Diamond Select Toys has announced plans to release a series of Minimates (you know, those little LEGO looking figures) for the 1991 Academy Award-winning Best Picture The Silence of the Lambs. The minimate box set features Clarice Starling, Dr Lecter, Buffalo Bill and Hannibal the Cannibal. All four Minimates feature all-new Art Asylum sculpts and accessories, including Hannibal’s removable straight jacket, Buffalo Bill’s signature Death’s Head Moth and Hannibal the Cannibal’s trademark mask and gurney.

The upcoming “The Silence of the Lambs” Minimates box set will join other MGM Movie Minimates such as “The Good, The Bad & The Ugly,” “For a Few Dollars More,” “Fistful of Dollars,” and “Platoon” and more iconic films – all due out in 2008!
