What Is Army Building in Minifigures?

Army building is the practice of collecting many matched minifigures — often dozens — to create an impressive military force or large battle scene. Instead of one or two characters, army builders field whole squads, platoons, or armies of similar figures.

The key to army building is buying in bulk for a low cost per figure and keeping figures consistent so they read as one unit. Themed bulk sets are the most efficient way to do it. Browse bulk sets to start your army.
