Bootleg Super Heroes minifigs - worth it or not?

[mooproxy]

Morning guys - does anyone know which set Thor came in with his helmet?

SY266 did at least.

Cheers guys!!

I did have a spare one of those around somewhere. I'll see if I can find it for you.

(the helmet that is... if you're after the whole set then... )

Got that dlp cap set and printing is fantastic.

Also got today the pogo spiderman and stan lee set. If anyone wants a photo, just tell me

The white uniform cap even has the side holster printing on the legs that both sy and xinh have missed off with their attempts. My hydra cap had a few white marks on tho that i had to fill in :(

[craggy]

got a deadpool as an add-on to an amazon order at the weekend, because I had a gift card expiring and wanted to make the most of it. for a few quid it is ok. I'd go so far as to say good quality, but not quite the same as proper Lego.

Can someone post some good close ups of the DLP Cap range then if they have them.

Normal lighting not the odd flourescent rubbish they use for promo shots. Ta.

That'd be awesome if you did? I'd literally be getting it for the helmet alone as I'm not interested in the figs it comes with. If you do let me know what you want for it + P&P and I can PayPal it over.

So Beast Boy from SY's Jokerland set won't have a proper mold for his hair/ear piece. Gonna have to buy the POGO version after all just for that piece and painted legs.

Thanks for those. Print looks good but some of the design and artwork just looks a little off to me especially considering they're copying existing designs for all but one of them.

I might pick them up just for a couple of the elements such as the masked head of the Hydra Cap and his printed arms. I might also use the Christo Cap to update a second version of that I have with the better arm and leg printing.

It's the Bucky Cap that doesn't look that good to me. The pouches don't look right on it and the head is a little too simplistic. Might see if a regular Lego dark blue Cap head would work better on it for the detail.

Honestly... If DLP let me design a wave for them and they got the print as good as some of those Spiderman figs they'd be amazing.

Found this morning on AE:

Kind of disappointed I pulled the trigger on this one with out pictures first.

For when Rey goes to the fancy trading post?

Looks like SY are upgrading the Mighty Micros and then made their own Cyborg vs Brainiac.

Wait.. who is Cyborg fighting? Is that Brainiac?

Based on the box image that's what it looks like to me.

I might be missing something, what's the issue with Mr Freeze? He looks like a fairly standard figure. As for Rey, Kopf brand do like putting gold in there. Like they've done a superhero wave with Flash with the old-style cowl which has gold winglets instead of yellow.

Wait.. who is Cyborg fighting? Is that Brainiac?

Yeah, that's brainiac. Here's a bigger pic:

Freeze looks just like hus tlg counterpart. A bit more blue buts most likley the lighting effect

Its super close but the body should be a shade darker than the head: http://minifigpriceguide.com/wordpress/mr-freeze-from-66-lego-batman-batcave-set/

I'm pretty sure the whole TLG Mr freeze is printed on the exact same blue. And it's just an optical illusion provided by the print, that is making it look slightly different. Look at an official picture (one with no strong lighting) and cover the entire middle with your hand, just look at the head and legs, and they seem to be on the same colour plastic.

Although the entire shade of the bootleg looks like it may be the wrong plastic.

Not sure - they look pretty different on my one (second row from bottom - bang middle). Agreed it's not the best close up pic though!

Your display looks wicked :D

and, ah you have the figure, it probably is different on the bootleg then. I think XInh and Pogo both come up short more often than not when it comes to direct clones of real TLG figures.

[Mattyj82]

I have the lego minifigure aswel. Looks the same. Cant tell if the back packs the same.

[Robianco]

It's Bright Light Blue for the head and Medium Blue for the torso and legs.

Trying to sort all my Deathstrokes out and having trouble trying to identify where Decool sourced their design for 0234. Anyone know? There are lots that are similar, but nothing that's obviously a source.

Cheers! There's more on my Flickr if you're interested.

Who here is hoping that Xinh will make another X-men Apocalypse minfig set? I would like Cyclops,Jean Grey,Storm, Mystique in Uniform, Weapon X wolverines, Jubilee, Stryker, and Quicksilver in flight suit. Also I'm waiting for my Suicide Squad minifigures set to arrive. I'm would like Xinh to make another one with: Rick Flag,Amanda Waller, Slipknot, June Moon, Movie Katana, Dr. Harleen Quinzel, and Maybe two SEALS?.I really enjoyed Suicide Squad and I hope to see more minifigures soon
