Looks like a fun flip through. It'll be fun looking back through for the minifigs from ye olden days.

I'm more inclined to buy digital copies of books, even with this once, because the figures aren't exclusive, but it looks like it would make a great gift for a LEGO minifig fan of any age that doesn't already have the book.

I have been wishing for this book forever and I am so happy they finally made it. It's on my Christmas list but I sure wouldn't mind seeing it sooner! This is a great giveaway.

I haven't been that long into Lego, so this book would be a great look into the history of the minifigs. Besides, my daughter could spend hours looking at it (and deciding who every figure is -- her grand-father, her aunt, her friend, etc.)
I'll definitely consider buying it, though a Star Wars specific one will probably come first.

I would love to get this book though I have the standing small book already. If I don't win the raffle, I guess I will have to go to costco in toronto area to buy it as they are selling it at 50% off or $19.99cdn. You cannot beat that price - not even at amazon

I have almost all of the recent lego books so this is no a brainer. Price could be a bit better, but I'll live with it. :-D

I saw this book at a book store. It was really cool and I almost bought it right then. It would be a cool book that shows the evolution of the minifigure. My girls would have fun reading through it with me. I hope I win!

My local B&N bookstore has this at MSRP... a little to high compared to the online price (which they won't price match). Having said this, I had hoped that it would be a definitive reference guide on how to reassemble the multitudes of minifigs my kids have swapped / altered over the years back to their original form.... a much bigger and challenging task than I had anticipated.

I'm all about the data and the history here, but I really don't like "static" history. I'd much rather see a wikipedia established with the complete history and all the figs. I've always been impressed with the DK books though. High quality prints and construction, and easy enough reads. I've only bought ones in the past that had exclusive figs, but I'm not sold on buying this one just yet.

My boys would love this. I just spent a fair amount of time reading a similar book from the library.

As a new Lego collector I love looking through the history of the various product evolutions and minifigures are no exception. I'm looking forward to this book!

I will definitely buy this book! It's a perfect gift to my sons for Christmas. I have 6 other DK books about LEGO and I'm looking forward to reading what they write about the 30 years of minifigs we've got in our house.

So far so good. I Usually purchase all the DK Lego books. This will be a nice one to add to my collection.

Would love to show my boys how minifigs have changed over the years, in one book. Can't wait to get this for them this Christmas!

Looks good. I'll eventually get this book since I own most of the other books already.
