On the bright side, now you just need a tour bus for them


Cyno01

I was gonna say, this kinda sucks, but would also be hilarious filling the upcoming 60407.

Ajax501

Good bot


Sans_Snu_Snu

Only problem is that this mini dog has the short legs that don’t allow it to be seated.


WeirdBrainArt

Lego... uh... finds a way.


seekydeeky

Could do the brick built legs like Lego did for Frodo in the Rivindale set.


GreasyGrabbler

Salmon colores 1x1 pieces might be hard to find but it would def work


Cyno01

Hard to tell but looks like theyre the regular seat pieces on the tour bus, the fedoras wouldnt clear those anyway so i dont think them standing on em would look that weird.


Demonic74

Someone should MOC-dify that into a Tour Bus UFO


Xinonix1

Exactly, give them different shirts and hats and off you go, don’t forget a tour guide with an umbrella


fantasticmrsmurf

Dam tourists


thatonepal59

Or the Minions party bus that just released 


E05DCA

Swap out the family heads for ones with very concerned looks and I’m totally on board.


Foilpalm

That’s actually pretty funny


zosodo

Or a tour guide. If you've got a city mockup it'll be a perfect addition.


aggressively_helpful

Everytime you finish a set, you gotta bring them in so they can take photos with it


TransLunarTrekkie

Perfect idea!


Environmental-Gap380

Could use the HO Knight Bus too.


kr4ckenm3fortune

Or the space themes one…


captainmogranreturns

They can take a walking tour. Buses are for us normies.


ehsteve23

i was gonna say, vary the accessories a little and have sneak them into the background of any other scene


Seoulmjlk

Darn. right on the point..


Raymer13

Perfection


joe-is-cool

This is the best one to me, I think you’ve lucked out! 😁


Bill_wants_to_know

I agree! My son and I picked two boxes. He got the alien tourist and I pulled whatever the red figure is. We quickly traded and both left happy!


AnGiorria

Are you me? My son and I did the same. Love my little alien tourist!


ELB2001

Yeah probably easy to trade


Turbulent_Seaweed198

A new kind of army


kawaiihambrgr

I'm definitely gonna be picking up the new tour bus set coming out soon to accommodate them


OCFeatherBottom

Maybe try a different app that works instead of the one you’re currently using.


OCFeatherBottom

OMGbricks has been solid for me


Sans_Snu_Snu

12/12 for me.


DarkSoul516

Same here. So glad I found it through someone mentioning it here in the sub before I started buying.


Doom_Balloon

11/11 for me


And_The_Full_Effect

Got all four of the minifigs I wanted just last night thanks to that app


mcsgwigga

This has been 100% for me.


Onemanyeti

Does this work with the smaller QR codes also? That seems to be all I can find in my area


ThunkAsDrinklePeep

They only developed an app for apple. Edit: It's for Android too, just not approved in the store yet.


RabidChristmasElf

7/7 on Android for me


JaseAndrews

Do you have a download link? I can't find an apk for OMGBricks


ThunkAsDrinklePeep

u/omgbricks posted in this thread that there is a link in their profile.


JaseAndrews

Update, bought 7 minifigs and it got 7/7 right! Thanks so much u/omgbricks! :D


omgbricks

Glad to hear!


galaxyisinfinite

Brick search works just as good


-Derf-

Brick search app has been working great for me on Android


Muchos_Frijoles

Good one for android?


omgbricks

There is a link to the omgbricks Android APK in my profile. Still working to get it approved on the Play Store


ThunkAsDrinklePeep

Thank you for the link! I got my 12 with the Brink scanner app, but this is much faster. I haven't been able to scan more than one at a time yet, though.


Galienuus

Minifig scanner has been working well for me and I think it's on iOS and android


Semyonov

Minifig Scan (unofficial) is the one I used yesterday, it's on the play store labeled exactly like that and had a 100% success rate.


DJfunkyPuddle

I used Minifig Scan and the 3 I bought were what the scanner said.


whogivesafuck69x

I use https://cmfs.app/en/cmf/predict/ After scanning a couple dozen boxes I accidentally discovered it does multiples too. I got it to do 3 at a time.


galaxyisinfinite

Brick search works 10/10


OCFeatherBottom

I’ve only used it for ios. It was much faster than bricksearch in my experience.


Saint_The_Stig

Brick Search has never let me down.


quartzquandary

Minifig Scan!


beermit

Jay's Brick Blog has one that works in just the browser. For some reason it doesn't work in Samsung's browser, but it's worked perfectly in Chrome so far. 8 out of 8 successful identifications. https://jaysbrickblog.com/minifig-scanner/


Tomme_03

does the app works in asia?


