One LEGO 71048 Series 27 minifigure is proving to be elusive and looking throughout the community, it's not hard to see why it's incredibly popular.
LEGO Castle has been a regular mainstay throughout the Collectible Minifigure Series and 71048 Series 27 continues this tradition with the Wolfpack Beastmaster, following the return of the faction in
"One Kohl's, two Targets, and three Walmarts later, finally hit the jackpot. Scanned all the figs in the bucket and low and behold, no Wolfpack. Had a very helpful employee go to the back and get a new display out for me, and ended up finding 6 before I stopped scanning. Enough for me and my friends who haven’t been as lucky" writes Joey Hoke on Facebook.
It's still surprising to see just how popular this 71048 Series 27 minifigure has been so far, with many in initial community reactions struggling to find this specific character in their hunt for the 12 new minifigures.

The LEGO Castle community has seemingly fallen head over heels with the new minifigure with many people making custom Wolfpack members to greatly expand the Wolfpack in the modern age of LEGO Castle. While it only has a handful of members officially in recent years at the time of writing, there are many more from the community.
Some in the community have picked up as many as six Wolfpack Beastmaster minifigures to amass their army and their efforts have not been in vain, depicting some undoubtedly cool custom characters that will work well in any LEGO Castle display. The side effect of gathering a full of the new wolf element is a nice bonus too.
That new wolf element might be tempting, but unfortunately, it's not compatible with the wool piece to make a wolf in sheep's clothing, despite Reddit user doubtfurious' efforts.
These custom minifigures made from 71048 Series 27 also work well with another recent 2025 release.
