  Needless to say I was wiped out last night after melting in the sun all day.  It was a great day, but the bad news is that I didn't see any more of this magnet or keychain anywhere.  And I stopped everywhere, so I'd be shocked to know I missed it. 

  Looking at this further, I'm not sure how anyone has any of these legs that aren't either modified or messed up.  BL says they've only appeared on this girl on the magnet and keychain sets.  I know there are ways to remove figs from both, but not without heating them and accepting some of what that produces.  So if you are successful at finding them, I would really like to know what they look like.  Good luck!

  The magnets are not glued.

  Hi! That was sweet of you to look all over LLFL for me! Yup, sad I missed those little buggers when I did see them. Should have grabbed a few just because they were rare. There was a BL seller with 7 pairs of the legs for $7.50 each, but that was too much to pay, and they are gone now anyway. Guess I will hold my breath until they introduce another less rare fig with those magenta legs. 
  
  And CCC, you were correct about the magnet not being glued. Wish they would totally quit glueing magnets...what a pain in the arse.
  
  So is anyone else has some they would like to trade or sell, I am still game. (Need some magenta egs for a monochrome minifig.) Magenta is one of my favorite colors, too!

  I think I have an extra of this keychain. Will have to check when I get home.

  @ccc No kidding?  Did not realize that.  Thought all magnets were glued. 

  @legogal No problem, just added it to the list of stuff to look for and buy.  I'm glad it looks like someone's found one for you.  But FYI - the new Goblin fig from #70657 has magenta legs, but would require a fair bit of wiping:

  Unfortunately, the Green Goblin from #76057 has two-tone overmolded legs, with the legs being green plastic with magenta boots (part 970c36pb05). No amount of rubbing will change that!

  Wow, I obviously don't know what I'm talking about on this.  Thanks @alldarker for clarifying.

  Yup, these new leg assemblies with two colors of plastic are a real problem if you need just one of the colors. It is even worse with short legs in bright pink, etc., which do not exist in the plain version. Aargh!

  The prices of magenta leg assemblies keep rising, and yup, I still need several as well as some legs/tails for the poc020 and 030 mermaids in sand blue and sand green. If you need torsos for either, maybe we can trade. (I am praying daily  that TLG will release another figure with the magenta leg assembly.)
