Title: Anyone Collect Lego Mini Figs?
Post by: Lady Starflower on February 13, 2015, 05:38:58 PM
Anyone collect the Lego blind bag mini figures?

My son loves them so of course the collector in me has to get them all :lol: so far we've been collecting series 13 and our TRU just got in series 12.

I feel very victorious right now. My son really wanted the hot dog guy from series 13 and I spent a good amount of time going through boxes and I finally found one!! :cheer:

haha my son LOVES them but were not a serious collector. I usually just pick up one or two when I happen to be out. Today I got him some from 13, he got some kinda fighter guy (armor) and the carpenter, I thought the hotdog guy was pretty funny lol.

I have a few from the Simpsons.  I love lego but I gave all of mine away ages ago.

Hahaha yes they are a bit cheaper aren't they. I like them, I think they are cute. I'll definitly encourage this collection for my son.

I'm into LEGO.  I don't really collect minifig series though - but I do have all of the Simpsons one and the LEGO Movie one.

I did, however, pick up the Unicorn Girl figure from Series 13, replaced the head for one that looks just like me, gave it a cape and wand (to make it like Trixie).  I put it in a small display case by itself.  I really, really like this figure :D

Fun Fact - The one that is responsible for designing this particular figure is a huge MLP fan (of classic and new).  I don't know if he posts here, I'll let them remain anonymous in that case - but hunt it down if you are an MLP collector, for it had that thought in mind when it went thru the designing stage.  :D

That was the first one my son got. He was thrilled. :)
That's really neat that it was inspired by MLP

LOL!  AWESOME!

I pick up mini figs for my husband and leave one as a present every now and then- just for fun!  He likes the lumberjack but I'm not sure what series it was from.

I collect minifigs! I used to put them all on display on my desk, but ran out of space - then I started my lego city and now I use them as citizens in it. The city is sort of based off Paragon City from a game I played, which had themed superpowered gangs, so everytime I get a bunch of doubles or triples, they become a new gang.

The Tarzan ones are called the Urban Savages and I have a group of them mugging a nerd figure behind Wonder Woman on a bench right now, for an idea.

I have two custom minifigs I made during a visit to a Lego store in California, plus quite a few from the Lego Movie. Otherwise I don't really collect them unless something really catches my interest.

My boss, on the other hand, has over 800 minifigs. He is quite serious about his Lego... He actually got me into Mixels so I've got a few of those that I really like. And he showed me some upcoming Scooby Doo sets that I might need... I never realized I'd enjoy Lego more as an adult than I did as a kid.

Nice. I love hearing about everyone's collection. My son has about 8 right now. I think they are pretty neat.

My husband has a few. Although he rarely keeps them with their original accessories. They must be as he wants them to be. I like Chewbacca best.

I have some from the lego movie:  Lord Business, Emmet with the piece of resistence, Batman (but he actually came from a lego batman building set but he looks better than the Lego movie batman figure), Virtruviuos, and Wildstyle.  I bought these from amazon and found sellers who knew exactly what was in the bag so some of the figures were already opened and some weren't, guessing they looked up codes.  I really want the nice vampire figure and I saw this awesome haunted castle building set that comes with the vampire and other supernatural creatures, but it's over $100.  But having the vampire would be great too.  However, these figures are really tiny and I probably paid more than I should for some of these, especially Virtruvious, I think he was $20, but I wanted to get what I wanted--no mystery.

I collect them. I got hooked on Lego after watching The Lego Movie last summer. Brought down the old Legos from the attic and started buying new sets and the minifigs. I think I have at least 100 minifigs by now and it's been less than a year :lol:
The hotdog guy and the unicorn are my faves from series 13. That is really cool the unicorn is actully inspired by MLP! I had no idea, I just wanted it badly because it reminds of MLP :)

I collect the hockey players (they aren't the actual Lego brand.) My son has a bunch of the Star Wars ones. I just bought a set of 24 super heroes for his birthday next month.

I feel very victorious right now. My son really wanted the hot dog guy from series 13 and I spent a good amount of time going through boxes and I finally found one!! :cheer:

*dies a little inside* Noooo, stop hunting, there are a couple coming your way! ;)

I wish they released some Friends style minifigure blind bags. Especially ones of the Disney Princess figures.

Not actual lego but I'm looking forward to the Monster High Mega Bloks minifigures.

My husband always gets the mini-figs correct by feeling them in the bags.  It's absolutely crazy but he has never been wrong.
Series 13 - he got the spaceman and the unicorn! then we had a discussion of whether the white horn or the gold horn was better-looking.  :)

I only have the Lego Movie Cuckoo Palace set (don't care for Emmett and Executron, but I just had to have Wlydstyle and Princess Unikitty and that cute castle). I'm thinking about picking up a few of the Disney Lego sets (Cinderella's castle, Rapunzel's tower and of course, the Frozen palace).

Clonecommander is a huge Lego head but not so much the mini figs unless it is related to the Clone Wars or Clones in general.  I think she also has some of the Bionicle mini figures they did years ago.

I collect the mini figs but have been having such a hard time finding them in stores recently. We still have so many of the last series XD
