The next LEGO Collectible Minifigures series is almost here, so here's everything you need to know ahead of the release of 71048 Series 27.
You might have been lucky enough to find 71048 Series 27 in stores already but if you haven't rest assured that they'll be in official LEGO stores, third-party retailers, and available to buy online from tomorrow, with minifigures selling at £3.49 / $4.99 / €3.99 per box. January 1 is the official release date, so we thought we'd round up all the most important details to make sure your hunt for the minifigures you want is fruitful.
Minifigure hunting made easy
There are some definite treasures in 71048 Series 27 – looking at you, Wolfpack Beastmaster and Bogeyman – and some that you perhaps won't want duplicates of. If you're buying in person, to make sure your money only goes towards minifigures you actually want, you need Brick Search's minifigure scanner, recently updated to become the best version ever.
With offline scanning and a wealth of other features, you'll instantly be able to scan the codes on the base of the box and see what's inside, taking the uncertainty out of your minifigure hunting. Get Brick Search for iOS or Android, then upgrade to Brick Search Plus to get unlimited use of the best-ever minifigure scanner.
Shopping online
For bulk buying, you can also get packs of more than one minifigure when shopping online, such as the six-pack direct from the LEGO Group, 66795 Series 27 6 Pack, and The Minifigure Store's option of ordering either a single set of 12 minifigures or a retail case of 36 blind boxes.
You’ll pay £59.99 (which takes you over the minimum £50 threshold for free delivery) for a set of 12, which is slightly higher than buying them individually, but The Minifigure Store will do the hard work for you and guarantee that you’ll get one of each minifigure in Series 27. The case of 36 blind boxes – which should contain three complete sets, though there is a margin for error – costs £124.95.
