That’s a good misprint - you can create unique eyes!

Found all 12 Muppets figures today. So excited! I modified my Palace Cinema months ago in preparation to become a Muppet Theater, complete with the first floor as the theater and the second floor as the "backstage" area with Kermit's desk and dressing rooms. I thought I'd share a few pics:

I bought 6 Pack and two bags today. Let’s see what I get once they arrive…

That’s going to give me nightmares. It definitely ain’t easy being green apparently.

 

I went to the Lego Store earlier and I’m surprised more people weren’t getting a lot of these Muppets figures. Maybe they’re like me and are just going to order a complete set online.

Looks like Australia gets the shaft again and isn't getting these until June :(

Looking great! Good idea too!

Of some of the small unprinted parts. Eg Fozzy’s mic stand, some parts of Animal’s drum kit, Swedish Chef came with two whisks, Waldorf had two cups and two saucers …

I still haven't been able to find these here in North Carolina--just one random blind bag that was misplaced on a clearance shelf at my local Target. I was happy to get Fozzie but I really want to get Kermit (and eventually the whole set).

[The Stud]

I found a box worth at both Target and Kohl's yesterday and decided to try and get a complete set on a whim. I wasn't even planning on buying the series until later this summer but I saw them there, I decided to treat myself as this is my last week of my first year of college (I've been using that excuse quite a bit recently lol.) I got 12 packs and got 11/12 of the figures; I got an extra Waldorf somehow. I could not find many Fozzies at either store. I thought I felt something similar to the banana piece in a pack at some point but I guess I must have forgotten Fozzie came with one. Looks like I'll have to go back out to hunt for that one sometime in the next couple days.

Of the figures I got, Kermit's easily my favorite as I really like the character but as a minifigure, I think I like Gonzo the best. There's so much detailing and I love the head mold. This was a very small issue, but am I the only to have noticed some very minor paint misapplications and specks on their figures in this series? There's not enough for me to contact customer service or anything, but it was something I noticed. The difference between the thickness of Beaker's lab coat between the legs and torso was also a little disappointing for me. Otherwise, I really like this series!

[Lion King]

I got Kermit the Frog, Miss Piggy, Rolwif the Dog, Animal, Dr. Honeydew, and that butt-face old mith laptop (sorry I forgot how to spell his name…). It’s a 6 Pack and I like them a lot!

Also, I ordered two random blind bags. I got a duplicated Kermit and another blind bag is missing.

Lol you mean Stadtler (the one with Whiskers is Waldorf)

That’s him! :)

[Lion King]

I just got Fozzie Bear, Swedish Chef, Gonzo and Beaker. They are….WHOA!

I love love the scientist duo (Dr. Honeydew and Beaker) standing to each other! 

I have a teeny-weeny complaint about Gonzo - his nose is not really curved, just that’s it. I don’t see any problem with Fozzie Bear’s “somehting off” color here - I LOVE him!

Now, I see more and more medium legs throw out CMF Series. I kinda wish that Bart and Lisa from Simpson Series should get medium legs…

I got them all and i am really in love with them. Such a great series! I hope they’ll make a series 2

I still need Miss Piggy & Animal and another Statler.  They are just starting to show up in Walmarts around here so I managed to snag 4 of the 6 I was still missing along with a couple of extras I wanted doubles of.  Missed out on the first supply at Kohl's & only found a lone one in a Target a couple of weeks ago.  I did purchase 3 of the six pack boxes from Target online but unfortunately got the same 6 figures in each box.  Hence my quest for the last two.  Should be able to find the ones I need soon.  Planning to check in another Walmart later today.

Can't wait to get them. Does anyone think there's a chance we might get a wave 2? With the pigs in space, Dr. Teeth, Zoot, Floyd Pepper, Scooter, Sam the Eagle, Sweetums to mention a few. And what are the chances we might now get Fraggle Rock mini figures?

Found them at (of all places) a fabric store. Got the ones I wanted (and got the ones my kids wanted too). After opening them up they were better than I expected. I had to go back and find the rest to complete the set. They are extremely well done. Can’t wait to create a Veterinarian’s Hospital MOC, just working out a couple details for the build. It would be amazing if LEGO gave us a second Muppets series wave! Fingers crossed.

I got the last two I needed in Barnes & Noble earlier today.  Glad the hunt is over but I do want to find an extra Animal eventually.
