My luck is the worst.
A LEGO community member recently shared an unfortunate experience after purchasing twenty blind boxes of minifigures directly from the official online LEGO store. Hoping to secure a diverse collection, the buyer ordered three boxes of six alongside two individual blind box singles, only to encounter remarkably poor luck with the distribution.
The two individual blind boxes both yielded duplicate Lord Farquaad minifigures. Meanwhile, all three of the six-pack boxes contained the exact same lineup of characters: Gingy, Lord Farquaad, Fiona, the Dragon, Pinocchio, and the Big Bad Wolf. This complete lack of variety resulted in an overwhelming amount of duplicates without a single unique variation across the entire order.
Due to this frustrating experience, the affected fan plans to avoid buying blind boxes directly in the future, stating they will likely only purchase a complete, verified set from eBay moving forward. This recurring issue highlights the ongoing frustrations collectors face with blind box distribution, where purchasing multiple multi-packs online frequently leads to identical box contents.
My luck has been horrendous. So i bought 20 minifigs online from the lego store. (3 boxes of 6 and 2 singles.) The two singles? Both Farquaad. The 3 boxes? All of them the exact same minifigs. Gingy, Farquaad, Fiona, the Dragon, Pinnochio, and the Big Bad Wolf. Oh well. Don't think i'll be buying more unless it's a full set on ebay lol. submitted by /u/CrateofTangerines [link] [comments]
