Hoboman Posted July 12, 2011 Posted July 12, 2011 *sigh* little VIPs... I wonder what percentage of VIPs are adults. I would guess that the answer is 100% as I believe you had to be an adult to sign up for the VIP card. Or did I miss something? Quote
SilvaShado Posted July 12, 2011 Posted July 12, 2011 I got it and voted for the elf. Mostly I hope they notice that a lot of people want the elf and will create a new series with them, not just a new vintage pack. But it does look like they're going to do a vintage pack of the 5 most popular. My guess will be = elf, spartan, zombie, robot, cheerleader. The only one that may not make it is the cheerleader because it just came out in the calendar, but I still think it'll get a lot of votes. Or course, I'd rather them do new minifigures in these themes rather than re-releases, such as females or alternate designs. Maybe we should do a poll here? Can the poll include that many choices? That'd be 48 choices. Quote
Lego Otaku Posted July 12, 2011 Posted July 12, 2011 Got the email and voted. No need to guess who I voted for as one of my favorite series was the Forestmen. :laugh: Quote
Dread Pirate Wesley Posted July 12, 2011 Posted July 12, 2011 Forestmen! But then I voted for the spartan right after and it said thank you for your vote, and then again for the elf... So can you vote multiple times? DPW Quote
Joebot Posted July 12, 2011 Posted July 12, 2011 Forestmen! But then I voted for the spartan right after and it said thank you for your vote, and then again for the elf... So can you vote multiple times? DPW In the confirmation message, I think it said that if you vote a second time, the second vote REPLACES your first vote. So, no ballot-stuffing allowed! The wording of the email is confusing. My first interpretation was that they're going to release an actual SET based around whatever mini-fig wins. But after reading this thread, and seeing where others are interpreting the "set" as being nothing more than a pack of the most popular figs, I'm not so sure. Quote
SilentMode Posted July 12, 2011 Author Posted July 12, 2011 I would be devastated if they meant a minifigure pack rather than an actual set. But in the small print they mention they may use alternative parts if the original ones are discontinued, so there might be a chance the winnig minifigure will be reworked. I'm sticking with my original vote, but here's hoping an alternate cheerleader will show up at some point. Quote
Blondie-Wan Posted July 12, 2011 Posted July 12, 2011 This is also being discussed over in General Discussion and News. I'm fine with anything that lets me get more of certain figures from the first couple series. I'm still trying to pick That One Special Figure for my vote, but it's definitely going to be one from Series 1 - I really want more robots, spacemen, cowboys, tribal hunters, demolition dummies and cavemen (and divers, though I'm assuming that's too far out of the running to bother voting for, and I'd rather have any of the others I mentioned). If this is to be a set of five figures in the fashion of the Vintage Minifigure Collections, I assume the Spartan Warrior is a shoo-in for at least one of the five slots, but we'll see... Quote
AFOL SF Posted July 12, 2011 Posted July 12, 2011 ...got the e-mail the other night... voted for the Spartan... Quote
Rufus Posted July 12, 2011 Posted July 12, 2011 This is already being discussed over in Special Themes. Please continue your discussion there! I'll lock this thread and move/merge it later. Quote
Blondie-Wan Posted July 12, 2011 Posted July 12, 2011 Maybe we should do a poll here? Can the poll include that many choices? That'd be 48 choices. I was just about to post such a poll myself, but it's limited to 40 choices per question. Quote
SilvaShado Posted July 13, 2011 Posted July 13, 2011 I was just about to post such a poll myself, but it's limited to 40 choices per question. That's too bad... It'd be neat to see the running total of how people are voting, or would vote. Quote
Ogre Posted July 16, 2011 Posted July 16, 2011 (edited) Dear UsernameMDM, We know how much our LEGO® fans love their minifigures! That's why we're giving your little VIPs the chance to tell us their number one character from the LEGO Minifigure Series 1 - 3. Simply click on their preferred minifigure below to register your vote. We will then turn the most popular characters into an exclusive LEGO Minifigure set, only available to LEGO VIPs!* Choose wisely, you only get to vote once! Voting closes July 30. Well, I am voting for the elf! Anyone else get this email? If so, which CMF did you vote for & why? For me, it was a toss-up between the Elf and the Spartan, with the Elf winning out. I already have a ton of Spartans, but only ten elves...and, quite honestly, it is one GORGEOUS minifigure! The quality of the printing is just OUTSTANDING. No other CMF comes CLOSE, IMO, not even my beloved Spartan. Got it... 6:30pm EST, voted for the Elf, of course... force them to finish the fantasy line instead of leaving us hanging!!! Edit: It does sound like they'll just make a figure set... but what's the point if we already have our favorite one? To get MORE, of course. Edited July 16, 2011 by Ogre Quote
LEGOMAN132 Posted July 17, 2011 Posted July 17, 2011 I voted for the S2 Vampire. Maybe it will be a costume party set. Quote
22kane Posted July 17, 2011 Posted July 17, 2011 I'm hoping we will get a chance to purchase the Zombie and Robot again ( I voted for the Zombie). I actually had a case of series 1 and broke it down into sets and sold them on eBay. I used the profits to purchase the newer train sets. I just couldn't bring myself to open the packages. I am curious how much we will be charged for this limited edition set. I wouldn't doubt seeing a price tag of about $30 or more. Quote
Pennas2000 Posted July 23, 2011 Posted July 23, 2011 my vote went to the spartan but almost clicked elf. Quote
