"Series 24 earns its Highly Recommended BrickScore of 80.7 from expert reviewers who called it one of the strongest CMF series in years, but buyers' ratings (3.83 out of 5 from 791 owners) reflect the blind-bag lottery frustration that dogs all CMF releases; the figures themselves are excellent, the format is the sticking point."
Series 24 landed as one of the strongest Collectable Minifigures series in years, with expert reviewers from Brickset, Rebrickable, and Jay's Brick Blog all praising the extraordinary variety and individual quality of eleven of the twelve figures. The series earns a BrickScore of 80.7 and a Highly Recommended tier, driven by standout nostalgic homages (the Brown Astronaut, Falconer, and Orc), multiple new molds, and diverse character representation. Owner ratings tell a more cautious story: a 3.83 average across 791 reviews, a value-for-money signal of 2.8 out of 5, and only 49% would-recommend on LEGO.com, reflecting frustration with the blind-bag format and duplicates rather than the figures themselves. Critics loved the lineup; buyers' scores skew lower due to the inherent randomness of blind packaging.
Where they split: Critics and owners diverge noticeably. Expert reviewers from Brickset, Rebrickable, and Jay's Brick Blog rate Series 24 among the best CMF series ever produced. Owner ratings of 3.83 out of 5 and a 49% would-recommend rate tell a different story, which reviewers attribute almost entirely to the blind-bag purchasing experience rather than the figures themselves.

"LEGO knows its audience, that's for sure. There's no reason for this figure to exist except to help pad out all of our ever-growing rainbow of Classic Space figures, and I'm not mad about that."

Series 24 minifigures are praised as one of the best series in recent memory for character variety and detail, but the blind-bag online ordering experience is widely criticized for delivering heavy duplicates rather than random assortments, making in-store purchase the strongly recommended path.
