Minifigures – Taoist priest battling Jiangshi (LEGO Alternative)

Taoist priest and five figures dressed as Jiangshi (Chinese “hopping” vampires/zombies).

Here’s a description of the figures in English:

The Taoist Priest Figure (one figure, shown in action poses and also in the lineup):

• A Taoist priest (male) character, likely inspired by characters such as those played by Lam Ching-ying in “Mr. Vampire” films. He is wearing a yellow traditional robe with purple trim and details, often associated with Taoist priests in fiction.

The Jiangshi (Chinese Hopping Vampire/Zombie) Figures (five figures in the lineup):

• Five Jiangshi figures. They are all depicted in traditional Qing Dynasty official attire (dark blue or black robes with a circular embroidered insignia on the chest, and a black official’s hat with a red tassel). This is the classic appearance for Jiangshi in popular culture.
• Their faces are pale with wide, staring eyes, and some have bared teeth or fangs, characteristic of Jiangshi.
• Jiangshi are typically depicted with their arms outstretched, ready to hop, which is how these figures are often posed.

Collectively, they represent a classic scene or characters from Chinese horror-comedy films featuring a Taoist priest battling Jiangshi.
