“In his traditional wear, the Mexican embraces LEGO fans with his rich historic culture. It's a great minifigure, made suitable for a wild west setting by putting it along with the Series 1 Cowboy and Tribal Hunter, or even for a costume party. With his iconic sombrero with... More golden pattern around the brim and colorful poncho design, he is ready to shake his maracas in the fiesta.”

“My biggest issue with this figure is the fact that he claims to be a Mariachi. From the neck up, that works fine but from the neck down, that’s a different story. Instead of being dressed up in an elaborate costume, this is a guy in a poncho wearing a sombrero. This figure... More just feels slightly off. He’s not quite a Mariachi and feels like he should be paired up with the Cowboy.”

Can you hear that? It may be hard to hear at first, but keep listening and soon you’ll hear the sound of a pair of bright red maracas rattling out a fun and festive tune. That’s how everybody knows that the Maraca Man is on his way!

When the Maraca Man dances through the street shaking his maracas, everyone around him finds themselves cheering up. Where he comes from is a mystery and where he’ll go next is too, but whenever he’s near, people smile, clap, and tap their feet to the beat!
