Re: Mystery Minifigure Cardboard Boxes - axaday (7301) | [...] I didn't. I don't think we are connecting here. What I'm saying is that the individual minifig boxes do not need to have any identifying mark for LEGO to [...]

| Re: Mystery Minifigure Cardboard Boxes - ghyde (203) | [...] TLG decide in advance what combinations will be in the cases. They certainly will have a means of tracking them. Logistics storage systems are designed for that kind [...]

Re: Mystery Minifigure Cardboard Boxes - tons_of_bricks (12724) | [...] I think it's a bad decision. As someone who isn't a serious collector of them, but merely buys the ones I like, I find this very annoying. I most likely will [...]

| Re: Mystery Minifigure Cardboard Boxes - axaday (7301) | I promise they are not going to mix them together and then resort individual boxes to go in the case. That’s a nightmare. If they spend any significant time packed in the Minifig [...]

| Re: Mystery Minifigure Cardboard Boxes - ghyde (203) | [...] For sure they had to use some identification code to store it in their warehouse. Perhaps nobody will discover it. Hopefully I'll find a complete set, or maybe I'll [...]

Re: Mystery Minifigure Cardboard Boxes - yorbrick (1182) | [...] If they really wanted to they could hide a code number in plain sight. For example, they could have a 16 digit code or barcode randomly assigned to each box, to confuse [...]

| Re: Mystery Minifigure Cardboard Boxes - ghyde (203) | [...] I don't buy that theory at all. It's not how TLG operates their production lines. It's a known fact that TLG use a production code system that ensures that [...]

| Re: Mystery Minifigure Cardboard Boxes - tEoS (5297) | Yes, it was a bit frustrating. I found 10 different packet codes in a fresh Marvel series 2 box, so I bought those. I ended up with 2 of Storm and 2 of Goliath. I was hoping [...]
