Imaginext PILOT (AMELIA EARHART)!

Imaginext Blind Bag Series 6 - Pilot (Amelia Earhart) - Fisher-Price/Mattel 2015

These Imaginext figures just keep rolling out. The Series 6 blind bags appeared in stores without any preamble last month and sent collectors into a tizzy. Unfortunately for several weeks the only place they were showing up was Fred Meyer stores in Washington and Alaska. Luckily they've seemed to appear everywhere now. I finally found mine in Target last week. The character selection in this line thrills me. Just a few short years ago I was very frustrated with the selection of Imaginext females, but now I'm confident that we will see many more awesome ladies in the coming years. I would like to see a Statue of Liberty, a Cleopatra, a Rosie the Riveter, and a Dragon Lady - of course the blind bags figures never have names, so we're left with simple descriptors to identify them. I'm pretty sure we'll actually see them all eventually though. This pilot figure was an unexpected but welcome addition to the already diverse lineup. I'm really excited for what the future will bring. Let's check out Amelia Earhart below!


















The pilot comes with a bomber jacket and a propeller. 



















Time for some Group and Comparison Pics!


Here she is with a bunch of the recent Imaginext ladies.

And here she is with the rest of the Series 6 lineup.  I love that gnome!




Cheers!

    1. All my Targets have been stocked since last Tuesday. They'll find their way to your neck of the woods soon.

  2. What a great figure! Hate the idea behind blind bags, but she was always a hero of mine so I might have to hunt these down!

    1. Luckily Imaginext are one of those lines with a pretty clear code system. Look for these numbers stamped on the rear top of the bags:
      00 - Godzilla
      02 - Aviatrix
      04 - Gnome
      05 - Alien
      06 - Chicken Suit Guy
      99 - Jester
