Mos_Eisley Posted August 14, 2010 I'm interested in building up a large army of the new Spartans. I know everyone wants these but I'm sure there are plenty of people who are uninterested in them but will be out looking for other minifigures. So, I'm offering a $5.00(U.S) bounty for any sealed Spartan that anyone wants to sell me. I would want to get these in groups of 3 or 4 at least though so I'm not paying $2.00 to ship one at a time. I know they will likely be selling for a few dollars more than this on BrickLink once Series 2 is widely available, but I doubt they'll be moving all that quickly at $7 or $8 once everyone starts listing them. Please PM if you're interested. I am willing to purchase domestically and Internationally. Jason Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bonaparte Posted August 22, 2010 Just wondering, how many of these fantastic Spartans do you plan to collect? Personally I think it's one of the best figs LEGO released in a very long time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mos_Eisley Posted August 22, 2010 Just wondering, how many of these fantastic Spartans do you plan to collect? Personally I think it's one of the best figs LEGO released in a very long time. I agree! I don't really have a particular number in mind, just as many as I can! I thought it looked good from the pictures, but after finally getting one it's probably one of my favorite minifigures ever produced by TLG. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rakky Posted August 28, 2010 132, no wonder other people are having trouble finding them. Man i'm glad no ones been buying them like that where I'm from or there would be none left for everyone else. Although i imagine you bought them online mostly as I can't imagine how long it would take to find that many in shops, or if it would even be possible :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Very impressive number, Grogall! I suppose you've been spending quite some time locating these, or maybe youre by surrounded by discounters that carry large quantities. I'm in Germany too and managed to buy ca. 30 spartans, but that took me one whole day of searching and ca. 200 km. Cheers Frank Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Apache Posted August 29, 2010 You lucky Euorpean S.O.B.'s, I'm just hoping for 20 spartans when all this is said and done here in the US. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rakky Posted August 29, 2010 Damn man, Germany sounds much better off than the UK, we have them in WHsmiths but my toys r us did not get any of series 1 or 2 :(. What number are you hoping to get up to, im guessing they are a good investment for selling at a later date. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
