Title: Collectible Minifigures Series 18
Post by: conor on March 25, 2018, 10:49 pm

Picked up some Series 18 on Saturday in Nimble Fingers in Stillorgan. Got 3 of the 5 (of the 17 available) that I want from the series. Ended up with some that I don't want -- seems to be the way.

Any spare Classic Policemen? Happy to trade sometime. It's the only one that really catches my eye. That said the brick figures look good too.

I just checked and apparently this is the box distribution..

5 in a box

    LEGO Red Brick Suit Guy (#2)
    LEGO Blue Brick Suit Girl (#3)

4 in a box

    Fireworks/Rocket Guy (#5)
    Red Dragon Suit Guy (#7)
    Spider Suit Guy (#9)
    Birthday Cake Guy (#10)
    Flowerpot Girl (#14)
    Cowboy Suit Guy (#15)
    Blue Unicorn Knight (#17)

3 in a box

    Elephant Suit Girl (#1)
    Party Clown (#4)
    Birthday Party Girl (#7)
    Cactus Girl (#11)
    Cat Suit Girl (#12)
    Race Car Guy (#13)
    Birthday Party Boy (#16)

1 in a box
    Policeman

I suppose it makes sense but seems a little low quantity to be fair.

No policeman unfortunately.

I got:

LEGO Red Brick Suit Guy (#2) x 2
Flowerpot Girl (#14) x 2
Cactus Girl (#11) x 2
Spider Suit Guy (#9)
Birthday Cake Guy (#10)
Birthday Party Girl (#7)

If I don't get them next time, would gladly trade any of the doubles above (incl. Spider Suit Guy) for:

LEGO Blue Brick Suit Girl (#3)
Birthday Party Boy (#16)
Party Clown (#4)

I'm looking to work up a classic backyard birthday party scene, so not really interested in the others.

Hi yes I picked up a box of these figures and the above list is correct except for there only 3 elephant girl figures per box not 4.... I have 1 spare police man if someone is looking for one for collection..i collect the minifigure series and if I don't buy full box I spend hrs in shop to get figures I want. I find jays blog fantastic for reviews on lego set figures

Went to my local Toymaster, a few minifigure packs on display. Asked could I see the box they came out of, I took the back left out of the box (other forums say that’s where the policeman is) low and behold that’s where he was and didn’t even have to feel!

Have to give serious props to my local toy shop - Byrnes in Wexford.
You can get 3 CMF's for €10, and they also have the CMF Loyalty Card (Buy 5, get the 6th free).
