Robert8 Posted July 23, 2016 Posted July 23, 2016 (edited) 8BrickMario could you update the first post with the real names? By the way, they actually used the word DEVIL. That's surprising. And the Dog Show Winner gets a coherent name! And Rogue is the real name.... I thought he was going to be called Medieval Bandit or something. But in my mind is just too late to rename the Arabian Knight as Desert Warrior Edited July 23, 2016 by Robert8 Quote
1980-Something-Space-Guy Posted July 23, 2016 Posted July 23, 2016 I believe he went to the front of the store and checked the computer. Thanks! This morning I noticed the figures on TRU's website, so I noticed they said the figures were available in all the TRUs in my area (including the one I previously visited ). I called a different TRU and they had them. I got there this afternoon, and they had just put the box out today. Apparently the box was untouched! My wife and I got everything we wanted. We also took 4 of the 5 banana guys in the box (going to give some away to some people we know that want them), and the other banana guy we gave to a TRU worker that really wanted one. Quote
josykay Posted July 23, 2016 Posted July 23, 2016 Ohh the Imp and that Vampire boy are adorable. I need those, the Ice queen, and multiple rogues. <3 Quote
AmperZand Posted July 24, 2016 Posted July 24, 2016 (edited) It is possible to get the baby to be held it is just a matter of balancing. Thanks. I was wondering about that. It's the same way I had a minifigure hold a microfigure-as-a-baby a few years ago: http://www.brickshel...kings_court.jpg Thanks! Thief, burglar, scoundrel in war playing games....no wonder I had no idea who that was! (Dungeons and Dragons was never my cup of tea.) But I had heard the word used to describe a scoundrel or thief before, which did not help me ID the fig at all BTW! In one of the earlier editions of Dungeons & Dragons there was an occupation (termed a "class" in the game) called "thief". In later editions, the publishers wanted to dispel the notion that the game encouraged wrongdoing such as stealing, so changed the name to "rogue". They claimed at the time that they had updated the name to reflect the increasing variety of characters who fell into the category, not just thieves. Whatever the reason, it stuck and spread to other games and entertainment media. Edited July 24, 2016 by AmperZand Quote
Amazing Bricks Posted July 24, 2016 Posted July 24, 2016 Checking my target right now, wish me luck! Quote
Sir Gareth Posted July 24, 2016 Posted July 24, 2016 January is so far away...... Keep waiting. The LEGO Batman Movie is the next collectible minifigure series. Quote
Cagast Posted July 24, 2016 Posted July 24, 2016 Keep waiting. The LEGO Batman Movie is the next collectible minifigure series. Will there be a series based on The Ninjago movie? I really hope not. I hate how they are forcing series for every movie. But maybe that's just because I like regular series more. Quote
telaruhn Posted July 24, 2016 Posted July 24, 2016 No luck after looking at 2 Targets, a Walmart and a TRU in my area. So, having been emptyhanded, I caved and bought some off the TRU website. The first time I've bought them randomly... ever. They had a limit of 5 per customer, which is actually okay considering there was free shipping with orders over $19 and the total was $19.95 for 5 of them. Basically, you get 5 for the same price as going in store. Not bad... As if the offer was made for that reason. After the last couple of series, I've found that I don't mind doubles. There are a lot in this series I wouldn't mind getting multiple of. Can't wait to get them! Quote
Amazing Bricks Posted July 24, 2016 Posted July 24, 2016 Hah, I got some! It was at toysrus however. Got 4, the important ones I needed. I'll definitely be back soon to finish the series. Quote
Actor Builder Posted July 24, 2016 Posted July 24, 2016 Got 4, the important ones I needed. Were those four...The basis of something Legendary, Mythical and Marvelous? Quote
SirBlake Posted July 24, 2016 Posted July 24, 2016 Actually, it's the opposite. We get almost 0 info about the Jan waves until TLG unveils them. It happened with Series 9, TLM Series, Series 13 and Series 15. Ah, thanks for settling me straight. The wait and speculation begins! Quote
Tech Artist Posted July 24, 2016 Posted July 24, 2016 The January wave should be in January right and there is nothing between now and then that could change that? If that is the case I'll save to get the entire set when it comes out like I was going to for Series 16(still plan to as funds allow). Quote
jjr_2009 Posted July 24, 2016 Posted July 24, 2016 Can't wait to get my hands on some of these--I haven't been able to find them in my area yet. I know my daughter is going to love the new dog that comes with the Dog Show Winner! For me personally, I love the hiker--a great design for such a simple concept. Quote
Amazing Bricks Posted July 24, 2016 Posted July 24, 2016 Were those four...The basis of something Legendary, Mythical and Marvelous? I did get the wildlife photographer, but only one. I do in fact have that penguin, just need a couple of more. Quote
Silverwolf28 Posted July 24, 2016 Posted July 24, 2016 I got a few more at my Lego store on Friday. I picked up cyborg, rogue, penguin, dog show winner and pirate. I'm done with this series. Quote
K_Tiger Posted July 24, 2016 Posted July 24, 2016 Keep waiting. The LEGO Batman Movie is the next collectible minifigure series. Pfft, I'm kind of excited for that one, actually. Will there be a series based on The Ninjago movie? I really hope not. I hate how they are forcing series for every movie. But maybe that's just because I like regular series more. The Fall/September '17 CMF is reported to be for the Ninjago movie. Spring/May series should be regular ol' S.17. Quote
Kodan Black Posted July 24, 2016 Posted July 24, 2016 Hit my TRU while out today and got their last 3. I know 1 was the Queen who I wanted, not sure on the other 2. I'm hoping for dog show judge or hiker since I didn't get them yet. Other 2 were female boxer and babysitter, both ones I didn't have! About the only one I'd be after is the hiker, but if I don't find him no biggie, got the ones I most wanted! Quote
Anonknee Muss Posted July 24, 2016 Posted July 24, 2016 - First off, they mention the non-existent game codes. - The Imp's official name is Cute Little Devil. - The Arabian Knight is Desert Warrior. - The Dog Show Judge is Dog Show Winner. That actually makes a lot of sense! Thanks! Has anyone made that penguin loop yet? I might just buy a bunch off brick link... Quote
rob-ot5000 Posted July 24, 2016 Posted July 24, 2016 Has anyone made that penguin loop yet? I've only got three penguins so far Quote
Sorrelon Posted July 24, 2016 Posted July 24, 2016 Has anyone made that penguin loop yet? Asking the real questions here. The legendary penguin loop needs to be made. Quote
SAnthonyK Posted July 24, 2016 Posted July 24, 2016 Well .. I had to challenge my TRU to get at the case. I showed them I could order online and pick up in store after customer service swore up and down they didnt have them. Got the case and immediately got the 3 Wildlife Photogs so possible penguin loop/cube later today! Quote
Klaus-Dieter Posted July 24, 2016 Posted July 24, 2016 It's great that we had gotten a picture of the minifigs already weeks ago - thanks! The Arabian Knight is a huge let-down. Apart from him this series seems to be a great series! I'm really looking forward to get some of these minifigs! Klaus-Dieter Quote
Amset-Rah Posted July 24, 2016 Posted July 24, 2016 I managed to get the Spy and Serenader at my local TRU. The Spy is very nostalgic to me because of the Alpha Team throwback Quote
