Minifig Match
Upload a BrickStore BSX file and instantly see which minifigures you can assemble from your parts inventory, including BrickLink price guide data and seller insights.
Minifig Match lets you find out which LEGO minifigures you can build from the parts in your BrickStore inventory. Upload a BSX file and Minifig Match will show you every minifigure you can fully or partially assemble, along with how many of each part you have and — when your BrickLink account is connected — current market prices and selling advice per minifigure and part.

Before You Start
Requirements
- A BSX file exported from BrickStore containing your parts inventory.
- (Optional) A connected BrickLink account to enable price guide data and seller insights.
Exporting a BSX file from BrickStore
- Open BrickStore
- Open the inventory you want to check
- Go to File → Save As and choose the BSX format
How to Use
- Navigate to Minifig Match in the menu
- Click "Choose file" or drag and drop your BSX file onto the upload area
- If your BrickLink account is connected, optionally check "Fetch price guide & seller insights via BrickLink"
- Click "Check minifigures" to start the analysis
The results appear as soon as your parts have been matched. If you enabled the price guide, each minifigure first shows a loading placeholder while its prices and seller insights are fetched from BrickLink in the background; the real data then replaces the placeholder in place, one minifigure at a time — you don't have to wait for everything to finish before you can start reading.
Understanding the Results
Completeness
Results are grouped into two sections: Complete and Partially complete. Only minifigures for which you have at least 75% of the required parts are shown, so the results stay useful instead of listing minifigures you'd have to buy almost entirely.
- Complete — You have all the parts needed to assemble this minifigure
- Partially complete — You have at least 75% of the parts, but you're still missing one or a few
Parts table
Each minifigure shows a breakdown of its required parts. Parts highlighted in red are the ones you don't have enough of. Clicking a red part name takes you directly to that part on BrickLink so you can look it up or buy it.
When the price guide is enabled, the table also shows a Sold avg. column with the average price that part recently sold for. Clicking that price opens a detailed breakdown with more pricing information and seller advice for that specific part.
Identifiers
Each minifigure shows its BrickLink ID, Rebrickable number, and BrickOwl ID where available.
Price Guide & Seller Insights
When your BrickLink account is connected and price guide fetching is enabled, the checker pulls in current market data from BrickLink for each minifigure and each of its parts. This shows up as a price block inside each minifigure card.
The condition used for pricing (New or Used) is based on the parts in your BSX file: if any part you own is marked as Used, the whole minifigure is priced as Used.
Sales data (last 6 months)
This section shows what the minifigure or part has actually sold for on BrickLink over the past six months:
| Field | What it means |
|---|---|
| Avg. | The average sale price across all transactions |
| Qty avg. | A more reliable average that accounts for how many units were sold in each transaction — so a bulk sale of 10 pieces has more influence than a single sale |
| Min / Max | The cheapest and most expensive it sold for |
| Sales | How many separate sales took place |
| Total qty | How many units were sold in total |
| Most recent sale | The price and date of the last sale |
| Monthly avg. price | How the average price moved month by month over up to the last twelve months, with an indicator showing whether it went up or down compared to the previous month with sales. Months with no sales are shown as a dash (—), and empty months before the first recorded sale are skipped |
Current listings
This section shows what sellers are asking for right now on BrickLink:
| Field | What it means |
|---|---|
| Avg. | The average asking price across all active listings |
| Qty avg. | A weighted average of asking prices based on how many units each seller has listed |
| Min / Max | The cheapest and most expensive active listing |
| Listings | How many sellers currently have this listed |
| Total qty | How many units are available in total across all sellers |
Seller insights
Below the price data, the checker shows a summary of actionable insights to help you decide when and how to sell:
| Insight | What it means |
|---|---|
| List price | A suggested price range to list at. The lower end keeps you competitive with the cheapest listing; the upper end reflects what buyers have actually been paying. Listing anywhere in between gives you a good chance of selling at a fair price. |
| Supply pressure | An estimate of how many months it would take to sell all current stock at the current sales rate. A low number (under 2 months) means the item sells quickly and you can ask a higher price. A high number (over 6 months) means the market is oversupplied and prices are likely being pushed down. |
| Price trend | Whether the average sale price has been going up or down over the past six months. A rising trend means demand is growing or supply is shrinking — a good sign for sellers. |
| Market vs. sales | A comparison between the cheapest active listing and what buyers have actually been paying. If listings are above the sales average, the market may be overpriced. If listings are below, there is competitive pressure driving prices down. |
Selling as a complete minifigure vs. parting out
Below the price guide block, the checker shows the total estimated value if you were to sell each required part individually, and compares it to the minifigure's own sale price. This tells you at a glance whether it's more profitable to sell the minifig complete or to part it out.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why don't I see all my minifigures?
The checker only shows minifigures for which a part list is available in the database. Newly released minifigures may not yet be included — the database is updated regularly.
Why is a minifigure showing as incomplete when I think I have all the parts?
A few possible reasons:
- Part numbers differ — BrickLink sometimes uses different part numbers than what's in your BSX file. Check whether the part has known variants.
- Color mismatch — The checker matches on exact colors. A part in a slightly different shade won't count.
- Quantity — If you have the part split across multiple lots in your BSX file, the quantities are combined automatically. Double-check the exact quantity the minifigure requires.
Why is no price shown for some parts?
Some parts have never been sold or listed on BrickLink in the condition of your inventory (New or Used). This is most common for very rare or recently released parts.
The checker says it's running but nothing happens
If the progress indicator stays active for more than a few minutes, try refreshing the page and uploading your file again. Very large BSX files can occasionally take longer to process.
A minifigure I know exists isn't showing up
The database is refreshed regularly. If a recently released minifigure is missing, it will most likely appear after the next update.
