Citizen Brick, an independent retailer in Chicago, designed the mini-figure and donated all of the money raised from the sales of it to Direct Relief.

Along with the Lego-like version of the Ukrainian leader, customers could also purchase tiny Lego-like Molotov cocktails.

A spokesperson for Lego told Fox Business, "This initiative has absolutely nothing to do with the LEGO Group. It’s the work of an independent retailer which has no connection to the company." Citizen Brick posted a follow-up message after the sale, announcing that all the mini-figures and cocktails had sold out.
