Leo is one of the eight new characters in the Lego Friends 2023 wave.
In a new city, Leo embraces both soccer and cooking, surprising his friends with delicious snacks while excelling on the Heartlake High soccer team. His warmth and dedication to his passions form meaningful friendships with those who appreciate his multifaceted interests.
Profile[]
New city, new house, new friends and newly renovated kitchen (courtesy of his two architect parents), Leo is experiencing a lot of things for the first time! Growing up, Leo found comfort in the family kitchen, especially at his grandmother’s side, learning how to make his favorite dishes and practicing recipes until the flavors were just right. As the oldest sibling, Leo is familiar with caring for people and diffusing arguments, but when it comes to his peers, he is anxious to avoid confrontation in order to keep up the good vibes of the group, even at his own expense. When he first arrived in Heartlake City, he worried whether his passion for the culinary arts would be seen as cool, or cringe among the other students. That uncertainty pushes him to connect with his friends via their shared love of the beach; surfing, paddle boarding, and kicking a soccer ball around on the sand with his teammates from the Heartlake High soccer team. Slowly but surely, Leo is getting more comfortable with letting people see this other side of him, especially because everyone is obsessed with the beach snacks he brings every week! Leo may not know it yet, but his warmth and caring personality have already gained him close friends who see the real him.
Personality[]
Leo is very sweet, social, and outgoing. Because he values relationships so highly, he can be something of a people-pleaser. This sometimes leads him to hide his true self, such as concealing his passion for baking from other people.
