finding lego minifigures

[Kestrel]

Why oh why did Lego decide this mystery assortment thing was a good idea? Why can't I just buy the blasted figure my child wants???

I've spent way too much time feeling up those bags. There are blogs where people tell you what to feel for.

I agree. I think it is really annoying.

Hop on ebay and search for the one you want. That's what I did!

There are a couple of employees at our Lego Store that are pretty good on the feel up and guess game.

So frustrating when things that should be easy are complicated.

We had an expert "package feeler" at our local toy store. He was always 100% right!

Corporate lego put an end to that and told them they are cut off as a distributor if it continued :(

We still support the store... But are really bummed!

Once a month they have a free mini-fig swap, but we haven't attended yet.

DD Is addicted to the MLP blind bags. I discovered you can google it and there are codes on the bags linked to the production line and indicates whos in there. I'd google it for the lego minis.

Ebay is also a good option and usually the price is about the same
