Dr Jedi Posted April 1, 2018 Share Posted April 1, 2018 Perhaps even more surprisingly, I came across a box of these yesterday (already wiped out) at my local TRU Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calmdahn Posted April 1, 2018 Share Posted April 1, 2018 What is this? Also, what's google? The new minifigures series is available. I have a really annoying newbie question. I’ve never gotten into minifigures but I’m considering dipping my toe in the water with this series. What’s the best/cheapest way to make sure one gets two each of the 17 figures?

The price is usually close to RRP. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my PH-1 using Tapatalk well, sort of? maybe the question i'm really asking is, what identifying marking characteristic does each bag have that makes it easy to pick them out? i suppose none. i googled my question and discovered "bump codes" http://www.brickstolife.com/lego-minifigure-series-17-bump-codes-feel-guide/ so maybe somebody will do a series 18 version. i guess i should just buy a box of 60.

I haven’t been to LEGOLAND California though, they might be out there. But they will no doubt be $4.99. They are 4.99 again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

exciter1 Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 Other than Walmart, Target, Lego, and boutique toy stores, does anyone else sell minifigures? Five BelowJust saw this on Facebook.

zig_brickz Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 I am slowly getting to know my new area Walmart, so I knew Monday morning was the time to find fresh stock. The man unloading them was nice enough to pull out the box for me. I also found the police officer in the back left.(couldn't swear on it being third from the back) Now I am trying very hard to not just sell the police officer right now. I am hoping to check the B&N and other stores for another officer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stackables Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 Anyone finding these at Meijer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillyBricks Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 10 minutes ago, stackables said: Anyone finding these at Meijer? According to a woman I met today while smooshing bags, the Meijer nearest me put them out a week early. Of course, "I heard it from a random stranger" does sound a lot like "I heard it from a LEGO store employee," so take that as you will. And, yes, @terrymc4677, that appears to be where the policeman is always located. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stackables Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 I have a feeling that getting these online might give you a better chance of getting the policeman. I still probably will end up with a box. I have too many collectable minifigures ha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Dad Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 And, yes, [mention=5366]terrymc4677[/mention], that appears to be where the policeman is always located. Nope.......Horseshoes and hand grenades, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
