Custom Piece – national flag of Mexico – 3D Print for LEGO Minifigure

This item is an accessory for a toy minifigure, consisting of a national flag mounted on a small black flagpole with a base.

The flag shown is the national flag of Mexico.

The design is a vertical tricolor with the national coat of arms in the center. The elements of the flag are deeply symbolic:

• The green vertical stripe on the left represents hope.
• The white vertical stripe in the middle represents unity.
• The red vertical stripe on the right represents the blood of the national heroes.
• The most important feature is the Mexican Coat of Arms emblazoned in the center of the white stripe. This emblem depicts a golden eagle perched on a prickly pear cactus while devouring a rattlesnake. This powerful image is based on the Aztec legend regarding the founding of their capital city, Tenochtitlan (the site of modern-day Mexico City).

The flag piece itself is a small, printed plastic tile. This accessory is perfect for representing a Mexican character, a scene at an embassy or international event, or for educational displays.
