego Juniors) will have different sizes but all of the traditional Lego Minifigures will be the same size.
This article is about LEGO figure. For the theme, see Minifigures. Minifigures are small (size is specifically 4 cm, 1.575 inches, or four bricks tall), plastic-made figures.
They connect to normal LEGO Bricks, and usually consist of ten parts. The minifigure was designed by LEGO model builder Jens Nygaard Knudsen, along with other early minifigure designs. But the LEGO Group took things a step further by creating a new leg size for the character: medium legs.
The important distinction between these and the barely smaller small legs is that they actually bend, like regular legs.

It goes over everything you need to know about the LEGO Minifigures including their size or scale, the first LEGO Minifigure, the rarest Minifigure, the best place to buy, and other important answers you should know. The typical height of a LEGO® minifigure is 4 centimeters or 1.57 inches. How do we get a scale from this number? Well, the average height of all the men on the planet is roughly 5'9″ or 175 centimeters (cm), so if a minifig is 4cm 4cm/175cm = (4cm/4) / (175cm/4) = 1/43.75 or 1/44, considering women are a smidge shorter the right scale is roughly 1:45 or 1/45.
Detailed description of project Yesterday's project aimed to better understand the proportions of common Lego elements as well as the proportions within the brick design itself. For today's project, I want to estimate "Minifig Scale" by measuring the proportions of a minifig and the average dimensions of a human.
