The LEGO 41574 set is part of the LEGO Mixels series, released under Series 8 in 2016. This particular set features Compax, a character from the Trashoz tribe, known for their role as sanitation and garbage collectors within the Mixel world. Compax is designed with a waste compactor theme, reflecting his tribes duty of keeping their world clean and tidy.
The set consists of a small number of pieces, typically around 60, which when assembled, creates a compact, articulated figure with a distinctive dumpster-like appearance. Compax is characterized by his bright and vibrant color scheme, with elements of green and grey, simulating the look of a trash bin. Unique to this figure are its features that include a movable jaw, which acts as a compactor, and gripping hands to hold onto the garbage.
As with all Mixels, Compax can be combined with other characters from the same series to create larger, more complex figures. Specifically, Compax can be combined with his Trashoz tribe mates Sweepz and Gobbol to form a larger Mixel. Each set also comes with a Nixel, small creatures that serve as antagonists to the Mixels.
The LEGO 41574 Compax set is admired by fans for its creativity, playability, and role in encouraging environmental awareness through its theme. Like all Mixels, it provides a unique blend of humor and functionality, making it appealing to both young builders and seasoned LEGO enthusiasts. Although the Mixels series has been discontinued, sets like 41574 Compax remain popular among collectors and fans of the theme.
