madoka Posted March 1, 2011 You have got to be kidding! Do you know what 40,000 minifigures looks like? Either you are a convincing story teller or have unlimited storage space and budget. Not unlimited storage. A 15 quart container holds a little more than 1,000 minifigs. So all I would need is forty of them. Like these: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ziljin Posted March 1, 2011 (edited) Not unlimited storage. A 15 quart container holds a little more than 1,000 minifigs. So all I would need is forty of them. Like these: Amazing! I am envious. I remember watching that AFOL documentary and one of those guys had like a warehouse of Lego (or just a huge room) with what looked like thousands of containers no doubt filled with Lego. IIRC he said he must have spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on his Lego. I want to be that guy. Except with more minifigs and less bricks. SO right now you are a role model and inspiration.

metalgearsolid Posted March 1, 2011 40K minifigs??? I'm in awe... I've a relatively more modest 3K or so... I lost count since the collectible minifig series came along. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Niku Posted March 1, 2011 OMG, is different from reading it than look at it. You just have an amazing quantity. Must have great fun with MOC´s and battles. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Like these: My apologies sir, I did not believe it possible! Wow, just wow! May I ask why? I mean I am as dedicated a fan as any, but how could you manage to make use of that many soldiers? Do you ever set them up in battle formations, or do you just like the feeling of having them? To me anything over 1000 mini's I can't find a use for, unless you also have millions of bricks and are making the world's largest MOC.

ziljin Posted March 1, 2011 What AFOL Documentary? Wow I just looked at the timestamp. It is one year old. But I enjoyed watching it. I didn't really see any minifig collectors in the video though. Most of them just had lots of bricks. AFOL A Blocumentary Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Like these: Absolutely mind-blowing and utterly amazing. I'm an infant in the world of LEGO compared to some of the members of this site but that's pretty awesome. I actually just bought a couple of 15 quart containers last night to sort some of my bricks and I couldn't even imagine one of them full of minifigs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AFOL A Blocumentary That was a great little film, makes me feel like my own collection is insignificant and can literally fit into just one of those drawers they guys kept showing off!

Silverface Posted March 2, 2011 (edited) I haven't counted that for a long time but I believe it's presumably 400-600 minifigs, or then it's something else (It can be much more) Edited March 2, 2011 by Silverface Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

smittyfan Posted March 3, 2011 bought a couple of the collectible minifigures yesterday, but alas, try as i might, i'm still a long ways from having 100 figures... sadder still is that i discovered one of my soccer girls to be missing! i've never gotten rid of any of my Legos over the years, so i figure she musta gotten misplaced somewhere... hmm... maybe she was jealous of all my Belville princesses and ran away...

dr_spock Posted March 4, 2011 I found another box of lady mini-figs I squirreled away somewhere. I'm probably over 150. I started off with a couple of male and female minifigs with the 7710 set and they have been multiplying ever since. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do you play Brikwars/any other Lego war games? Only, it would so much fun having all of those guys fighting away, with vehicles and everything! How many are there, and do you own enough weapons and such to equip them? My collection is nothing compared to yours, I only have about 50-60 figures.
