Hi!

These minifigs are as you see a mix from different themes and they are glued
together. It´s a friend who has them but I´m sure I have some also, and I think
they are "made" like this from TLG.
Anyone has an idea to pitch or recognize them?

The thing on the top of the bicorne hat makes them look like keyrings.

A few early key chains had a black plastic chain attached to the head. Don't
know exactly what yours were meant to be.

That seems to be right. The "bowl" on the head doesn't fit any standard
bar but might fit the "ball" on the plastic key chain.

Well first of all, it's a key ring as others have explained.

As for their origin, it is possible they were sold like this in the LEGOLAND
park, but that doesn't make sense as there should've been more of them,
right? In fact, they've popped up every now and then with no concrete backstory,
but because the bicorne was never produced without print like this, and because
the few I've seen seem to show up with LEGO employees in Denmark, I would
hazard a guess that they were internal key chains for some sort of giveaway,
maybe to a specific department. They're a bit unique, but nowadays you can
make a replica, and I've even found some of the vintage ones unprinted in
random Lego lots.

I can ask around here in Billund if anyone can recognize them. Would they possible
be for sale? I would love one, but I understand maybe they want information on
them before they sell them. Tackar!

We can trade Information for a minifig.
Try to get some more info and I can send you one for the cost of a stamp.
Bets regards Mikael
