LEGO 5001622 Polybag LEGO Store Employee Minifigure Set

It’s been a pretty slow week for LEGO news, but The Brick Owl has turned up a pretty unexpected development in the form of a new, upcoming LEGO polybag promo minifigure. Now, that’s not anything extraordinary in its own right, as we get exclusive LEGO promo minifigures many times per year. No, what makes this particular LEGO promotional polybag set special is that it’s designed to look like people all of us with a local LEGO Store know and love–it’s the LEGO Store Employee Minifigure 5001622 polybag set!

LEGO Minifigures Series 11 71002 Figures Review Part 1

LEGO Gingerbread Man Minifigure from LEGO Series 11 Collectable Minifigures

LEGO Minifigures Series 11 officially launched in the United States (and most other countries) over the weekend, so I headed out to my local Target to pick up the quartet of Series 11 LEGO Minifigures that I wanted the most: Yeti, Gingerbread Man, Scarecrow and Holiday Elf. Well, call it overconfidence or hubris, but the LEGO blind bag I was absolutely certain contained the Holiday Elf actually had a Constable in it when I ripped it open. So this is my LEGO Minifigures Series 11 review of a trio of figures I wanted most, and one I absolutely didn’t…

I was saving my discussion of the release of LEGO 71002 Minifigures Series 11 for the official release date of September 1, 2013–but judging by the various store reports I’ve read and the fact that there are already hundreds of LEGO Minifigures Series 11 sets and individual up for sale on eBay, I might as well jump the gun as well and talk about the release of the first post-Mr. Gold LEGO Minifigures Series…

LEGO SDCC 2013 Green Arrow & Azog Minifigure Price MADNESS!

2013 SDCC LEGO Azog Minifigure Exclusive

Move over Mr. Gold! There’s a new king of the LEGO Minifigures mountain, and it’s a real shocker! Given away for free to some lucky attendees at San Diego Comic Con 2013 last week was an ultra-limited LEGO The Hobbit Azog Minifigure. The minifigure was given away randomly, and couldn’t even be won by raffle like the LEGO Super Heroes could. The result? The most expensive LEGO Minifigure yet–the LEGO Azog Minifigure is now selling for $1500+ on ebay! But while Agog may be the new king, LEGO Green Arrow and friends can’t exactly be considered “cheap” either…

We got a major treat today that I absolutely was not expecting: the first LEGO Minifigures Series 11 Photos!

LEGO Mr. Gold Minifigure Update: Still Selling For $500+ But Why?

How Much Is LEGO Mr Gold Minifigure Worth

Back in April, when the very first LEGO Minifigures Series 10 LEGO Mr. Gold minifigure hit the aftermarket and immediately sold for over a thousand dollars, I was astonished. A limited edition of 5000 is a huge number, well beyond the edition size that most toy companies produce for convention and store exclusives, limited products, and high-end items.

I was absolutely certain that the early super high prices of the LEGO Mister Gold minifigure were just an aberration and prices would quickly crash back down to Earth. But that really does not seem to be happening…

LEGO Minifigures Series 10 Review 71001 2013

LEGO Minifigures Series 10 71001 Warrior Woman Minifigure with Spear and Shield

When you own several thousands action figures of various sizes like I do, shelf space is a luxury. So there’s no way that I can purchase even close to the number of LEGO sets and minifigures I want to each year. That said, I do run a LEGO site, so it’d be futile for me to try to resist the charm and allure of pulling blind bags from every LEGO Minifigures series. Thus, I dropped by the LEGO Store on launch day and picked up a handful of the LEGO Minifigures Series 10 71001 blind bags. With no LEGO Minifigures Series 10 codes available, I had to hope for the best. The verdict? This Minifigures series is so good, I’m going to need more shelves…

It was also an inevitability that we’d discover these confirmed Mr. Gold minifigures sightings for the first time exactly where we did: eBay…

LEGO Minifigures Series 10 Gold Packaging and Inserts Revealed!

LEGO Minifigures Series 10 Packaging Gold Bag Blind Bags

With only a few sets being released per year, there’s not always a lot for LEGO Collectable Minifigures series collectors to look forward to. That’s why, even though LEGO released high-resolution images of LEGO Minifigures Series 10 a few weeks ago, we’ve all been on the edge of our sets with anticipation, wondering just what the packaging for LEGO CMF Series 10 was going to look like, and what kind of inserts would be included. And as of today, now we know–the bags will be gold (for an obvious reason), and there’s an extra insert beyond the checklist we usually get…
