Packets of mini lego which you build things - not just mini figures

[GetMe]

DS got a free one with something in Smiths a while ago which was a packet which had a speed boat and a robber with boat which you built with figures.

He absolutely loves it and I'd love to get a couple for his stocking but I can't find anywhere you can buy these. Are they just freebies?

I have found the mini figures on Amazon but really want the ones which have a vehicle or something you can build in it.

They tend to be freebies although people will sell them on on ebay.
What about Lego Mixels? DS3 loves those.

They came free with the sun/daily mail I think. They are polybags and you can buy them online:

However, they are quite expensive for what they are. You can get little sets (boxes) of lego for about £4-5 so it might be worth looking at them as well

Oh and i second mixels, DS(4) loves these!

There's a few on the Lego site: shop.lego.com/en-GB/Christmas

Oh wow, thank you all so much. It's so strange I searched and search on Amazon and couldn't find anything. I also had no idea about mixels they look great.

Thank you!!

They do the packs when you collect the tokens from the daily mail. They do publicise it, so keep an eye out. I think it's normally twice a year.

I have been collecting the packs since ds was born and have about 30. He's nearly 5, so we are going to give them to him for Christmas.

Mixels are cool but they are quite fiddly. DS (4 and good at lego) got one in is advent calendar yesterday and DH had to help him build it.
