Robert8 Posted April 21, 2017 Author Posted April 21, 2017 (edited) According to the "likes" on facebook, the top 3 minfigures from this series are: 1. Connoisseur 2. Rocket Boy 3. Corn Cob Guy Edited April 21, 2017 by Robert8 Quote
williejm Posted April 21, 2017 Posted April 21, 2017 I'd easily mark connossieur as a popular / wanted figure. You get a French bulldog (massively popular and fashionable breed these days, clever of Lego), AND a baguette. The stereotypical Frenchman is a bonus. Quote

Corn Cob Guy Really? Judging from all the leftovers in the boxes at my local Walmart, the Corn Cob Guy is not very popular around these parts... As I mentioned before, the boxes here were stripped clean of the Elf Maiden and the Highwayman ... Did manage to snag a Retro Spaceman during a second pass of the boxes so I was happy about that.

I think that has to do with LEGO heavy-packing the costume figures these past few series. Quote

Jeeep, personally I buy every fig with an animal I can find, the rest of the figs I want I only buy one each. Some animals comes in sets later and are easier to get hold of, but the ones that only make an appearance in CMF will get very expensive after a while... Quote
K_Tiger Posted April 21, 2017 Posted April 21, 2017 Finally found some. I was pressed for time, so I ended up with a duplicate Chef. Pics don't do this series justice. Quote
Takanuinuva Posted April 21, 2017 Posted April 21, 2017 The official release date is in may correct? Meaning I most likely won't find them at my local walmart today. (Then again my local walmart is a bit slow in getting new lego) Quote
1980-Something-Space-Guy Posted April 21, 2017 Posted April 21, 2017 I had something great happen to me today, so I'll try to see if I can find myself a retro spaceman to commemorate it and celebrate. Wish me luck! Quote

It will at least let you know if they are in the stockroom. 3 minutes ago, BrickHat said: I had something great happen to me today, so I'll try to see if I can find myself a retro spaceman to commemorate it and celebrate.

sunhuntin Posted April 22, 2017 Posted April 22, 2017 Ha, love the rocket! Finally caved and bought a box. The website had 20% off most Lego, so I saved around $80NZD. Too good to resist. Quote

I though the Walmart I went to had them, because Brickseek said they had 193, as opposed to a multiple of 60 (unlike all the other Walmarts around me). Alas, they were nowhere to be found! Maybe an error on inventory. I thought about asking them to bring them out from the back, but I was a little more pressed for time than I thought.

Post number 1234. Woohoo! Haha, well I appreciate that you used your 1234th post inquiring about the good event in my life . I graduated one year ago and have been unemployed since because my current immigration status in the US really limits my work opportunities. I've been waiting for several months on the process of becoming a permanent resident, and I finally reached one of the last milestones to that end today. Hope that satisfies your curiosity. Quote

Plus I want multiples of some for their parts, especially Hotdog Vendor for the trays to use in the Pizza shop, and others. Quote

For sure the Hot Dog Vendor has so many neat parts and I'm sure lots of people will be updating their MOCs with these. Quote

Penguin Boy I'd say is just the same idea. I mean, penguins are pretty popular and well-known animals and the execution was totally different Rocket Boy on the other hand....... Quote

makoy Posted April 23, 2017 Posted April 23, 2017 Killer corn looks great. I won't show it to my kids or they won't eat corn for a week. Not sure if I am going to buy multiple minifigs for S17... it's really expensive now. Quote
