LEGO 71051 Series 28 Animals is out now, and don't forget that you can find the specific minifigures you want, or a full set, with Brick Search.
The latest series of blind-boxed LEGO minifigures is now available, featuring 12 new characters to collect. These costumed minifigures continue the range of animal-inspired characters that have appeared in standard sets and other minifigure series alike. They've become collectable for many enthusiasts, but whether you want to pick up all 12 or just a couple, they're still blind-boxed.
You can bypass the blind nature of these boxes with a handy code that can be found on the bottom of each box, to the right of the standard barcode. These data matrix codes are tied to a specific minifigure in the series, which varies by region, but they can still be scanned with the Brick Search app's minifigure scanner to reveal who is inside each box.
The app is available here for Android devices, and here for iOS devices. Brick Search Plus members get unlimited use of the app’s minifigure box code scanner, too. A month's membership to Brick Search Plus costs less than a single minifigure and will make finding all 12 of 71051 Series 28 Animals a lot easier and more affordable without risking duplicate minifigures.
To use the scanner, simply line up the data matrix code with the device's camera, while at least partially covering the barcode, and you'll be quickly told exactly who is inside the box. Refer to the images below for guidance, or here for a more in-depth guide.
Codes for the US, the UK and Europe are live in the app now alongside the release of 71051 Series 28 Animals. You can find the series in stores now for £3.49 / $4.99 / €4.99 per box, or £41.88 / $59.88 / €59.88 for a full set of 12 minifigures.
