Pre-order your The LEGO Ninjago Movie minifigures
Posted by Huw,
As you may have seen on social media we've received a box of The LEGO Ninjago Movie minifigures and our review is being prepared as I type. In the meantime I thought it would be useful to post a scan of the collector's sheet.
As usual, a box contains 60 bags which thus means there are three complete sets of 20 figures in it. So, no rarities to worry about.
If you can't be doing with bag feeling and want to guarantee getting a set with a minimum of fuss, you can now pre-order a complete set of 20 from Minifigure Maddness for just €74.99.
Minifigure Maddness proprietor Conor writes "This Month we are offering an exclusive Brickset promo for the new LEGO Ninjago Movie complete collection of 20 minifigures for only €74.99 when you enter code Brickset12 at check-out. We offer express shipping worldwide and secure payments by PayPal with no fees. "
They are due in the shops on August 1st.

Yeah, I would, but unfortunately that's a little too much for about ten minifigures that I actually want and ten others I'll display for no reason. Boy, do I want that Cole, though.
Including postage to Australia it works out to A$6.10 each. Not unreasonable but not cheap either.
It's a shame that Connor couldn't be bothered to reply to my email regarding July's mystery minifigure. There is no clue for July's, if indeed there is a July minifig, and the webpage for those figures still only has mention of June. Perhaps they've abandoned the idea. Whatever, not great customer service.
^^ Contact us at admin @minifiguremaddness.com and we will be happy to help regarding this.
Ordered for convenience and the fact the cost is not excessive. Needed two sets (two kids) but noticed the promo code only reduced the cost of one set, so it was one set at 74 and one at 79, might want to look at that, unless i missed a T's & C's thing. Still easier the fondling packages in an overcrowded store :)
@AddictedToStyrene Oh, I didn't think international postage would be so cheap! That's less than $6, which is better than most local postage prices.
I used this service for the past two CMFs and was incredibly pleased. It ends up being cheaper for me than buying them in the store. I highly recommend them.
I'll probably skip this series though due to lack of interest.
Wait.. 75 Euros? That's £65.48. If I go to the stores, they're £3 each, so £60. So for the time saving of not having to bag feel we're saving all of £5.48, not including the cost of shipping... which is 4 Euros, or another £3.50.
£9 for 'time saving'? Personally I'd rather put that towards a new set, but do have to admit that's pretty darn reasonable.
Time is money...
Got to agree with Baby Yoda, I really want some of them but there are also lot uninteresting ones, especially since some are almost identical with the ones appearing in sets. That is a lot of money for a couple of minifigs I actually want.
At today's USD/EUR exchange rate the total price works out to just under $4.71 per figure. That's roughly 40 cents per figure more than what I'd pay for a figure plus state sales tax, and that's also before adding on shipping. So if you want the whole set, this seems like a good deal.
For me, it's worth knowing, today, that I'll have the whole set by September, without the uncertainty of bag feel (or online order of mystery bags from LEGO online), and without a round trip of about 2 and a half hours out and back to the nearest LEGO store. YMMV of course!
Hmmm... Not unreasonable at all. Seems to work out to about CAD$5.45/figure + shipping. But probably only makes sense if you do indeed want all 20 minifigs.
Considering I only want half the set, its not worth it for me. Though as said, £9 for a guaranteed full set is pretty reasonable, considering travel costs and time span for some people.
That said, I've never gotten a bag feel wrong yet, and the ones I want have very obvious elements in them to look for. So I'll be creeping out people at my local toy store come release day. lol.
Not interested in these other than for the dual-molded white/black legs I could use for Imperial officers, but if I were collecting I'd certainly use that service. I don't know how you guys feel 'em - every so often I feel something obvious that tells me there's no way it's the one I'm looking for, but my accuracy is 50% at best, and probably more like 25%.
That's pretty much how you do it TIE-Guy. You just feel for an easily identifiable element that's unique to the set. If that element matches another, there will usually be a second item to narrow it down.
IE with this series, the shark army guys. All of them have the fish element, but only one will have the spikey mace. One the stud shooter and one the flame element.
I'm with you, TIE-Guy. I'm no good at feeling up packages either. Although, to be fair, I haven't done a whole lot of it, so maybe it's something you get better at with practice.
Man, I really hope we get these here. I could use any of them, particularly given the impossiblity of any other set appearing (and being buyable)...
I found them at the Target I work at. Some ding dong flow team member stocked them on the side cap with the LBM ones. I bought 4.
i also found some at target, i got number 16
