Lego Minifigures 14: "Red Queen"

Another of Bethnoir's loaned minifigures; I think this must be a queen from the Kingdom range, but I have just called her the Red Queen, which brings to mind a character in Lewis Carroll's book, Through the Looking Glass. That Red Queen was a chess piece (another series I had in mind... although my chess set is quite plain), of course, and this regal lady is not.

And before you go calling for their heads to be removed, remember that it was the Queen of Hearts (in Alice in Wonderland) whose catchphrase was "Off with their heads!"

  1. I think she looks rather merciful and sweet in your painting, perhaps she's been misrepresented in literature?

  2. Or she could just be a different red queen!
