The Child [1] was first released in 1979 and was included in a Homemaker themed set. This figure has been obtained by The Complete Collection. It is archived with the Vault ID Number hmk-1979-01-04. This figure type can be found in the BrickLink catalogue and is listed as soc033.
Appearance
The Child has short brown hair, and is dressed in a plain blue jumper and white trousers.
History
The Child was first included in set 268 | Family Room in the Homemaker, and is depicted sitting on the couch and later on the floor holding a 1x2 red tile (perhaps meant to be a book?)
Twenty-one years later this figure made a reappearance, this time as an athlete playing for an Americas Football Team. It is important to note that the re-issued figure in 2000 is created from pieces of completely different mold types.
Any connection between the characters is certainly non-canonical as the " Homemaker" universe implies minifigures are juvenile versions of maxifigures, and minifigures in the LEGO universe proper are fully developed.
While first only used for character like Yoda, Dobby, and Ewoks, the introduction of "short" legs in 2002 gave the opportunity the create minifigures of shorter, or child stature. Later when babies were introduced in 2016 (unless one counts Maggie Simpson from 2014) were we shown the full life cycle of a minifigure. 2018 saw the inclusion of "medium" legs which gave further diversity.
This figure was assembled from vintage parts by The Collector.