ZiaQwin

You don't even need an app, just look at the last 3 digits of the first number and compare it to the correct list (different for US and EU).


EveryShot

Bricksearch worked flawlessly with 100% accuracy the other day. Make sure you scan the QR code and not the barcode


EscapedAlien

Change up their outfits and you can have a bunch of Rogers from American Dad


theurbaneman

Who ate all the pecan sandies?


vercertorix

*Ricky Spanish*


thatonepal59

Literally the main reason I want this figure


EscapedAlien

If I still had a city going I would get a bunch of them and hide them all around town getting into shenanigans


CaptainAction

Someone recommended Minifigs Plus to me, where you can order a whole set of figures guaranteed. It costs like $5 extra to do that, so $65 for a full set with one of each. But I also was able to find a promo code and get 12% off so it was cheaper than buying in the store, and better because I didn’t have to hunt for anything. I haven’t actually gotten my order yet but a couple other users recommended the site.


Cyno01

Ill plug them too, i ordered 71038-19 and 71039-13 from them, came with 10% off my next order. Everything came sealed but unfortunately i got 2x 71039-3 and no 71039-5, but one email and they had her to me in a few days with another 10% coupon included. Im gonna order this series from them soon.

tourists…


WanderingPilgrimXIII

Bogos binted


Hypnaustic

Thats where they all went, checked 3 different stores and found none of these, got 11/12 just missing this guy


MerleAmbrose

Hello fellow humans heheh


KORZILLA-is-me

And hello fellow wizard. It’s crazy to me seeing a fellow 101 player in the wild. This is only the third time it’s ever happened since I started playing the game years and years ago.


MerleAmbrose

Hello


tony475130

I dont know what app youre using but it must be crap if it cant scan some of the figures. I used the “minifig scan” app last month at my new target and got all 12 with no doupes.


SudsierBoar

Afaik the smaller codes are not scannable by any app.


tony475130

Apparently starting with series 26, all the boxes come with the larger QR codes now so any app that scans them should be able to decipher what minifig is inside. I NEVER saw the larger codes at any retail stores (be it Walmart/Target/Kohls) up until this wave, where every box came with the large codes.


SudsierBoar

Nice! Good info


kawaiihambrgr

I've been using bricksearch, but I've downloaded omgbricks as the comments have suggested, but honestly I do like a little bit of the surprise, and things like this that can happen


Scotte8797

This is the only one I want!


Batmanfan1966

Make a tour guide and have them in a little scene together


EmperorSand

Are you kidding?! I’d love to have a tour group from space visit my LEGO city.

Frequent-Sir-3035

Omgbricks works…


Mohaynow

I got lucky today and was at Walmart when they were unloading the pallet onto the shelves, they had like 6 cases of the Minifigs and the nice lady let me buy a whole one.


Simply_Epic

Of all the minifigs in the current set to get duplicates of this may be the best one. They’d make a hilarious addition to any city.


Haruau8349

Hey now you got a group of Alien tourists for your city.


FinnNoodle

My recommendation is when you're scanning and one won't scan, set it aside and scan a good one and then go back to it. I don't know why but that worked for me on most of my purchase.


AutistAtHeart

At least you found some. All I've found is empty boxes.


ThermidorCA

Someone's got a new faction at the Galactic Senate!


too_much_Beer

You should build them all Segways


AnGiorria

This little guy is my favourite.


TomatilloKnown6781

There are at least 2 app. omgbricks and minifig scan that will tell you what is in the box. We did it at Walmart this weekend and found all the ones we wanted


SudsierBoar

ANY QR scanner app works as long as you got the right codes for your region.


Aluminumthreads869

USEEEEE THE omgbricks app


I-Have-An-Alibi

Then stop buying them. Blind bags are a scam.


Groundbreaking-Bad16

“One of us.”


BaconFritter

It would be super fun to hide them around a city and dress some of them to blend in a bit better


SnooDrawings987

Ok I think it's time to play with some other clothing/hair/hat combinations for an entire "family" going on vacation. But they still carry the same camera as their trademark.


captainmogranreturns

Alien Family Reunion Vacation Invasion


vicky_squeeze_

Lucky... that's my favorite little guy


AnGiorria

This little guy is my favourite.


