The 'Hands in Pockets' is an old version of the Lego minifigure. It is so named because of its posture and the way its arms 'fade' into its torso, and it has no hands. This old minifigure, which came in many types, is also known as 'the extra', because it has no important features and it is like an extra on a TV programme - no details are seen, just the fact that they are there.The HiP paved the way for minfigure-scale building. It introduced the minifig head, along with some minifig headpieces (including the 'police officer hat', which is still in use today). Sadly, in 1978, Lego designed the modern-day minifigure and the Extras were discontinued.
