As you probably saw from yesterday’s post about the LEGO Collectible Minifigures Series 16 (71013) being available in stores, there are some new details about them. It seems that there are reports the street date for them is possibly tomorrow, July 18. There is also a box breakdown of the minifigure distribution from CM4Sci on Eurobricks:
5 per box
Banana Guy
Arabian Knight
Spy
4 per box
Serenader
Imp
Hiker
Rogue
Dog Show Judge
Spooky Boy
3 per box
Babysitter
Pirate
Cyborg
Ice Queen
Penguin
Kickboxer
Wildlife Photographer
If you’re searching for some of the more highly sought-after minifigures like the Babysitter, Penguin Guy, or the Wildlife Photographer, you might have a harder time finding them since they only come three in a box. However, a popular one like the Banana Guy should be plentiful. I’ll have my “feel guide” for the Series 16 Collectible Minifigures up in a day or so stay tuned if you’re waiting for it.

I’ve seen LEGO designers say they really do try to distribute the most of what they believe will be the most popular minifigs. I know everybody has different taste and people collect different LEGOs for different reasons. I just can’t believe that the Spy and the Arabian Knight are 2 of the 3 most popular. It’s common for me to be surprised, however, by how much I end up liking a minifigure I initially had no interest in.
I’m most excited for the Serenader and the Dog Show Judge.
I think the ice queen will be popular, but also one of the easier ones to pick out. At least at the Lego store if you’re really nice and buying a bunch, they’ll usually bring out a fresh box for you if you ask.
