I bought LEGO Marvel Superheroes for my son. The manager at Gamestop tried to give me a Batman 3 poster. When i asked if I could have one of the minifigures he said that the Emmet figure is for LEGO Movie purchases. Bilbo is for LOTR or Hobbit purchases. Superhero purchases get the batman poster. I grimaced. He gave me both the poster and the Emmet minifigure.

The promotion clearly states that the LEGO minifigures are for "ANY" LEGO purchase. In my opinion not only would I get the minifigure but it would be stackable with others meaning I should get both.

He was nice about it though but its frustrating when either people are well informed or make up their own rules. So I was able to get LEGO Marvel Superheroes Wii U ($10 off select titles) for $30 (plus tax) with a LEGO Emmet purchase.

Are pre-owned LEGO games eligible for a LEGO minifigure? According to this manager No they are not. That may differ from store to store.

No, only new games were included. I completely forgot about this.

I think it just varied depending on what store you went to. I bought a used Star Wars game for the Wii for $10 and got a Bilbo. I had to remind the guy at the check out about the Bilbo, but he didn't give me any problems. I know (via other LEGO websites/ forums) a lot of people had a similar experience to mine.

I got a used LEGO Harry Potter game and the awesome clerk hooked me up with 4 figures for my kids. She also threw in some Batman and Ninjago posters and a handful of Chima Online cards. I'll never use the cards but it was the thought that counts.
Why do we drive on a parkway and park on a driveway?

I'm thinking maybe I should have went late in the evening. I went very early in the morning. I bet early in the day he was being extra cautious with the minifigures so that he wouldn't run out too quickly. Later in the day I think they would have been a little more relaxed about them. I really wanted to buy a pre-owned LEGO Harry Potter game but I chose to by the more expensive game to get the minifigure.

I'm glad they were so easy going with you in regards to the minifigures for your kids. Thats awesome!

I did go late in the evening and one store was completely out of figures. The next one I went to had a bunch left over. I asked what they were going to do with the rest and they said they weren't sure yet.
