The last two MiniFigs which I needed proved to be very elusive. I tried both our local toys shops and despite the kind shop owners allowing me to fondle every bag... I just couldn't find them.
The Forest Maiden should have been easy to find with her unmistakable triangular (dress) body, her shield and her bow, but still I could not find her. I was really looking forward to her arrival as she looks pretty super and has a brand new female hair cut.

Series 9 - a 3rd serving
As soon as the Christmas Bank holidays were over it was back to the Toy Shop for me..... Phewph, there was still a box full of Series 9. Time to fondle some bags.
First I found what was probably the Fortune Teller - easily identified by her Triangular dress (instead of Legs) and the two small pieces that are Tarot cards. Next up was the Hollywood Starlet (aka Marilyn Monroe) again identifiable by her dress and then finding her Oscar/trophy.

A Lego-ey Christmas
Phewph, despite Mikeys announcement on Christmas Eve Eve that he hadn't got me any Lego, my Christmas ended up pretty darn Lego-ey. =D
Recognising his error... he ran out on Christmas Eve and returned with a bagful of Lego. (Plus we had also failed to realise that other people may also buy me Lego too.)

Woop! Series 9 are here!
A few days ago I was shocked to see a few pics on Flickr of some Series 9 Minifigs.... They weren't supposed to be out until January!
Anyway, I was heading into town last Friday so I popped in the newly re-opened Toy Shop to see if they had a release date. The toy shop had changed quite a bit but the Lego shelves were pretty much empty. We had a browse at other stuff and I was just heading towards the door, when I felt a tap on my shoulder. Mikey had spotted a box on the counter. It was Series 9!
I gasped! The lady behind the till laughed. I told her off for not telling me (she knows me) and she said she had told Mikey a few days ago. What? He never told me? Turns out she hadn't told him! She had mistakingly told him they had Series 8, which he knew I had. (They had been closed when it had first released.)
