Hedy Lamarr - Custom Design Minifigure

For International Women’s Day 2022, we created a new range of inspiring women in minifig form and Hedy Lamarr is one of them!

Hedy Lamarr was an Austrian-born actress and inventor, whose work would go on to influence the invention of WIFI, GPS and Mobile communications.

She comes with a quote printed on her back that says "I'm a sworn enemy of convention". 

20% of sales of this minifig are split between Kiva and the Chrysalis Youth Empowerment Network.

Kiva is an international non-profit organisation that gives out micro-loans to women around the world to help them with their small businesses. The money is a loan and not a donation. When the loan is paid back to us, we then add the money straight back to the loan pot again, so that more and more women can benefit from these micro-loans. We do not receive interest from these loans. 

The Chrysalis Youth Empowerment Network (Uganda) aim to advance gender equality through girls’ education.
