    Looks cool. Can't wait to see the other minifigures from the film.
    Wait a minute! Fury has a SHIELD logo on him! I guess SHIELD is back in Far From Home.

    They used to have a coding system on the back of the package but it was so subtle it was easier to just grope the bag until you figured out which fig it was.

    The first two series were the only ones with barcodes to identify figures. Others have had stamped codes but they have never been consistent.

    It's a better attempt than the last three. Hard to believe that I still like the first one the best.

    The uniforms being all samey is a little disappointing from a toy perspective (variety would've been better) but that's not Lego's fault. They're just following the story of Endgame. That Quinjet does look pretty cool though.

    Broke just about everything in my hands in an accident years ago and my nerves there are a bit jittery. It's annoying because I did the last CMF no problem without a single double and I was utterly convinced this time that I'd accurately identified the ones I'd picked. Thankfully the day after was better and I went six for six towards the collection. Just need the Business Golfer and Dorothy now to have the full set. Pity I reckon those will be the hardest two for me to feel out. I'll probably also get another Unikitty to replace the one I got with the defective tail.

    Lego Creators Mustang is up for ordering. The free promotional keychain isn't showing up in my cart though. Hmm. Might need to give Lego a few hours to fix that bug. Free Unikitty Roller Coaster train car though.

    I wound up with Two Golfer Businesses, if you have any doubles of the Guitar playing Kitty, Chick with hula skirt and record or guy in watermelon costume we could work out some sort of trade? Maybe.

    Thanks for the kind offer but I lucked out today and got the golfer and Dorothy I needed to complete the set.
    However, my younger sister decided today she wanted the four Wizard of Oz figures herself so I've been feeling out those and just need Dorothy (again) to sort her out so I might still end up with doubles of the ones you seek. Are you UK based?

    The watermelon guy should be really easy for you to feel out though with that big flat chunk of plastic in there. I definitely felt a few today during my searches.

    Actually in Canada... which I think may still be attached as one of the colonies or something. Yeah, I'm going to try some more hunting on the weekend myself, that elusive Dorothy is driving me batty.

    Got these in today! A little worse for the trip but not bad. Budgeting for our new house is forcing me to be tighter with my funds though and I’d rather get the mustang than the dinner set above. 115 + shipping if anyone wants it.

    I wish you good luck. I noticed Dorothy's hair is made of a more rubbery plastic than the others so that might be helpful to you when feeling packs. Also gotta be careful not to mistake the lady with the mohican cat for Dorothy and Toto since her hair and the cat can feel quite similar to Dot and the dog.