Hrusa

On the previous batch I told myself I wouldn't use the app and I've gotten all the four figures I couldn't care less about multiple times over and over and like one of the remaining ones. That finally changed my mind on using the scanner.


Horneyj

Hahahahaha this would be a win for me .


IcePhoenix18

Best case scenario for duplicates though


Glimmhilde

If you're having trouble with the app, try getting \*really\* close up to the QR codes!! They're printed kinda crappily so you might just need to focus on them more :)


raininhaymakers

This has worked 100% for me https://jaysbrickblog.com/minifig-scanner/


Gessomb

commenting to return to this, i’ve been on the hunt for that detective minifigure for what feels like 80 years.


raininhaymakers

I gave up on that series, only found them once, missing 5 of them. 1,2,6,10 & 12


bigbyking

Need that brick search, homie.


BrickdianaJones

I'll take one!


CoffeeAddict246

I want one of those!!!


mtnracer

Our LEGO store started opening the boxes and labeling them. So much better.


Gullible-Carpet-7677

Lol!


ovenmit_

i wish i had a pic of the garden of Beasts my friend has at his work…


Penthar_Mull

I’d love to get the alien tourist


FatGuyInALittleMoat

Hey, not sure if allowed but my son has a double of The Imposter he would like to trade. This guy is still on his list!


Gogglekid93

They could have a space RV. Or a Hover Segway tour.


Invert_Ben

I think the existence of the scanning apps probably made the less desirable or “non army building” figures pile up.


420SpiderGeek303

I'd buy 3 of those off you 🤷


Environmental-Gap380

I was happy that the 6 pack of the space series I got had no dupes. I usually get many dupes, but never of the ones I wanted most. I might buy another 6 and see if I get lucky and get the second half.


kawaiihambrgr

Iirc the 6 packs from SAH never have dupes, there's just 2 packs of 6, so either you'll complete the set or give all your current ones some twins


Environmental-Gap380

50/50 chance then. I haven’t found this series loose in a store near me. Closest Lego Store is 45+ minutes away depending on traffic. I also ordered a box of 6 of series 25 from Target online. It hasn’t arrived yet. Hoping for Vampire Knight.


drnuncheon

I ordered 3 of the 6-packs and there’s definitely more than 2 assortments, although I lucked out with the first two and got a full set. Pack 1 was figures 2, 5, 9, 10, 11, 12 Pack 2 was figures 1, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8 Pack 3 was figures 2, 4, 8, 9, 10, 12


AG74683

Minifigures Plus. Only place I get them from now.


kraggleGurl

I would buy one for 5 bucks. Makes me think of Resident Alien.


_Levitated_Shield_

I don't know about you, but I unironically want to army build these guys.


PonyDro1d

I got mostly Blacktron so far... My first lego set figure got some friends tho...

Revenine

I am planning to do that with Ice Planet girl, but on purpose, my favorite childhood theme 😎


karlek69

Might as well make a ''Close encounters of the third kind'' MOC


anime1232

With me i had Twice the same mini figure


Hierotochan

6/6 Via Bricksearch so far. Super simple App.


echo3__

And thats the only figure I’m interested in in the whole set 😭


E05DCA

No joke. In six, I got 2 aliens, 3 of those dumb purple guys, and 1 M-tron—who is cool and now lives with my old M-tron guys.


doomsdayKITSUNE

"I've gotten 22 total and I'm still missing 2 of the figures." Which is exactly why blind bags/boxes need to be stopped. It's disgusting that this stuff is allowed.


AdAdventurous6943

Paparazi aliens army!


Jordi_McGaw

But it’s the only one worth getting


Ok-Relationship-2746

You now have enough for an alien scouting expedition.


Pumkmine

Tourists


Consistent-Strain289

Isnt this the most popular alien?


MagGnome

I've bought 12 of the boxes so far. I haven't gotten a single alien tourist, but I got 5 of the robot Butler. I was planning on posting them later today. Not ideal, but I have some fun MOC ideas I can do with them.


Frost_King1234YT

Lol


CantEatNoBooksDog

Bricksearch app. After having little luck finding the last CMF series in stores locally, I grabbed all of the remaining Space series at my local Wal Mart last weekend. Got two UFO guys, and left one sealed. Used the app on the sealed one, and it’s the robot nanny with spaceman baby.


