What I have discovered, whilst cleaning up Farmboy's toys, is the fact that a lot of Lego men now have facial hair. I must admit this seems to be a new development since my own childhood. As I have said before, our house is scattered with Lego and I prefer to think of it as part of the latest Scandinavian design trend.
Lego man facial hair includes the Jimmy Barnes 3 day growth variety. Not sure about the funky head band though.

The next Lego man is super cool. He is channelling Johnny Depp and going for a funky "Pirates Of The Caribbean" type aesthetic. I like it a lot.

The Lego man below is going for the tough guy image. Facial hair is invaluable if you want to be truly scary.

So overall, everywhere I look, I see examples of facial hair. All I can say is - Movember, will you never end?

OMG the hairy Lego men are very scary!! I'm glad I saved my childhood Lego for young City Boy to use in the future, back in the day when the Lego men looked a bit friendlier ... (do they have Lego women? If not, why not?).
They have lego women but not with facial hair!
I think there was "Shave and Fun Ken" when I was growing up... I thought it was awesome.
"Shave and Fun Ken" sounds very special. I was watching Toy Story 3 with the Farmchildren last night and did have a good laugh when Barbie "met" Ken for the first time, complete with "Dream Weaver" playing in the background...
