Lego 8833 CMF Series 8

[UnknownUser]

According to this australian toy website it lists Lego 8838 Series 8 with a release date of 9/14. But do note that this is in australia, so it could be slightly earlier for the rest of the world. Price is listed as AUD$4.99 so it looks like the price is still $2.99...

They should make a mini, of a mini figure collector, that would be meta. Or they could
Just make a hobo, because that's what I will be if they keep pumping these out.

I really don't know why they pump out so many series of them - we're at 6 right now - why have 3 different series a year?!?

Yes, it would be a better idea if TLG could slow down.

I don't mind the three series a year, but I don't like that they are coming out with regular sets that are repeating some of the figures i.e. Lego Monsters, which as far as I can tell has the Frankenstein monster, mad scientist, vampire, mummy, and witch from the minifigure series. I think it's lousy of them to be destroying the collectability of their own toys by doing that.

To be too hard on them yet, I think it is possible the monster hunters pics are not actual sets, only prelim with CMF figs as place holders.

There will probably be variations - I don't think they will be 1:1 - probably some details will be different (very easy for them to do). It's hard to imagine that they put the exact ones into future sets.

I imagine they will keep up the pace so long as the each series sells out before it can be clearanced out or put on sale through their own website. I like the variety and being interested in collecting year round so I don't mind three series in a year. I just wish I would see them in stores long enough for them to be on sale!

3 series a year wouldn't be so bad if they were $1.99 a piece.

I believe that lego made way too many for series 3,4 and 5. Plenty around for Bogo50. TRU still has series 4 and 5.

Getting sick of these to be honest. Especially the second grade Chinese plastic they use to make 'em.

I suppose it boils down to the supply and demand and if I ever get the drop on the ebay scalper that lives in my area I would see them on sale once in a while lol!

If you are getting sick of them then don't buy them, it's that simple.

How many a year do you think is good? I think one series every 4 months is perfect. Now they just need to stop having a skater or snow boarder and have another skier or cheerleader beign most of us never got those.
