Adding a new dimension to collecting LEGO's iconic action figure series, starting with this month's Series 12, every physical figure comes with a code to unlock them for play in LEGO Minifigures Online — and they're so cool. Funcom's Minifig-powered MMO has been in beta for several months, during which players have been limited to using in-game currency purchased or earned through play to purchase virtual Minifigure packs, each containing one random character from series 9, 10 or 11. Seeing as each new Minifigure unlocked packs a unique power set used to take down the game's enemies in click-heavy action role-playing game style, that's been more than enough. But now we've got LEGO Minifigures Series 12 hitting store shelves, with 16 never-before-seen figures to play with, including the wonderfully goth Spooky Girl, a man in a pig suit and my personal favorite, the Gamer. This is the first basic Minifigure set released while LEGO Minifigures Online has been functional, so it gets special treatment.
Each tiny blind-bagged figure is packed with a sheet containing a series checklist and a code for unlocking the figure for play in the game. Each of the 16 new characters, from the Genie to the Pizza Guy, is a playable character in the game, each possessing their own unique powers. As a gamer who has been collecting these wonderful little plastic jerks for years, it's the best thing ever. I'd much rather spend four dollars on a physical figures and its in-game counterpart than four bucks for a random virtual character from an earlier series. Now, instead of simply rushing home from the store and praying to plastic Jesus that I didn't buy any doubles, I'm doing that and then quickly logging into the game to add each Minifig to my arsenal. It's an extra way to play with your toys or — if you're a collector who is also the parent of small children — a way to let your kids play without fear of losing any pieces. LEGO Minifigures Online is a free-to-play game, currently in open beta on PC.
The game will officially release later this fall on both PC and tablets.Page Not Found (404) Sorry, what you're looking for can't be found!

Here's how it works: Anybody can ask a question The best answers are voted up and rise to the top I would love to have one of each minifigure from the various LEGO Minifigure series. Unfortunately, as you receive a random minifigure in each package, this is more difficult than it should be.
I either have to purchase a lot of extra packages and hope that I eventually span the entire set, or I have to pay exorbitant amounts on the Internet for the minifigures I need to complete my collection. Is there a simple and reliable way, when I am in the store, to determine what minifigure is in the package? It can be done, but you need to be able to handle the packages. Different minifigure series may require different approaches, from barcodes to patterns of dots or dimples to feeling for certain characteristic parts in the bags. Those approaches have been documented in a number of places: Series 6 (feel + dots) Also, since every box has a set quantity of each minifig, if you buy a full unopened box of 60, you will get a full set of the minifigs. (More than one set in fact, but you'd have to look at the per-box quantities to see if it's 2 or 3.) I managed to get the five minifigures I wanted, right every time by feeling the bags. It takes patience and a good understanding of how different bricks feel.
There are some guides online that show you which individual pieces to look for. Use the process of elimination. If you're looking for the Witch minifig, look for a bag with slope instead of legs. The Witch is the only minifig in it's series that has no legs piece. Working in a store that sold collectible minifigures, I can tell you that you cannot differ each minifigure by barcode. The individual bags are packaged randomly inside a box of 60. There is an uneven quantity of minifigures so some are rarer then others, the quantity of each minifig is the same for each box. In the end, nothing's more reliable then your own X-ray machine... The cheapest approach is to buy a box online, keep the figures you want, and sell the rest. The most hassle-free approach is to buy the figures you want online. Either individually or as a set. Another option to help finish off your collections is BrickLink, sort of the eBay of LEGO. There are plenty of sellers in the US with a large amount of reputation
Here is a link to BrickLink with a listing of the Collectible Minifigs: Be sure to buy the 'complete set' figs otherwise you will probably not get the accessories. My boys and I purchased a precision scale for nine dollars from Harbor Freight and set it to grams. We purchased ten Lego minifigures series nine. We measured the ten empty packages for a weight of 19.8333 grams and divided by 10 to get an average wieght of 1.983 grams, or rounded to 2 grams. We then weighed the ten inserts showing the 16 numbered, named and pictured figurines, they weighed 28.8333 grams and divided by 10 to get an average weight of 2.833 grams, or rounded to 3 grams. We then made a list from 1 to 16 and named each number with its respective figurine and weighed each to get the following and adding the weight of the insert plus the package for a total package weight of: Lego Minifigures Series 9 Number, Figure Name, Figure Weight in grams, Figure + P&I weight for total weight -4 Knight 6.8 11.7
-5 Cesar 5.3 10.2 -6 Cop 5.4 10.3 -9 Cleo 7.0 11.9 -10 Judge 5.9 10.8 -11 Alien 7.3 12.2 -12 Mermaid 7.6 12.5 -13 Spaceman 6.2 11.1 -14 Jekle/Hide 5.4 10.3 -15 She Shield 7.5 12.4 Insert 2.9g Total wt. 28.8333g Package 2.0g Total wt. 19.8333g P&I 4.9 grams (this will be added to each individual figurine weight) Note that the missing weights are the figurines we still lack. We got 3 repeats and their weight varied by less than 0.01 gram. So, what we did next was to go on our hunt and stealthly enter the toy stores, break out the digital scale, zero it out and weigh the package. We made the list from heaviest to lightest and what we are going to do is to purchase just those weights that we do not have. Following is said list: Number, Figure Name, Weight in grams, Figure + P&I weight for total weight, As we find the new weights I'll try to repost and upgrade the new information. If someone has the figures we don't have and could post just their figure weight, we would greatly appreciate it.
Lastly, the insert weights were right on the money and exact to each other, but the packages did vary above and below the average by around 0.15 grams. What would have been more scientifically significanly would have been if we had weighed each bag that came with each unique figure, but we were so much in a hurry to battle that we lost focus. I think the varience in the package bag weight has to do with sloppy manufacturing than stratigic engineering to confuse us. Theoretically, it shoud be possible to tell the minifigures apart by weight, but you would need highly precise scales to do so. i find it rather easy to feel for the minifigures. All you have to do, is identify a uncommon trait that only that minifigure has, and then feel for that. for example, the conquistador has a breastplate. just feel for something bendy, hollow on 2 sides. its not that hard.
