If you've got time for Lego, you've got time to feel up some packages, which is time-consuming, but usually accurate.HardtravelingHerohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08934695675331373414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-795049240604897581.post-80848916434725253802010-10-06T10:43:15.632+01:002010-10-06T10:43:15.632+01:00in my opinion TLC did not do it correctly. People ...in my opinion TLC did not do it correctly. People want Spartans, egyptians, vampires & Zombies. Why give singers, dummies & divers? No. I do not want doctors or wrestlers. And i do not want all of them to collect. I want the ones i want. So 'cheating' is fair in my opinion...fffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04991543913489603630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-795049240604897581.post-52495559013893795112010-09-08T08:15:46.239+01:002010-09-08T08:15:46.239+01:00Ah - so it's YOU who has all the Spartans........Ah - so it's YOU who has all the Spartans.....drdavewatfordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17046583913458496903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-795049240604897581.post-43980730346057206972010-09-08T05:10:18.043+01:002010-09-08T05:10:18.043+01:00I decided to cheat, having 18 Zombies and 25 Spart...I decided to cheat, having 18 Zombies and 25 Spartans New in sealed wrappers.. waiting for series 3 and 4 to come out.. waiting to trade my hoards for a hand full of the best series 3 and 4 has to offer..<br />who cares about not having bar codes??? when you have Spartans and Zombies to trade.. you can get anything you want...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-795049240604897581.post-86532036409704199642010-09-07T09:38:55.386+01:002010-09-07T09:38:55.386+01:00I got the 2 series from non official way too.

Well, I sort-of cheated with CMFs2... I was with my 3.5 y/o daughter (who wants a set to herself) and went up to the counter the first time with about 28 packets. Well, the clerk only let me buy 16, so it was a crapshoot after he piled hers and mine together (after I had made sure to grab 16 different barcodes as I didn't have thh cheatsheet with me). I ended up with 9 uniques that time around, giving my daughter the dupes. I then hit the NYC LEGO Store and finished off my set, and got some of the dupes I wanted along with some more for my daughter's set.<br /><br />Knowing that CMFs3 will be released sans-secondary barcode, I'll gladly enter the "collect 'em, trade 'em with your friends" arena. But seriously, if you're going to make it that easy for me to cheat, I'm going to!vynsanenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-795049240604897581.post-80052932766416037152010-09-03T21:11:23.209+01:002010-09-03T21:11:23.209+01:00Yep, I heard the same about series 3 - the barcode...Yep, I heard the same about series 3 - the barcodes apparently won't give the game away. We're therefore facing the possibility of a lottery, which is a total pain. The LEGO community is pretty resourceful, though - I wouldn't bet against someone coming up with work-around so we're back in business - we shall see !drdavewatfordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17046583913458496903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-795049240604897581.post-6415642452064381852010-09-03T19:02:41.414+01:002010-09-03T19:02:41.414+01:00It might be "cheating" but you won't...It might be "cheating" but you won't be able to after this series, so it doesn't really matter.<br />I tried cheating and screwed up!
