If you haven’t purchased any of the Series 15 LEGO Collectible Minifigures (71011) yet and if there are stores around you that are selling them, you might want to pick them up or be cautious about them. As per a report over on Reddit, there’s some sort of recall on them for whatever reason. Speculation from some is that it might be a legal issue caused by the Shark Guy who looks very similar to the Left and Right Shark from the Super Bowl XLIX Halftime Show last year. Some others think it’s just a recall because there are some issues with minifigures themselves or with their accessories like getting multiple torsos and no legs while some are getting multiples of a certain accessory.

If you look on Shop@Home, they’re already marked as sold out which is strange considering they were just released last month here in the US. Was this part of this whole recall thing or was it just a coincidence and they happened to sell out quickly. So far, it seems that is happening only in North America. As of this point, there is no official word from LEGO but I’ll keep you updated if there’s any news on it. If you picked up some of Series 15, did you have any quality control issues with them?

Update: Kim from the LAN has posted:

Just to be clear – we have not done a recall in 6 years and if we did, I am quite confident we’d all know.

If you’ve been waiting for the Series 15 LEGO Collectible Minifigures (71011) to be released on February 1st, you may want to check out Target stores. I’ve gotten a few messages from readers who have found them in stores and are able to purchase them without being blocked at the registers while paying for them. YMMV on that but it’s worth checking out. Of course if you’re in other parts of the world, they’ve already been released in the beginning of the year.

LEGO has announced it yet but in the latest LEGO Club Magazine, there’s a little blurb about the release date of the Series 15 Collectible Minifigures (71011). As you can see below, Series 15 will be available in February along with the Series 7 LEGO Mixels, most likely on February 1st. I know people have been wondering and asking about it since they were revealed a few weeks ago. They’ve usually had a January release the past few years but LEGO has some huge releases next month including the LEGO Nexo Knights, LEGO Ghostbusters Firehouse Headquarters (75827), the Brick Bank modular building, and the rest of the winter wave sets. I have a feeling that LEGO wanted to save something for February and not overwhelm everyone next month. For people across the pond, Shop@Home UK has Series 15 with a January release.

If you haven’t checked it out yet, WhiteFang has already done his review over on Eurobricks. I’ve also done my little feel guide for Series 15 if you’re interested.

Thanks to everyone who emailed/tagged me on this piece of info.

A few days ago, I posted WhiteFang’s review of the Series 15 Collectible MInifigures (71011) on my Facebook Page and since then, I’ve received quite a few emails on when my traditional feel guide post will be up for when the minifigures start showing up in stores in late December/beginning January.

Below is the box distribution from WhiteFang as well as a short guide on what to feel for when searching for a particular minifigure. Note that the dot method on the packaging does not work any more and feeling for the minifigures is the most surefire to get the one you want. I know some readers may want to skip this post entirely as you’re already seasoned veterans in this field. This post is mainly for readers who are new to feeling and collecting minifigures.

1. Farmer

The easiest way to find the Farmer is to feel for the pitchfork. The pig is also helpful but be careful that it is not the skunk.

All in a day’s work!
Every day, the hard-working Farmer gets up at sunrise when the rooster crows. He puts on his overalls, his well-worn boots and his old brown hat, and he goes outside to slop the pigs, milk the cows and feed the horses. After that, it’s time to collect fresh eggs from

Yesterday we had a first look at the Series 15 LEGO Collectible Minifigures (71011) but now we have clear official images of the packaging and box. There is also the product image of all the minifigures included in this wave. All we need now is the official names of the minifigures since the list below was a loose translation from French.
