71010 - Minifigures - Series 14 Monsters

[2x4]

"None" of the Targets carry the new figures yet because Targets get those much later than other stores.

So.... all of you who have found your figures at Target you should return them.  They are clearly Mega Blocks.

So sorry.

Of my three closest targets, only one had them out, but they keep putting them out starting back in August. I should have made more of that and flipped most before they were released.

i used GC on a ebay item that i got a refund for .... the GC will still be good as ebay/paypal will refund to the GC ...

Re: refund from minifiguresplus... I took the refund.  Even tho I paid $200 of it with ebay gift cards, I received full credit back to paypal account (not gift cards).

I have personally had issue with minifigures plus in the past.  I had ordered a sealed case of series 11, and a week later they told me that they did not have any in stock and once they got more, they were raising prices. They offered to cancel and I refused, saying that the sale was an agreement and that I expected my case for the price I paid.  It is not my/your fault that they fraudulently list items without knowing what they have.  In the end, they sent me the case 3 weeks later than promised and I left them negative feedback in return.

I can see why you left a neg, I may have if the same had happen to me.  But I've had a great experience with minifigureplus.  They replied to my emails quickly and after I made my purchase they add the "signiture required" for me no charge.

FYI:  With Paypal; anything over $250 requires such; otherwise it's an automatic lose on claims if not.

TRU sold out online LOL...maybe old news

Found these at Walmart today. Picked up a handful with minimal smooshing and ended up with 12 of the 16 and a couple extras, two werewolfs and two zombie business men and some ghouls. I am in love with this series! I can't wait for my case from minifiguresplus, I wish it was a display case but I plan on opening all of them but one set so it isn't too bad. unless LEGO pulls another Exo Suit these are going to skyrocket by next Halloween, it's like a return of The Zombies from the MF line

I bought a case of Series10 (the one with Mr. Gold).  The box had a broken seal on one side and another that looked like it was glued back on.  When I asked for a refund, I was told that it's not possible.  And, when I posted about this here on Brickpicker, my post was removed because the mod felt that there were too many positives over time with the ebay seller so mine shouldn't be posted...yeah, that makes sense.

Three local targets here.  One has 22 left and they are behind the electronics register.  They must be paid for there and cannot be put in the cart.  Another is out of stock.  And another has online that there are 120, but nothing in the back.  Really weird.  WM's don't have any yet, either.

That was changed to $750 a while ago.

Complaints about specific sellers have pretty much always been removed (for good reason).

Even though your version might be accurate, there are almost always 2 sides to a story. Hurting an otherwise good seller (without getting their version of what happened) would not be fair, and even if both buyer and seller were members of BP (who could post their versions), allowing both sides to continue going back and forth would turn into a nightmare.

Almost have 3 sets from smooshing at the local TRUs and lego. I have ailed to get ANY witches though............ Odd figured that one would have been a plenty. If selling either as a set or individuals do you guys keep them sealed or open em to be sure they are what you assume they are?

Thanx

[Black_towr]

I currently have 2 sealed sets and 3 loose sets. I'm just short a couple of mini's for a fourth loose set.

What seems to be the figure that is fetching the highest $$$ as an individual? The ebay prices are all over the place..............

As far as individual figures go the banshee has gone for as high as $21. The other figures I see being sold individually for around that price are the fly, ghoul, and werewolf. There are a few of the tiger ladies as well but mostly with one other figure. The majority of auctions are for multiple figures so it's hard to gauge actual values. I think the legs on the banshee and ghoul are going to make them big winners short term and the fly guy/plant guy are  the sleepers for this series. The zombies will sell well but settle in the $15-$18 range. 

Im very surprised to see full sets selling over $100 so early, that hasn't been the case with other series so soon after release. I think complete sets wil, surpass series 10 by next Halloween.

Prices can be wild early on - but some metrics can clearly show the early favorites and long shots.

The ghoul is spectre...

[wsuskee]

Still have yet to see a single one in person.  I have made over 25 stops at various Walmarts, Targets, Fred Meyers and Shopko's.  Luckily I have family on the other side of the state where Lego isnt hoarded as much.  The only place they have found them is tru with a limit of 6 per day per family.  

For whomever hoarded all of these in the south sound WA state area I give you my congrats.

No doubt.  Some, even the common ones, sell quickly.  The buy box will clear out of the low-priced figs, and if you're next in line at a much higher price, it will still sell.  I've had luck selling this way with all of them.  I just sold a yeti a few minutes ago for $12 plus shipping, and now the next in line is at $15 plus shipping. I bet that one will sell real soon as well. I sold about 6 Pirate captains for $8 plus shipping before the weekend, but the ship has sailed on that one.

It took a bit of work, but I managed to accumulate 10 complete sets over the last three weeks.  So far, it might be the best move I made all year, I will say.  I'm gunning to get 6 more in 2 more cases.  Let's just say the last three weeks the "everything is awesome" record has been playing on repeat! 

[soopaman15]

Just picked-up a complete display from target with 120 pieces. Should I open all of them and make 6 sets or sell as a whole??? Felt bad taking the whole box, but employees said go ahead and take it!

Learn to smoosh and you make more....

[fossilrock]

Anyway, these came back on lego LEGO Shop at Home.. .the gravy train has ended!

[conceptmachine]

There are an absolute ton of them here.  One store keeps putting out shipper after shipper.  I only bought 2 sets of all plus 2 and 3 of the good ones. There are several stores still holding them.  I check stock and they all have over 200.  What does lego make...250,000 of each figure?

When you really think about it though, 200 is not a lot, especially when that is only 9 complete sets.  There's more than 9 kids in your area that want them...
