LEGO Minifigures Series 10 (item number 71001) was released in May 2013 and is notable for its inclusion of the ultra-rare Mr. Gold minifigure, a limited-edition character of which only 5,000 were distributed worldwide. The original retail price per blind bag was $2.99.

Collectibility
Series 10 is a retired product line, and sets are no longer available in standard retail stores. Due to the limited production of Mr. Gold and the overall popularity of the series, figures like the Bumblebee Girl, Medusa, Roman Commander, and the extremely valuable Mr. Gold are highly sought after by collectors on secondary markets.
