 Main Character Ideas

My main character has the trait of being heroic but not bright. This means that I will have to mimic this in some way the physical character. Since the theme of my character is toys, I want my main character to be similar to a Lego figure, and here is why...

They have a very basic range of movement using their arms, legs, and head being the only moving parts. They can also hold things using their cup-like hands. I feel like this links to the fact that the character is not bright by showing a lack of movement, comparing to the other characters in the story that may have more or a free range of movement. 

With the character being Lego, there are a lot of accessories that will go with it, using Lego fire hoses, Lego heads, helmets, and equipment. Below are some items and accessories that would come with a Lego character. 

The character can have a range of heads and facial expressions.

I have researched the film "Lego Movie" to see how they got the static figure to move. They stayed true to the Lego movement as much as they could however they used a lot of animation to make the figure do what it wouldn't be able to do in the real world. The second image below is not possible using a lego figure however, the other photos are possible.
