February 16, 201411 yr 4 bucks a go? if that'll be the price, all I can say is "no more CMFs for me". if it's 3 bucks, I'd consider it since I want 1 for my numbered fig collection but at 4 bucks, I could get a lego friends animal pack for that price.
February 16, 201411 yr Wow!!! That extra buck is a bit of a turn off...this better be their best set yet......
February 16, 201411 yr What's with the grey box that says Series 11?! As for the extra dollar, as much as a bummer it is, it really won't affect how much I want to buy them.
February 16, 201411 yr Even in Canada it's about 3.50$ each. Now it'll be 4.50$? I hate how they sell Lego way over the currency exchange price. Take the green baseplate. In USD it's 4.99 and in CAD it's 7.99. The USD is like 9 to 11% more in currency. 5.49 / 5.99 should be the acurate price. I don't see myself paying more than CAD 4$ a random minifigure. -.-
February 17, 201411 yr No other series before series 12? A price increase looks like making it worse. Why not? Binding Series 12 to the game doesn't mean it will be bound forever. Suppose that you mean MMO won't stop before series 13, we don't know if game codes would be just a one-time strategy. I personally think it's not since TLC obviously want to draw on the CMF series in order to market and revive the online game.
February 17, 201411 yr as far as minifigures, we still have the simpsons and lego MMO figs coming. they just aren't numbered.
February 17, 201411 yr Sorry? I don't think your "intelligence" makes sense. Is anybody still thinking that my intelligence was senseless? :D
February 17, 201411 yr So will that be the new price on all CMF series from here on out or just the two Licensed series? Buying all 16 at $3 was pricey enough (plus extras), but now add an extra $16 just to complete the set is a bit much. I may be done buying CMF too. I typically would buy a series for myself, then a handful of extras that I liked and a handful of extras for my daughter. Extras will have to be avoided now.
February 17, 201411 yr judging by the tag, it's showing the price tag for the cmf numbered sets. I haven't seen anything about the simpsons and MMO figs though. if anyone hears anything about that, please let us know And actually, now that i think about it, mom would probably abandon ship on the figures also. She mainly collects those really adorable Megabloks hello kitty waves(got 1 &3, no signs of 2 at this time) with my help but has also collected a few CMFs. i really doubt that she'd be willing to shell out 4 bucks for one lego figure
February 19, 201411 yr $4 for a CMF is just being greedy unless the one CMF's accessory is another entire CMF, that is.
February 19, 201411 yr They showed a yellow box in Nuremberg Toy Fair and here this silver box is labeled as Series 12's. So there is another CMF coming this year besides The Simpsons and Series 12???
February 19, 201411 yr They showed a yellow box in Nuremberg Toy Fair and here this silver box is labeled as Series 12's. So there is another CMF coming this year besides The Simpsons and Series 12??? It's a yellow series. The silver box is just a place holder (they must have used the same box for Series 11 at an earlier event). Unfortunately, it seems like Series 12, The Simpsons, and The LEGO Movie are the only series coming this year despite what Brick Fanatics claimed.

Movie, Simpsons, MMO/12. We get our yearly three series. -Sci
February 19, 201411 yr What's unfortunate about that? Movie, Simpsons, MMO/12. We get our yearly three series. -Sci I don't mind too much, but it would have been cool to get that rumored separate MMO series in July along with Series 12 in October like Brick Fanatics sort-of claimed.
February 19, 201411 yr What's unfortunate about that? Movie, Simpsons, MMO/12. We get our yearly three series. So far MMO is not assumed to relate to series 12 if MMO represents another series. The real issue is that adding special series doesn't increase yearly productions, which could relatively decrease the amount of regular minifigures. Unless series 12 is "postponed" but series 13 would still make debut in December. I don't mind too much, but it would have been cool to get that rumored separate MMO series in July along with Series 12 in October like Brick Fanatics sort-of claimed. If there is the MMO series, it would had been declared in this toy fair along with Simpsons and series 12, so it looks like MMO series wouldn't be made. Or TLC added the tag just to declare that they won't disctontinue CMF series, while MMO series is still a secret. Edited February 19, 201411 yr by Dorayaki
February 19, 201411 yr That extra dollar is a big turn off for me. Buying all those TLM minifigs wasn't cheap.
February 19, 201411 yr I have to state again, alas, that Series 12 will feature codes that will grant something inside the MMO game, this probably why it would cost more?
February 19, 201411 yr I have to state again, alas, that Series 12 will feature codes that will grant something inside the MMO game, this probably why it would cost more? that 's no reason to raise the price by an entire dollar for a code that one might not even use and turn off a lot of buyers. at 3 bucks a pop, they are already on the pricey side and 4 bucks is not going to help things
February 19, 201411 yr Welp, looks like The Simpsons are going to be the last series I collect all of.
February 22, 201411 yr At $4 per figure, you can count me out as well. I could care less about a game code. If there are any minifigures of significant interest in the collectible series, then Bricklink will be the way to go. I see this price increase as a deterrent for many. First, they raise the online Pick-A-Brick to obscene levels, and now this. While this may not necessarily revive a Dark Age, it could reduce my spending significantly on Lego.
February 25, 201411 yr Could that yellow box be a placeholder like the silver box? I wouldn't like having two different series with the same color... There are so many colors Lego could use: violet, olive green, tan, purple, brown, pink, turquoise, etc... According to the minifigures game site, the release date of the game is summer 2014. Isn´t it wierd that the first series with codes will come out until october?
February 25, 201411 yr Could that yellow box be a placeholder like the silver box? I wouldn't like having two different series with the same color... Trust me, yellow is the color of this series. It's a dark yellow. The prelimary catalogs had it in many different forms.
February 25, 201411 yr I'd be okay with the price hike if it were a Marvel/DC/Star Wars series. As it stands.....I'll wait and see what the wave consists of.
