"Series 2 of the Marvel Studios CMF line delivers some of the finest minifigure detailing LEGO has produced, anchored by an exceptional Moon Knight and strong X-Men '97 trio, but the shift to sealed cardboard boxes generated significant backlash and explains the stark split between expert scores (74.1 BrickScore) and the LEGO.com owner rating of just 2.41 stars."
The Marvel Studios Collectable Minifigures Series 2 (71039) earns a Recommended BrickScore of 74.1, backed by consistently positive expert assessments of the figures' quality while tempered by pointed criticism of the blind-box format. The critical split is significant: Amazon buyers rate it 4.2 out of 5 across over 3,200 ratings, but LEGO.com buyers land at just 2.41 out of 251 ratings, with only 36% saying they would recommend it. The expert reviewers praised the figures themselves highly, but the transition from feelable blind bags to sealed cardboard boxes drew sustained criticism as an anti-consumer change that eliminates any ability to identify contents before purchase.
Where they split: The sharpest divergence is between the figure quality and the packaging format. Expert reviewers (Brickset 85, The Brothers Brick 78, Rebrickable 75) praised the series as matching or exceeding Series 1 quality. But LEGO.com owner ratings split dramatically: Amazon buyers who presumably already knew what they wanted rate it 4.2, while LEGO.com buyers who may have purchased blind rate it only 2.41, with 64% unwilling to recommend. The cardboard box change is the near-universal driver of negative owner reviews, not the figures themselves.

The minifigures themselves are well-received, but the Series 2 Collectible Minifigures set is dominated by intense frustration over the switch from feelable blind bags to opaque boxes, with most negative reviews citing duplicate figures, inability to identify contents, and ruined collecting experience.
