Series 7 feel guide (and some bump codes)

8 Comments

Thanks to signature MSSM we now have a complete feel guide for Series 7. MSSM has also provided the bump codes from the batch he has found (508B2 EU). Note that the bump codes can be extra hard to see in this series. And as they vary between between some batches and are sometimes printed up-side-down and sometimes mirrored and sometimes both and … whatever, it’s always better to rely on the feel instructions. Note also that the code for the Viking Woman has a “weak” dot. Enjoy!

LEGO Minifigures Series 6 showing up

This just came in from Philip Baker, in Sheffield, UK:

Awesome

According to Brickipedia this is the Galactic Girl.

Tesco had them. Not any longer. It was probably by mistake. Now the question is if those dot codes will be as hard to read and use as with Series 5. Judging from Philip’s picture it seems we can at least hope for clearer dot codes.

The dot codes are pretty clear!

But if they will be more or less useful, remains to be seen. Stay tuned!

I just sent an update of Mini Collector that makes use of the codes on the Minifigures Series 4 bags to help you keep track of your collection and avoid buying duplicates. It looks like so on the iPhone:

Some of the more similar patterns are grouped together.

Now, let’s hope Apple are quick to review this update.

Series 4 has codes!

I just found out, via this Facebook post, that the LEGO Minifigures Series 4 bags indeed has bump/dot codes. That’s pretty sweet! Expect Mini Collector to support those codes soon.

Mini Collector with Series 4 support sent to Apple

2 Comments

Icon@2xI just submitted a new version of Mini Collector to Apple for review. It includes an In App Purchase item with support for Minifigures Series 4 collectibles. Note that there’s, yet, no codes discovered for how to reveal the contents of the Series 4 packs. If such a method is discovered (see my question to you: LEGO Minifigures Series 4 bump codes?) I will add it to the app and anyone who buys Series 4 support now will get such an upgrade without additional charge. Also note that Series 4 support will cost $0.99 as an introductionary offer, then the price will be $1.99 (at least).

Pics or it didn’t happen? Alright, here’s one:

Series 4

No, I haven't collected any yet.

Game Center support then? Not in this first version. You have no idea how much work it is with Achievments. I totally regret that I added Game Center to the app in the first place, but I will of course continue to support it also for the coming series. Just give me some time. =)

LEGO Minifigures Series 4 bump codes?

Yes, the Series 4 bags have codes just like the Series 3 ones have. However, it seems they are even harder to see now than they were with Series 3. Yesterday I noticed a thing that might explain why sometimes it is nigh impossible to read the bump codes and sometimes not so hard; The bottom seal is sometimes cut so that most of the code is gone. Check this image:

Two Series 4 seal cuts

Watch out for when there's not enough of the bottom seal left for the bump codes to be readable.

I doubt this is the whole story behind “there seems to be different codes between different batches”, but it sure is important to know about this.

Once you have selected a pack that has enough fold left it’s time to start Mini Collector up. =) It uses these codes to help you keep track of your collection and avoid buying duplicates. It looks like so on the iPhone:

This article started out as a question. Kept below.

As I am at work with adding Series 4 support to Mini Collector, I wonder if anyone has seen or heard anything about a dot/bump code on the orange blind packs? If you have or if you do, please holler my way.

Another question: What do you call those codes?  I call them “bump codes”, but I’ve also seen “dot codes”. Are there more names for it?
