A 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 .....

Here's what appears to be a first visual of the 5 collectible minifigure series due out in August.

Series 4 is slated for April / May, and Series 3 is just starting to be widely available.

Apparently LEGO seems to want to release these series at a brisk pace, which is certainly not a bad thing except for the wallet.

While waiting for more information about this Series 5, rumors are rife about the possible color of the bag and the methods of identifying the content.

We do with what we have while waiting for real confirmed information .....

Here we go, LEGO is delivering its first sets of magnets glued to their base, as confirmed by TLG in recent weeks.

TheBrickBlogger has tried different techniques to try to detach minifigs from their base, with varying degrees of success.

None of the solutions considered seems really satisfactory, the minifigs being often damaged by the operation.

In short, if you also want to fight against this change in TLG policy, probably linked to pressure from the holders of the various licenses currently being marketed, you can read the report of these experiences. at this address and get your own idea of ​​the interest of continuing to buy these magnets which are definitely becoming fridge decorations, and nothing more .....

The Amazon.com MarketPlace displays these three boxes which can each contain a series of minifigs (16 characters).

Each box is sold for $ 19 excluding shipping costs and this product perfectly reproduces the design of each series (Color & Fonts), but is not an official LEGO product.

Despite everything, it must be admitted that the solution is attractive for all those who wish to display their series of minifigs in a dust-free environment and with a nice covering.

I am considering ordering these two products for my own use. If you are interested, post a comment and I think it is possible to get a discount on shipping costs via a bulk order or in any case large.
