“Roxie is a strong female role model, and it was important we created an iconic character that children can look up to – literally!

Gavin and his family loved LEGOLAND® Windsor Resort's Minifigure Speedway. The theming and attention to detail are incredible. You are met at the track by the world's tallest minifigure, Roxie, who stands at an impressive 30 feet and weighs more than six tonnes.
Minifigure Speedway is a steel twin shuttle roller coaster currently located at Legoland Windsor in Windsor, Berkshire, England, UK. The name and theme were revealed on 15 November 2023. In March 2024, Legoland announced that the coaster would open on 6 April. The roller coaster was manufactured by Zierer.
A minifigure is 4cm (just over 1.5 inches) tall. Since they are such different proportions to a human I tend to think that if they were scaled up to human size an adult minifigure would be 4ft tall, with a dwarf/child minifigure using the short legs being around 3ft tall.
The LEGO Minifigure Factory allows shoppers to design and create a unique LEGO minifigure – the perfect souvenir from your visit or gift for someone else. There are endless combinations to mix and match!* *Charge applies, see in store for details.
The plans showed two separate shuttle coaster tracks, with layouts broadly mirroring one another, along with additional elements including a loading platform, operators cabin, queue line and perimeter fencing.