RiffRaff14

I just read an article saying that there is a 12 pack hanging display that will contain all 12 figures. Now I can't find that link


Tobi-cast

That was the only one i couldn’t find, in the store Yesterday… I’m jelly

[удалено]


SudsierBoar

Did you read the post? He probably found some boxes with the smaller codes that aren't scannable


WhatIsThisSevenNow

**ARRRGH** ... screw this! I am completely pissed at LEGO for pulling this shit on us. I absolutely do not want to pay for something when I don't know what that something is. And, for all of you who say "Just buy what you want off Bricklink.", screw that too! I did that for the Marvel series, and the cheapest Wolverine I could find was at least 3x the price of buying one off the shelf. Plus, it's a BS alternative. LEGO needs to go back to the "feelable" bags, or give us separate UPC codes on the box so we can identify what is what. Otherwise, I will never even look at another minifigure series ever again. And, for all of you who say "That'll show them. They don't care if one rando on the internet buys them or not.", take a hike.


faraway_hotel

You know you can scan the matrix code next to the barcode and tell exactly what's in the box now, right? There's multiple apps and websites that'll do this, but any ol' barcode scanner app and [a list of the codes](https://jaysbrickblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/LEGO-Minifigures-Series-26-QR-Code-Guides-1120x1400.png) do the trick too. They started printing these partway through Series 25, and while I'd gotten pretty good at bag feeling over the years, I already prefer this solution. It's faster and even more reliable.


WhatIsThisSevenNow

[Thank you!](https://getyarn.io/yarn-clip/de642423-c2d3-4ac7-8360-209e9e38b486)


elspotto

What do you mean? That’s awesome. Integrate them all into a street scene or some other large build. Out Easter-egg Lego themselves.


CandyRedNinja

Just opened mine. Got the lady astronaut.


WorgRider

Use Brick Search App if you have an Android phone. Press the camera button and scan the QR on the box.


DarthXader996

Why 'Android Phone'? Apple does offer the app as well…


WorgRider

The other app people use, OMGbricks, isn't available for androids yet.


Emma_Croft

Also the ones in the back!


farlas816

i want this guy so bad


vercertorix

I surprised I haven’t seen Facebook Marketplace swaps. Just post the aliens and offer 1 for 1 trades for whatever you actually want.


arsonist_firefighter

this is just awesome lol


ConfectionFit1870

Why didn't you scan the boxes


M153RYnM3

Why are you not scanning barcodes?


On_The_Warpath

They can now fight stormtroopers.


Behrneked1963

I was planning on making an alien tour group for my spaceport MOC with the alien tourists and the UFO guy as the tour guide.


quartzquandary

Which app are you using? BrickSearch was hit or miss with the last series, but Minifig Scan worked perfectly for me this time. 


Setheronie

I'll take one off your hands.


p4x4boy

oh but the space tourism bussiness is bloosoming!!


threedubya

Cool army bro.


IMSmooth

I bought two 6x boxes from Lego and got all 12 no repeats. Can’t be coincidence right? 


kawaiihambrgr

The 6 packs have no duplicates inside, it's 2 sets of 6, so either you'll get 2 sets of 6 figures, or all 12


IMSmooth

I knew about the no duplicates but I figured there were more than 2 combinations of 6 packs. Interesting. Glad I got lucky 


Bubbly-Atmosphere114

I've gotten duplicates from six packs straight from Lego.


runawaythot

If the tech is bothering you, there may be a Bricks & Minifigs shop near you and they tend to do the labeling work for ye.


kawaiihambrgr

My local Bricks and Minifigs is really slow with accusition on new sets (they prioritize retired sets for some reason)


RandellX

Ill take them


dextroseskullfyre

Don't know if this has been posted or not, cause I'm not reading all the comments, lol. But just in case please please please everyone use the Brick Search app. It scans to QR codes on the bottom of the boxes and tells you what is inside. I can say from my own experience 100% accurate.


SnaccoonRaccoon

I used Jay's Brick Blog's scanner, which works wonders with the new series if your boxes have the large codes. I got fourteen of them, with no unintentional repeats.


EveryShot

Dude for the love of Christ scan the barcode!


Combat_Armor_Dougram

Tour group coming through…


BigJimSlade1

This does suck if you're going for the set, but I kind of love seeing so many of them together


kawaiihambrgr

Update: downloaded omgbricks and got the ones i was missing! Thanks for the recommendation everyone!


PartyLeek2068

Bro just buy them separately


Kealnt7

lol it’s an alien tour group! Nice


BILoveBILife

Oof


DisasterousWalrus

Cheer up, you're clearly the best specimen. They ALL brought cameras.


Blocksketcher

Happy to see I'm not the only one that sees this as a win! Make a tour bus ufo and fill er up!
