I have been really busy with family all over my house this past week, so I have not posted very much. I thought I would try to make up for it with a picture of some pretty rare minifigures that I just picked up recently!
EDIT: I received a few comments from readers. Here it is below.
“It was a gift to celebrate opening of two LBR shops in first half of this year, Paris in April and then Shanghai in May i think. That yellow brick is printed from both sides 😉 Even the prouction number you have right, aprox 200 girls and 200 boys where made. Gifted only to employees in Lego SMCD Kladno about month ago.”
“They were produced 4 kinds of figures one blond girl in the picture is missing from each type produced only 50pcs of each as a gift only for the builders of large models to newly opened stores in Shanghai and Paris. This is a very rare minifigure.”
and
“It was given not only to model builders, but all people in our building, we all participate, from project planners, developers, designers, warehouse, MB to mechanics who install and complete models on those stores. I am also not aware of any other printed torso then the “Shanghai” version. So if there is “Paris” version, id like to see picture 😀 Actual meaning of that celebration is included in that classic yellow brick with double print, “two shops at once”
I will add a picture of the Paris side of the brick. I had not included that in the original post. I was wondering if a Paris variety of this figure also existed as well! However, from my research, it appears that one does not.
EDIT: Here is the Paris side of the brick.
I picked these up from someone close to Lego last week and I was really excited about these. I am told that about 200 of these were made and this is the first that I have seen of them anywhere. I took a picture of the front and the back of these so you could see each one. The girl and the boy are different, the second boy is a duplicate, but I included him to show you the reverse torso. The duplicate is not mine. It belongs to someone else. The person that found these for me. For the second picture, I just flipped them around so you could see the back.
Obviously from the figures, it looks like they were produced at the Kladno factory. I am not sure if this was a special event or what. If anyone know, please send me a message.
Thanks!
