LEGO Ideas 21345 Polaroid OneStep SX-70 Camera almost included an exclusive minifigure, who instead lives on in another part of the set.
The upcoming 21345 Polaroid OneStep SX-70 Camera includes the camera recreation, a film pack, an extra tile to change the specification of the camera as well as three photo elements, but it was once going to include an additional detail – a minifigure of Polaroid Founder Edwin Land.
“I think the only other thing I may have mentioned was a little Edwin Land figure,” says Polaroid CEO Oskar Smolokowski in an interview with The Verge when asked about his notes for the set. “That would’ve been awesome.”
While no such minifigure is included in 21345 Polaroid OneStep SX-70 Camera, a minifigure depiction of Edwin Land is featured on one of the three photos, giving us an idea of what we could have expected from his minifigure.
He would have joined the likes of Walt Disney in 43230 Walt Disney Tribute Camera as historically important people for their respective companies as minifigures as well as the growing list of real people who exist as minifigures.
21345 Polaroid OneStep SX-70 Camera launches on January 1, 2024, for £69.99 / $79.99 / €79.99 and pre-orders are open now.
