71010 - Minifigures - Series 14 Monsters

[oneknightr]

Who is fetching the highest prices on eBay? Zombie cheerleader? The naughty Tiger lady? Banshee? those have got to be the most desired, right?

eBay completed listings search is your friend.

Prices are all over the place. No big winners- even the zombie businessman can be had for about $7 shipped. I do like the custom scenery though with some of these. Very creative

 Picked up around 40 today.  Got all but 1 and doubles of each.  Among the ones I thought were cooler than I thought they would be is the mad scientist, banshee, spider lady.  There was only one I didn't care to much for and that was bigfoot.... Low detail.

I saw this at a TrU the other day (still @ msrp) and it got me thinking, with the lack of interest of the monster fighter line in the past, could the s14 minifigs have a short run life? Possibly disappearing before Hallowe'en!

[stackables]

Anyone spot these at Meijer yet?  I figured my local store would get these in today since that was the release day.  No luck

If i recall these are actually $5 above MSRP. At least in my area ($30 VS. $25 MSRP), yuck.

That's actually what they scanned at, $30. I thought that was msrp

Wonder if the Simpsons second series will be discounted. There's tons on the shelves around where I am. (And still no refill of series 14 stock )

The Simpsons II was a surprize failure imo, several places still have them instock & even a few have simply put sealed boxes out on the shelves which are as yet untouched (that almost never happens 'round here).  Series 12 & 13 is widely available still, but at least they've been well cherry-picked.  I was beginning to think the cmf line was soon to be on life-support but with series 14 almost all the figs are great & that might be just what the  entire line needed. 

Simpsons were on sale at Chapters b&m store awhile ago 30%

Picked up 2 cases at TRU. Used a $200 reward on each. 

[uberjuku]

Is there a way to check inventory for these at Walmart?

This is the #1 seller on LEGO Shop at Home currently...

No. These posts are basically for posterity & to let the naysayers know what's going on...

[biking_tiger]

I think bestsellers are listed by volume, not $$$, so it only makes sense (the limit is 32 per order). The CMFs are usually #1 on release--including the much maligned Simpsons II.  

I will never naysay the monsters, though. Love 'em.

I believe the CMF line will end in the next couple years.  To me, the Simpsons and Monsters(though cool) is them grasping at straws because they have run out of original ideas for new lines, which is honestly understandable when there are only so many different types of person out there.  Either that, or they start re-hashing figures, which I know would go really well around here.

I think it's got a lot of room to grow, actually. Little kids love these, and with Disney throwing their hat into the ring, there's a lot of room for many more lines. 

I'm also not sure where people think the simpsons series 2 are not good sellers, because that's not the case.  Simpsons Series 1 is also one of the fastest of the Minifig lines to near 2x on amazon.  Just saying.  There is a lot of room for licensed lines down the line.   Lego could time future disney movies with a series, and it will be $$.

The Spice Girls 20th anniversary tour is next year, so there's another promo they can tie-in.

I thought the Friends Pop Star line was the tie in ?

No, those Friends girls have their own clique and hazing rituals.

Are there dot codes on the new packs? Like with series 13.

Yes, I was 16 for 17 (ending up with a 2nd fly monster).

Is there a guide for them? I couldn't find one anywhere
