Greetings,

I have a found a rather interesting site that appears to be located in Taiwan, and ships out a large variety of custom Minifigure parts. I have not seen these parts elsewhere, and I was wondering if anyone could verify if they are reliable/trustworthy before I do business with them. Any information is appreciated.

Here is the link to the site.

http://www.minifigcat.com/shop/

The website seems a bit unprofessional but there appears to be a BrickLink shop with the same items as well. The feedback is pretty good. 1479 positive, 5 neutral and 0 negative.

Took the words right out of my mouth. :thumbup:

Their site isn't necessarily slick but I wouldn't call it unprofessional. Their shop at least isn't all that different than others (e.g. www.brickforge.com)... It's categorized and pretty straight forward to use. And yes, I've ordered from them in the past. The only real issue I had, which wasn't really an issue, is that it took awhile for the package to arrive because of international shipping and customs... and I had to pick it up from the post office. Other than that, no complaints. The pieces are good quality and very reasonably priced.

Note: There are other sites out there that carry some (not all) of these like Firestar Toys and La Petite Brique. Just do a Google search for Si-Dan Toys.

Most of the other stores that carry these items seem more expensive, to say the least. From what I can tell this seems to be the closest thing to an official website for Si-Dan.

They're reliable and trustworthy. I've bought quite a number of things from them. Can't say I've had to return things or deal with customer service, as everything I've ordered has been correct. It does take a little while longer to ship b/c it can get delayed in customs.

If your curious, I've bought from MinifigCat, BrickWarriors, BrickForge, AreaLight, CloneArmyCustoms, BrickArms ... 3rd party retailers that carry these brands ... Amazing Armory on BrickLink. I've also found some stuff on Shapeways, but never used them before.

I've also bought from them in the past, the parts are fine - similar quality to brickforge and brick warriors. Firestar are predominantly resellers of custom parts, so of course they charge significantly more than the originators.
