LEGO Minifigures Character Encyclopedia

[anthonyj8]

Smashing Bricks lets us know that a LEGO Minifigures Character Encyclopedia will soon be released:

"I was doing my annual pre-order of books and after a bit of digging through some catalogs I found a bunch of stuff that we all should be pretty excited about:

First up we have *drumroll* the LEGO Minifigures: Character Encyclopedia! And yes it comes with an exclusive minifigure (not surprising). The Character Encyclopedia will contain all your favourite LEGO Minifigures from Series 1 to Series 10. It’s 208 pages thick, priced at USD$18.99 and will arrive in May 2013."

Detail of Toy Soldier was revealed.

Find some pictures from HKLUG. Exclusive Toy soldier is outstanding. Very nice helmet, with cool printing at the side of leg and arms. I was disappointed that this was not showed up from CMF10, and I could only get 1 from the book. TLG did find another way to make $ from me. This could possibly be one of the expensive CMF in the mkt.

I am amused by the " dislikes fingeprints" in-joke on the Mr. Gold Entry.

It implicitly reminded seekers not to open the bag at the store during the process of searching him.

Go to Amazon an pre-order it for $10.10 currently. That's cheaper than what the minifigure will be by itself on eBay. Click on the Amazon affiliate link to support toysnbricks.

EDIT:

Also, to clarify, I'm referring to the toy soldier minifigure not Mr. Gold.
Link hopefully with the affiliate reference in it.

My $10.10 preorder from Amazon finally shipped yesterday. Good deal today from Target.

Target is free shipping when you spend $50.

"Daily deals" are always free shipping, no min needed. When the Target deal was first posted, it was $10/book w/ free shipping. Now that the daily deal is over, looks like the price went up $1---and yes, the order now needs to be $50 or purchased with a Red Card to get free shipping.

Oh cool, for $10 shipped, I probably would have bought it. I need to go to Target and get a Red Card.

Got the book in the mail today and just spent some time skimming through it with my son. I was reading all the interesting little tidbits while he was reading all the word bubbles. Haha. So each figure has a "see also" section and lists other "related" figures. For example the the Zombie lists the Mummy and the Monster and the Skater lists the other two skaters and so on. Can anyone tell me what the Nurse (S1) has to do with the Skier (S2). The Surgeon I get. And the Skier lists the Nurse, Snowboarder and Downhill Skier. I don't get it and it's driving me nuts. But I love the book!

I guess a skier would have need of a nurses services after a bad run.

I found both at Costco this past weekend for $11.99. Left them there

I got my Amazon preorder and haven't had a chance to look through it much, but it looks nice.
