NEWS: Lego Mini-Figures Series 6 Review (Plus Bump Decoder)


Fans of the blind-bagged Lego Mini-figures will be pleased to hear that Series 6 has landed at retail - and that the ''bump'' codes on the rear - which can be used to work-out which figures are within - may have been cracked...

Dan at The Toy Museum picked up 16 packs of figures and - by using the ''bump'' codes on the rear of each - was able to snag 13 unique figures from the latest wave. Personal highlights for me include the very cool Space Girl vs Alien and Minotaur vs Roman Legionary but you can see Dan's collection (so far!) at The Toy Museum.


Dan has also - rather kindly - shared a photo showing the ''bump'' codes on each pack, along with a tag to describe which figure is in which. As he says, it's not 100% accurate but it's a good way to narrow the odds on getting a specific figure.


See more at The Toy Museum.

  1. OK, must be missing something, cuz I don't see no bumps on the packages!

    1. They're not actually highlighted as they are in the images from The Toy Museum. You have to angle the packages to see the raised bumps. It's a little difficult at first but once you spot how it works, it's pretty straight-forward and reasonably accurate.
