I buzzed through Walmart on the way to work tonight and there I saw that the LEGO blind bag minifig series nine set has been released. These are sixteen new minifigs that are purchased as single figures. They come with new faces and special accessories. With them being blind bag (no way you can tell which one you are getting) there is the risk of getting multiple of the same minifig. Of course if that happens you can try to find someone who needs that minifig or you could go to Brick Warriors and get some other pieces of armor, weapons or accessories and completely change the figure around.

This new series has a bunch of figures that I’d like to collect including the Mermaid, Ogre, Alien, Spaceman and Archery queen (which could probably be thought of as Merida from Brave). There is also a guy in a chicken outfit which would be funny as well. I’ll probably pick up a few of these sets to stuff into Easter eggs for Eva to find on Easter morning. I usually find things like this or Hot wheels cars for that purpose.

While at Toy Fair 2013 I got a tour of the LEGO booth and saw that this year there will be the release of Series 9, 10 and 11 of this popular line of collectible minifigs.

What types of minifigs do you wish LEGO would produce?
