Mirandir Posted July 7, 2008 Posted July 7, 2008 So I was on S@H in a totaly different errand and stumbled over this. I didn't find any post about this. Sorry if it is posted already... Anyhow... As was expected this minifig pack doesn't come cheap. Still a bit sad about the not-so-vintage-vintage-spaceman. :/ But I'll still buy a couple of it anyway. Quote
Lt. Veers Posted July 7, 2008 Posted July 7, 2008 I think this was noticed a while ago. But I must say, the price is insane! Quote
Tom_castlefan Posted July 7, 2008 Posted July 7, 2008 A silly price for 5 figures I'm not interested in Thanks for notifying us of this though Tom Quote
Siegfried Posted July 8, 2008 Posted July 8, 2008 So I was on S@H in a totaly different errand and stumbled over this. I didn't find any post about this. Sorry if it is posted already... Yeah, it's pretty old news so I merged it with the other topic. I have no plan to pay that much per-minifig. Quote
Mirandir Posted July 8, 2008 Posted July 8, 2008 Haha I thought I knew exactly what was on S@H but it turns out to be just a minor form of megalomania. Oh well... Yeah, it's pretty old news so I merged it with the other topic. I have no plan to pay that much per-minifig. I'm gonna buy it as the 50-years-celebration-set it is and keep it as MISB as it's not even close to being woth buying for the minifigs. Specially since I could get a bunch of that red spacemen, with the true vintage feel, for the same money as a single one of theese sets on bricklink. Even if I bought the most expensive ones with the thin chinstrap in mint condition... Quote
Norro Posted July 9, 2008 Posted July 9, 2008 This is very interesting...I hope Vol. 2 has a better selection of minifigures. Maybe something along the lines of this: 197? - ??? (I don't know much about pre-80's LEGO) 1989 - Governor Broadside 1993 - Ice Planet 2002 babe 1997 - Basil the Batlord (Most of you will probably disagree with me ) 2002 – LEGO Studios Vampire (I lost mine ) One small alteration... and a huge increase in value Also I'd prefer a non fright knight...

LegoManTroy Posted June 14, 2016 Posted June 14, 2016 I have some retro Lego flight attendant and nurse minifigures that are sitting in this specialized case. I never really touch them. They are from 1976. Quote

They are from 1976. the one with the ninja, forest maiden, and athlete/jogger? I have that case and love it, such cool variety and shows the progression of mini figures through the years Quote

They are from 1976. Since these are from 1976, I assume these are "stiffy" figures? Do they have special stickers on them or something? How do you know they're from 1976? Where did they come from?

That's sort of what I would assume, since 1976 is crazy. I wouldn't imagine that LEGO was in the habit of doing any promotional minifigs (well, stiffy figs) at the time. A nurse from 1976 is certainly possible (although none are known as promos), since there was a red cross sticker in the old hospital sets. Flight attendants would be really surprising, though, because NONE of the stickers that I'm aware of at the time were detailed enough to indicate "flight attendant". They were pretty simplistic back then. So I'm skeptical without more information. DaveE Quote
