The newest batch of minifigs are in stores now. As always I keep a list of feel guides on my What in the Bag? page, but I figured why not just do a new post as well.

APPs

The My Mini’s app has a feel guide for every LEGO minifigure series. They update it as new series are released. You can also use it to keep an inventory of your collection.

General Touch guide tips

  • Learn the common parts all figures have. Torso, legs (moveable for most figs, non movable short legs), and a head.
  • You feel for the accessories or body parts that are unique to each figure. sometimes you will need to verify by identify a second part.
  • Take one of the checklists with you to remind you of what items are in the series.
  • Hold the bag by one corner and shake it till the pieces fall to the bottom opposite corner of the bag.
  • Study previous series, A character in the current series might have a similar item as one in a previous series. Ned Flanders has a coffee mug. The computer programmer and gingerbread man has a coffee mug. If you have one of those put the mug in a bag and learn what it feels like.
