Hi,
I could not find anything on the topic :/
Could anyone explain please why are leaflets (instructions) for each minifigure
of the series kept separately in the catalog when they seems to be all the same?

It seems especially weird, when I saw that someone bought leaflet for percival
graves for such high price:
https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?I=colhp-22#T=P
while it seems that this leaflet is just pretty the same as all the rest of the
leaflets from this series....

Thx in advance,
J.

It is due to the fact that each collectible minifigure is treated as a separate
set in the BrickLink catalog. Since each set entry in the BrickLink catalog automatically
has an instructions entry added to it on creation, each collectible minifigure
set gets an instructions entry added to it on creation. It would be wrong to
say that each one of these sets does not have instructions included with it,
since each collectible minifigure does indeed come with the leaflet. Therefore,
each collectible minifigure set gets the leaflet as its instructions.

Cheers,
Randy

Thanks Randy, makes sense.

And I would a little bit modify my question then.
Anyone noticed that especially for HP collectables are there some differences
?
From what I found it seems all those HP leaflets are just the same.
But I might overlooked something, so I am curious whether anyone could confirm
they are just the same ?

Thx,
J.

Hi jerzeeg,

Each collectable minifigure leaflet has an unique number. On the backside of
the leaflet at one of the corners there is a small red or black circle with a
white dot inside containing the number of that particular collectable minifigure.

Note: The unique numbering of the minifigs in the catalog is not the same
as the unique leaflet numbering.

Example: catalog set number col12-2 (Hun-Warrior) has number 8 on leaflet.

Hi Yutani,

thank you for the answer! Anyway it seems it does not apply everytime. In example
for HP there is unluckily nothing like that :/
Leaflets from different bags have all the same number in both the top-right corner
(as on screenshot) or the bottom left corner.
Please see the screenshots:
