My local TRU(Peterborough) has kept their prices for the Collectable Minifigures(Series 1 and 2) the same. I find this odd considering that most other TRUs raise the prices just to gain a profit that TLG isn't. If that happens in my local TRU, all my Series 3 money will go to my local WHSmiths(or anywhere I can get the packets without having to use the chance game), as they are usually very reliable for these, but sometimes have them behind the counter. I find that it just is the case in different places. Lord Embo

True. But I don't like the old pistols myself and think that TLG should change the classic pistols for newer ones in a different colour such as black. Grey just doesn't work with the pistols. Lord Embo

What an amazing picture to get us excited for 2011! It seems that Jack will not only have a double-sided head, but also that some versions have the hair moulded onto the hat, whereas others have the hair moulded onto the bandana. Roll on PotC and May 2011! Lord Embo

Great pics. I especially like the look of Saesee Tiin, even if he is rather Clone Warsy. Can you get close-up pictures of the minifigures from the Bounty Hunter Gunship and of Shaak Ti? Thanks in advance. Lord Embo

Is this meant to be a joke? Why would anybody ever buy a set like that for any reason but MOCing purposes? Lord Embo

Since the Maze(Tri-Wizard Tournament 3rd Task) isn't inside Hogwarts Castle but outside of it, are we allowed to make it? If so, I'm in! Lord Embo

Nice updates of old minifigures and nice work on your new ones, especially Mundungus. However, I think you should have made a new face decal for Mundungus, but that's just me. Lord Embo

Hm... You could buy the Hoth Wampa Cave; that's only £30-£35(yes, it varies among places) which will leave you with an extra £5 to save up for 2011 sets. Lord Embo

I called and asked about an incoming patch for this game and the reply was: "We're working on it, but it may take a long time to complete it." So it seems that there won't be a patch for a while yet. Oh well, it doesn't matter to me as I have already completed the game and only encountered one glitch all the way through. Lord Embo

Since we have recieved wonderful pictures of series 4, I have been thinking up potential minifigs for series 5 of the collection(regarding that we do get one, of course), so here is a topic for it. Here suggestions for future minifigs can be listed. Each time a new idea is posted, it will be added to this post. It would also be convenient if you could describe what hair and accesories your minifigure comes with and provide a link to reference pictures too. Anyways, here are my own starter ideas: Hunter with hunter's hat and a sniper rifle(male). Surgeon with surgeon's hat, syringe and large briefcase with medical items printing(male). Cricket Player with cricket hat(with thing on it) and a cricket bat(male). Santa Claus with Santa hat and a sack(male). Bride with veil and a bouquet of flowers(female). Ballerina with blond ponytail, pink skirt and shoes thatclip on like the skates on the S4 Ice Hockey Player and Speed Skater(female). Boxer with brown hair and boxing gloves that clip onto the hands like the S1 Cheerleader pom-poms(male). College Student with diploma hat, black cape and diploma scroll(male). Roman Emperor with new brown hair with holes for laurel wreath(which is included) and a bunch of grapes(male). Buckingham Palace Guard with hat and gun seen in picture(male). Football(or soccer in America and some other places) Referee with new black hair, red card and yellow card(male). Snake Charmer with red printed turban, snake basket, snake and snake charmer's flute(male). Hippie with new long brown hair and an acoustic guitar(male). Zookeeper with long blond Ginny Weasley hair and parrot(female). Bishop with Bible, bishop hat and bishop staff(male). Weather Reporter with long brown Ginny Weasley hair and pole to point at map locations(female). Hope to see some ideas come up to inspire TLG for Series 5 of the Collectible Minifigures! Lord Embo

I chose the punk rocker, simply because of his cool mohawk(in pink ) and that lovely elictric guitar piece. At last we have one! Lord Embo

Gender: Male Occupation: Boxer Type of Headgear: New Ron Weasley hair in dark brown. Type of Facial Expression: Angry/determined with sweat running down face. Colour and detail on Torso/Legs: Torso: Yellow with muscles and sweat running down torso. Legs: White shorts(front to sides to back of legs) with Lego logo on them. Yellow after shorts, no detail. Accesories: Red Boxing Gloves. Just my first idea; I have plenty more. Lord Embo

Why is it that every time I come up with a new topic there always happens to be one with the same sort of idea? It is really starting to get annoying! Lord Embo

That point is well made. Us all complaining won't do anything; we need to figure out a way to remove the glue rather than getting grumpy about glued magnets. It's not going to accomplish anything at all, whereas trying to figure out a solution will be mutually benefitial as sales will increase(when a way to seperate the figs from the magnets is discovered) meaning our beloved TLG will gain more profit, whereas us collectors will be able to get rare minifigures for much less(generally) than the set(s) the minifigs in question are from. So stop complaining and try to find answers to how to remove the glue! End of rant. Lord Embo

I agree with that. I personally am not a "real" Lego Pirates lover(as you put it) but am glad that we are getting PotC in its place. It is good that they decided to give the old Pirates theme a rest for a while. When this theme finishes though, whether we get old Pirates back or not is very difficult to tell at this point. However, it isn't very likely that this will be the case. Lord Embo

Reference to previous requests: Decal requests It seems that people have entirely ignored them for the time being (except for the Weasley twins' torso design). They were requested 7 and 8 days ago. Thanks in advance for doing these(whoever actually decides to do them, of course). Lord Embo

Pixar I mean Disney really don't care about historical accuracy, do they? Lord Embo

True. But then we would have to spend more money to buy both games. Besides, TLG are probably going to watch the 4th film beofre it is released in cinemas for everyone else to see. Lord Embo

I suggested in a YouTube video the artist, scientist and the footballer(or soccer player in US) and look! They've been included! I find it coincidental that most of these seem like ideas suggested by fans that TLG finally took into consideration. Must get them all! Especially the guitarist, the ice hockey player, the frankenstein, the footballer and the artist. Lord Embo

I think the prices of the magnet sets will most certainly drop since demand is going to decrease thanks to glue. Then again, lowering prices(except for random sales) are often a sign that said product is going to be discontinued. Oh well, if they stop magnet sets it won't affect me in any way now that they're glued. Lord Embo

The last one looks like it has a slightly pinkish tinge which probably gives off the illusion that the middle one has a greenish tinge. Lord Embo

I agree with you. Even if he gets picked for any other film roles in the near future, I am sure that he will turn them down to continue with PotC. Lord Embo

So what MOC are you currently working on if it isn't a House of Parliament? I know what it could be now... 10 Downing Street!? Lord Embo

I should've known it wouldn't go well at all! Oh well, things may well change in round 2(but almost certainly they won't). *EDIT* Round 2 DS sent Lord Embo

One word: Unbelievable! At long last we get a paintbrush, paint palette, proper hockey helmet, vest and stick, a fan, a test tube, a mohawk and an electric guitar. I'm definitely buying Series 4(too bad we don't get them 'til April ). I especially like the hockey player, the kimoni girl(strangely enough), the punk, the frankenstein and the artist . One emoticon for each of the ones I significantly like! Lord Embo
