A number of people have shown interest and things have been a little quiet around here so I'm starting the thread for the 5th Minifig Jambalaya. Some of the text below is cut and pasted from the previous jambalaya. Also if you would like to be the 'starter' please indicate below and a suitable candidate will be agreed upon.
The starter will create 5 minifigures:
- "custom" fig - a minifig of your own invention with accessories.
- "fleshie" fig - this is a custom fig with fleshie hands and head, for those who prefer that sort of thing.
- "custom/CMF" fig - this can be either a custom fig, or a castle-related CMF with accessories.
- "premium custom" fig - this guy should be over-the-top awesome, including several accessories and a cape.
- "stock" fig - this is for those who want to trade out a stock fig or for those who don't have much more than that to trade.
Each fig with accessories comes in an individual bag. You may only select TWO out of the four custom figs to trade out ("stock" fig does not count toward this total). You must swap out an ENTIRE FIG at a time. No picking and choosing parts from several figs.
Try to replace your selections with figs that are of equal or greater value. Do your best to be fair with your trades.
There is also a small bag of weapons/food/accessories. You must put back one more than you take. For example, if you take 3 items, you must contribute 4 items and try not to fill it up with standard swords and spears... This will slowly add variety to the bag for future participants to choose from
Figs should be mostly "purist", with minimal use of 3rd party items (brickforge, brickwarriors etc).
Contributions to the accessories bag may be official or 3rd party items.
Everyone will post a picture of their "takes" and their "gives". This will keep the excitement going as people look forward to seeing what everyone is contributing, and whether their favorite fig will make it to them, or get snatched up by someone else!
Sign up below! Please indicate if what country you live in so we can plan the package route accordingly.
We will start once 8 people have signed up. People can continue to sign up after the first 8 spots are filled and they will be added to the list while the package is in transit among the first 8 participants.
I will limit for the time being participation to 15 people. If there is a great level of interest - and the package is moving swiftly I may be inclined to increase the number of participants.
Please plan for your figs ahead of time. Also if you have upcoming travel or lack of availability let me know - we can move the schedule around just to make sure that the package does not get stuck.
Participants:
Must be in good standing with feedback on MB. If you are new to MB (participant for less then 2 months) with little or no trade feedback then applicants will be taken on a case by case basis.

Get it started.... set order.... get contact information and confirmation (at one point I got phone numbers from certain folks - just in case). Once things start rolling interest grows, people want to join in on the fun and so on..... you wait too long, interest dwindles away and things fizzle out....
