LEGO Kumail Nanjiani Ninjago


The mission seemed impossible.  Sort of like finding a needle in a haystack.  How do you find a single blind bag LEGO mini figure, when: 1) Said figure is in tiny pieces that must be assembled 2) There are 20 different figures in the set ?  If you only are looking for one of the figures, you've got to feel the blind bag for a costume piece or accessory.  Luckily for me, Jay from the LEGO Ninjago Movie has a scarf and a Selfie Stick.  I had previously hunted for Jay at a Wal-Mart with no luck.  I found success at a Toys R Us.  Toys R Us had possibly hundreds of bags, and fortunately I was able to find Jay early on.

I have yet to see the LEGO Ninjago Movie (I enjoyed the first LEGO Movie and the LEGO Batman Movie).  I had never even heard of LEGO Ninjago before the movie was being launched.  I had to get Jay because I am a big fan of comedian Kumail Nanjiani.  I first discovered him when friends introduced me to the TV series Portlandia (a sketch with Kumail selling a cell phone plan had us in stitches).  I later discovered Kumail's stand up and his shows like Silicon Valley and The Indoor Kids, and movies like The Big Sick.

As I have learned from his stand up, Kumail is a big fan of theme parks.  Ironically, LEGO Jay's Selfie Stick would not be welcome at some amusement parks.  Hopefully they are allowed at LEGOLAND.

  1. Dan, that's so cool you figured out a way to beat the system, sorta. "Feel the blind bag for a costume piece or accessory." Everything is Awesome! Great post as usual.

  2. Thanks, Snow White Archive! In the case of the LEGO blind bags, the package doesn't even picture or list what you can get! I had to rely on Google images. I have discovered that some (non-LEGO) blind bag items have special codes printed on the bag. And then I've noticed lots of opened blind bag items at stores! The shame of it all!
