longshot Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 Stopped in the local Lego store and they had the last three boxes out........ Apparently there was a long line this morning and they blew through a ton before noon. I focused on the last third of the left hand row for about 10 min and was able to pull 2 Percivals.......... Also grabbed 6 randoms for friend at work since I have a box coming anyway. Yeah buddy......... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I circled to make it easier. Someone correct me if I am wrong, but I believe no series has ever had figures in a consistent location in boxes. They should all be randomized. I'm assuming a machine sorts for 60 of the right ratios, piles them up, and then packs them all at random in a box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to the consistent placement of the Policeman in the last series....I believe you may be wrong.... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ravenb99 Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 It might not be across the entire run but batches I have bought have had the same placement through 10-20 cases or so (Disney and TLBM). Went through 50-100 cases of each of those and they definitely had consistent placement. I do think later runs though it would change some and those cases would be very close to the same as well. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MinifiguresPlus Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 By the way, bad news for those who have not made requests yet! We are completely out of boxes to sell for pre-orders! I can sell sets of 16 still, but I cannot complete any further invoices on the boxes or sets of 6. Sorry! We will do our best to procure more inventory and post again as soon as we have more stock. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I paid my invoice upon receipt, only to have the sale cancelled 20 minutes later.

Dlambert2004 Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 Took my daughter to the HP build event at B&N. They had tons of HP sets, all but the minifigures. When I asked the lady in charge about them, I got an earful about the evils of people buying them up the first day to sell on eBay! she also doubted they would get anymore anytime soon.

Sent from my iPhone using Brickpicker Forum mobile app Ours was also sold out. I'd bought maybe 8 from the box, 2 days later box is gone. Squat showing up at Walmarts, in the middle of resetting Lego aisle for new sets. Target had some but gone also, haven't seen since. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dlambert2004 Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 It’s frustrating that they haven’t anticipated the demand better. Not that I want the market flooded with them, but they need better distribution.

lodibricks Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 Not that we need further confirmation, but I grabbed the back/left 10 packets from a freshly opened box and got Percival. And no, I'm not returning the others. ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

longshot Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 Last night was checking out a local WM for clearance sets and came across a box less than half full. Smooched one pack in the back left and nabbed a Percival.... That makes 4 so far plus a box coming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
