There have been reports that the LEGO The Simpsons Series Minifigures (71005) are starting to hit shelves early at various retailers such as Walmart and now Toys R Us. The official release date for the minifigures is still two weeks away on May 1st. In preparation for the release, a reader who is also a fellow member of SandLUG has found some at LEGOLAND and provided a feel guide for the minifigures. Since feeling for the heads may be somewhat difficult, luckily the characters also have accessory pieces that can help out in identifying them. Thank you to Charlie for the guide.

1. Homer
Feel for 1×2 tile remote control and 1×1 round stud donut piece

2. Bart
Feel for the two wheels (they bend) and the skateboard deck.

3. Marge
Feel for her hair – it’s long and bulky. To make sure, feel for her purse.

4. Lisa
Feel for her saxophone.

5. Maggie
Feel for her teddy-bear.

6. Grampa
Feel for 2×2 square tile and a cone-ish head. He is one of two minifigures that have the tile with movable legs. Don’t get him confused with Marge.

7. Ned Flanders
Feel for his toolbox and cup with handle.

8. Krusty the Clown
Feel for his cream-pie. His hair feels like two handles of a
jackhammer.

9. Milhouse van Houten
Feel for 2×2 square tile and kid legs. His head is bulkier than Ralph’s. Feel for his big nose if you’re unsure.

10. Ralph Wiggum
Feel for 2×2 square tile and kid legs. His head … Continue

If you’re excited for the new LEGO The Simpsons Series Minifigures (71005), you may want to check out your local Walmart stores. I received an email by a reader named Michelle who found a box of 60 on the shelves at her Walmart in Walker, LA. The minifigures will officially be released on May 1st. So if you want to get your hands on them a little earlier, it may behoove you to check out Walmart and see if they put them on shelves on accident.

Amazon.uk may have given us a clue of which characters are included in the LEGO The Simpsons Collectible Minifigures (71005).

Woo-hoo! It’s The Simpsons! The LEGO Minifigures series continues with this great collection of 16 of your favorite characters from TV’s longest-running comedy. There’s Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa, and Maggie Simpson, as well as Grampa, Ned Flanders, Ralph Wiggum, Nelson Muntz, Apu Nahasapeemapetilon, Chief Wiggum, Krusty the Clown, Itchy & Scratchy, Mr. Burns and Milhouse. Each The Simpsons minifigure comes in a sealed ‘mystery’ bag with its own special accessories, display plate and collector’s leaflet. Buy a bag, open it up and see which one you get!

One thing to note about the list above is that some of the characters are different from what was reported last year from Nerdly.co.uk. They listed Moe as one of the minifigures but he isn’t on the list above so we’ll have to see which one is correct. I’m guess he won’t be cause of the job that he has as a bartender which isn’t really suitable for children.

There are a couple of teaser images of the LEGO The Simpsons Collectible Minifigures (71005) featuring arms of a couple of the characters. One image shows Ned Flanders holding a cup that says I Heart South Paws which is from his store, The Leftorium. Left-handers unite! The other image shows Homer holding a 1×1 round tile of a sprinked donut. We’ve already seen this image back in January at the 2014 Nuremberg Toy Fair. This version of Homer also has a 1×2 TV remote control. We should start seeing images of the LEGO Collectible Minifigures – The Simpsons Series soon. They will be available in May along with the TV episode on Fox.
