Hi there. Is there any way of knowing who is inside? Like a reference number or barcode? I'm after Stone Cold Steve Austin. I know the Mighty Mini blind bags did!
Thanks!

No. No way of knowing. Fortunately. There wasn't any high ratio rare ones in either series, so it should be fairly easy to grab any off eBay.
Only harder ones to find were the exclusives. Duggan, Macho Man, and Piper were Wal-Mart exclusives in series one. Razor, Slaughter, and Jake The Snake were Target exclusives with series two. Even those aren't terribly hard to do find in eBay.
All others, Austin included, were 1/12 So easy to obtain when they were around. Biggest hurdle you'd have now is the fact that Austin is still super popular and not a large amount of folks looking to part with him. Even still, you're only talking $15 or so on eBay if you can't any in stores (Which would probably be in clearance if any left given that series two was almost two years ago already).

Not that I remember, i believe they all have the same barcode number. I know some fans had put up a layout online of where each figure sits in the entire box set, but if you find the box set and figures have already been purchased and the remaining boxes are jumbled, there would be no way to tell. Your best bet would probably be eBay.

Theres a shop near me has them for 99p Not alot of money at all but don't want to be tempted to get them all so was gonna just grab Austin!

Thanks for the reply man. Might grab a few in the hope I get Austin. A shop near me has them for 99p

I just bought a fresh box from them a while back and got one of everyone. I think £12 for 12 (well 11 because that Nash is ing awful) mini figures is a great price.

remembering I have a full set of series 1 of these. may need to dig them out for new desk toys at work. I got them at buy 1 get 1 free when they were new, and bought a fresh case off the floor at my work at the time. I think with discounts it came to about $60 for the set. I'd love a set for $12.

Just get a high quality permanent marker and color in his legs. I used a sharpie on my Nash as soon as I got him way back with they first came out. Worked like a charm. Hasn't discolored the rest of him or made it gross and sticky like some people try to tell you it will. He looks a million times better with the legs colored.

I got Razor by finding a fresh box at Target and using a layout guide. Method doesn't work if people look at them or rearrange them (missed Goldust using same method another time), but if it looks untouched, it's worth a shot!
