JeffBohn Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 Anyone else collecting these? Like other Mega Bloks, they have the codes printed on the blind packaging, so that helps! https://www.megabloks.com/en-us/shop/construction-toys/despicable-me-minions Series two of the 'blind' box/bags has been a pain in the butt to find. I've seen remnants at a few Wal-Marts. And by remnants I mean 3 open boxes and two empty boxes. Waiting on a sale at TRU before picking up some of the building sets though. I've not seen the castle anywhere, and the blind package for series 3 shows a Dinosaur escape set that the website doesn't list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UK Collector Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 Didn't even know these existed. Season 2 looks great. Haven't seen these anywhere in the UK and I always check out the block figure stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrClean Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 Haven't seen series 2 of the boxes (didn't even know about them), but series one changed them all to have the same codes in later cases. Fortunately I got series 1 when they were individual codes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homestar17 Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 I love the minions & have been picking them up whenever I see them. They are perched on my window sills around the house with most of my other figs. Super cute! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mysterious Stranger Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 My wife LOVES the Minions and I've been tempted to get these for her. I haven't yet but I'm probably going to start collecting them and saving them all for a Christmas gift. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiniFiend UK Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 Didnt know about these but the scooter an dance party sets are very nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cappy Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 (edited) Oh, heck yes! Sadly, I haven't seen anything after Series 1 in my area. Is this true, what MrClean says, about the unique codes being dropped? This would be very un-Mega- Bloks-like and a very dark day in the history of MB collecting. I see that both 2 and 3 are on eBay, at despicable pricing. *muttergrumble* Edited July 3, 2015 by Cappy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffBohn Posted July 12, 2015 Author Share Posted July 12, 2015 (edited) 20% off at Toys R Us from 7/12-7/18. Still need to pick up a couple of the sets, been waiting for a sale! Edited July 12, 2015 by JeffBohn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UK Collector Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Darn. Never mind. I'm surprised we don't have these in the UK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arnim zola Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 At first I was going to call BS then I looked at the photo again and there really rent any doubles.Insanity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffBohn Posted July 14, 2015 Author Share Posted July 14, 2015 Yeah, they are good at changing facial expressions (mouths and eyes) enough to make them different. And if they don't, I'm not opposed to switching hair tufts or hats to make them different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrClean Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 I saw the series 3 boxed figures today at Walmart, which are the same as the movie Minions in the TRU blind bags. Still no series 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homestar17 Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 Target also has the bags for Series 3 -- they are also on sale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffBohn Posted July 15, 2015 Author Share Posted July 15, 2015 Looks like there was a giveaway of a special Minion at SDCC also. Plenty on eBay under $10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
