Lego releases Marvel Minifigures Set 2
I paid a visit to my local lego store today and to my delight found that they'd released a brand new set of Marvel Minifigures. This is the second series in the Marvel lineup of minifigures released by Lego in the minifigures product line. But that was not the only thing that was new! Something else stood out. It was the packaging! YES! Lego has moved from a non-biodegradable plastic packaging for the minifigures to a fully carton based one. It is very nice that Lego has made a move towards a greener planet with this step by reducing the plastic in the packaging. It may not look big but imagine all the minifigures collected around the world and all of their plastic packaging in a landfill, unable to break down. Now picture all of that plastic replaced with carton, it will just break down. Now thats BIG! The only downside that collectors may feel is that many collectors, including me, are habituated to feel the packaging for certain parts that help identify specific minifigures. Thi
