Fairy Godmother

LEGO Shrek · 71053 No. 11
🧚

The Fairy Godmother does not grant wishes; she sells them, on terms she sets herself.

Data Matrix codes: Fairy Godmother

One of these codes is printed on the bottom of the box, next to the barcode.

LEGO prints a different code for each production batch and region, which is why one item has several. The scanner recognises all 3.

About this minifigure

In Shrek 2 she runs a potion factory and has the ear of the court in Far Far Away, all of it serving one very specific plan: putting her son, Prince Charming, on the throne. Her Holding Out for a Hero number is among the best-remembered scenes in the series.

If somebody at home collects villains, this is a top-shelf entry. A villain in candy colours plays quite differently from a monster with fangs, and for the youngest she is simply a fairy with a wand, which works well outside the film too.

In a row on a shelf what matters is the pair. Fairy Godmother and Prince Charming only tell the story of the second and third films together, and one without the other leaves an obvious hole in the collection.

Did you know: "Holding Out for a Hero", as performed by the Fairy Godmother, is a cover of Bonnie Tyler's 1984 hit.
