    Hey guys.

    Anyone know of any stores in Dublin area selling these?
    I know season 1 is very rare and series 2-6 are probably difficult enough to find too. What about 7?
    Just started collecting series 8&9 and looking to work my way back!

    You won't get those in shops anymore, in fact series 9 is retiring soon too.

    Your best bet:

    Adverts.ie - people sell a lot of minifigs out there. Sometimes the whole series.

    Bricklink.com - biggest lego market online. There are Irish sellers who sell parts and minifigs. 100% you will complete your collection there in one sitting. It all depends on how deep your pockets are.

    How many series are released per year?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,589 ✭✭✭✭Necronomicon


    It averages out at about 2 per year.

    You might be in luck actually. A regular poster here, p o s t y, is selling his complete Series 1-8 collection on Adverts.ie. Not sure if any of them have sold yet.

    I have 60 series 6 minifigures all still sealed in their mystery bags.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 191 ✭✭p_o_s_t_y


    U should use the feel method and sort them into complete sets,if its a sealed box u should have 3 complete sets and 12 spares

    Hi Power,

    Posty is right.. You will sell them easier doing that.. I wouldn't buy them blind but would certainly buy a complete set of 16 from you. I need series 1-4 and 6

    anyone know of anywhere in dublin where you can get minifigs for cheaper than €3?, I see them range from 2.99 to 3.75 around dublin. Had heard someone mention (but cant remember who) of somewhere selling them for 2.50, although that may be a few years ago?

    Well they used to cost €2.50, but since the Simpsons set (I think) they've gone up to €3

    The last time I was in Dublin, I found the cheapest Series 12 bags (can't remember the price, but they had I think a 5 for 4 sale) was the Hobby & Crafts shop on tho top floor of St. Stephen's Green Shopping Centre.
