series5 toyfairThe Complete Fifth Wave Collectible Minifigure Series was presented at Toy Fair 2011.
 
We can see the different characters and their accessories a little better.
 
Nothing to say, LEGO innovates and this 5th series is undoubtedly one of the best currently offered by the manufacturer.
 
 The bags will be blue, as indicated a few weeks ago.
The only question we can ask ourselves: Which minifig will be the subject of speculation in this series from the Bricklink and eBay dealers, as with the elf on the current 3 series ......

4series 2By dint of looking for information on the series 5, we would almost forget that the series 4 of collectable minifigures (Collectable Minifigures of their real name) must point the tip of his nose by the month of April.
The big unknown remains the identification system of the contents of the bag, the barcode having been abandoned since the series 2 in favor of small discreet marks on the series 3, which have since also been withdrawn.
There remains the possibility of guessing the contents by "feeling" the sachet, or of buying a complete box of 60 sachets, to be sure of having at least 2 complete series.

In short, we do not know much, and you can console yourself with these two visuals that appeared today in the dedicated topic on Eurobrick.

lego appIt's not a revolution, but LEGO released one more iPhone app after the catastrophic Lego photo, and the sorry Lego creationary.
This time we are entitled to LEGO Minifigure Collector, an application for iPhone / iPod (too bad for iPad users who will have to zoom in to use this application ...) whose sole purpose is to complete its collection of series 2 and 3 minifigures via a jackpot-type machine.
You start the machine, and if you manage to come across three parts (Head, bust, legs) of the same minifigure, it is added to your collection. Boring and repetitive, without any interest, but free.

series5Live from the "Spielwarenmesse International Toy Fair 2011" in Nurnberg, Germany, here is a slew of images from the series 5 of minifigures to collect, including a video finally revealing the different characters.
Don't ask me for the color of the bag (take a good look at the video, it's blue), there are forums where you will find people spending hours discussing it ... and to tell the truth, I don't care more than this.
In the video you will also discover the 4 series of collectible minifigures and the new LEGO Alien Conquest line, which is very "Mars Attack".

Click on the image on the left to display an enlarged view.

(I extracted the images from the video, they are better than the view currently circling all over the forums.)

Lego% 2Bserie% 2B3A member of FreeLUG went to the trouble of grouping the pouches of his Series 3 minifigs together, and clearly marking the location of the dots on the bottom of the pouch.

Click on the image to have a global view of what it gives, however, they are not all there.

Be careful, it seems that the latest series delivered by LEGO, especially in Northern Europe for the moment, no longer include these mysterious point-based markings. We must therefore "feel" the bag to try to guess its content.

In this regard, beware if you go to toy stores, many people have had the unpleasant surprise, after spending time looking through the series 3 bags, to find broken accessories in the bags.

Other buyers had to handle the bags without necessarily using gloves .....
