On September 1st new LEGO minifigs will be available.
I saw this reddit post with what someone ended up with in 2 6 packs from Amazon. They did receive a duplicate of the tiefling warlock in one of them so it is still possible to get a duplicate in the 6 packs. Aside from that one duplicate, they had insanely good luck!Anyone know what happens if I order the six pack via Amazon?
Do I get six different ones?
If I order two do I get two packs of six random different ones?
They've got two castle era sets back in production. With the D&D dragon+dungeon set and any Harry or LotR set you can easily build dungeons now.I don't want collectable minifigs, I want an "Adventurers Pack" with a bunch of heads for the different species and various equipment pieces and accessories so players can build their own minis for tabletop. Then a dungeon pack so you can make scale dungeon maps for play.
I still hold that there are many figures it'd be worth having multiples of, for parts. I'd like extra paladins for the armors, extra rangers for the wings, both for the heads, an additional druid and barbarian to pose with full legs...I'll probably roll the dice and get two of the six packs.
Any extras can go in my Christmas decor "le chalet alpine" set
Nice! The Lego store near me didn’t have them labeled and had them limited to 5 per customer, which to be fair is probably the only reason I was able to get 5 two days after release.I still hold that there are many figures it'd be worth having multiples of, for parts.

So far I've got six. I'd buy a six pack if it wasn't more expensive than getting them individually. (About four dollars more expensive). The people in the Lego store close by have even pre-marked the boxes so you don't need the app!
Thankfully, with Lego this is less of a problem than with other toy products. Lego is very good with distribution, and so far I have found the D&D minifigs very easy to find. On Lego stores, Toys 'R us, and on middle to high end stores like Sears and its sister chain. (In my country, Sears is middle to high end)We should take care about a possible bubble created by speculators.
I'm not sure how willing game studios will be to work with Hasbro after Larian dumped the chance for Baldurs Gate 4. Any chance of this panning up would be if Hasbro allowed Lego to sublicense and have studios work with Lego instead of a combined Hasbro and Lego. I don't see this happening.It is curious, but now I am thinking Nentir Vale/Points of Light could be perfect for a D&D:LEGO setting. If there is a D&D: LEGO videogame, the setting should be Nentir Vale instead superfamous Forgotten Realms, at least because we shouldn't put all the eggs in one basket.
Almost every AFOL on the web is convinced the Rivendell set should have been a modular line like the Harry Potter Howards castle. But Lego is so much into pushing bigger and bigger sets for adults with adult budgets that have insane margins that any theme with any semblance of adult appeal will just consist of these large expensive sets. For example, Harry Potter and Star Wars have been started facing out cheaper sets in favor of more expensive ones.My advice is little boxes or sets, because if they are cheaper then children will can save money sooner, instead awaiting Christmas or birthday for the big packs.
