As it turns out, the level system was changed significantly in the Buy-to-Play update. The Minifigure level is now connected to your current player level, which renders previous Minifigure levels purchased with stars obsolete. Unfortunately, refunds cannot be handed out.

Next to each upgrade that can be purchased with Stars in the Upgrade menu is a number, from 3 to 24. These are player levels that must be reached before each respective upgrade can be unlocked.

For each Tier of upgrades where at least one upgrade is bought on a Minifigure, a checkmark appears in one of the eight boxes located in the character selection menu. This is the Minifigure Upgrade Level, which can help track which Minifigures need upgrades, and is not the same as the Minifigure Level itself.

It takes a little time to adjust to. A friend of mine shared this with me back in March, so I had some advance notice...but I still wasted Stars on levels anyways. :P
