Hi everyone :)

I'm new here and as you, fan of this others brands of bricks...

I have some questions for you :

1 - Is there any website or page or something like a catalog with all the minifigures of each brands ? Pogo, Xinh, Decool, Lepin and co...

2 - Who are you favorites sellers ?

I already ordered to Minifigures Wholesale NO.1, 5A Toys Top Service Provider (but missing figures...), T T Toys or Aliexpress Blocks 2.0...

Actually, i'm searching to order a big lepin set modular like the Bank or Parisian Restaurant and lots of new minifigures.

But most of the times, sellers who propose minifigures don't propose big lepin modular set. And those who propose big lepin set, don't propose most of the minifigures...

I would like to enjoy the big set DHL shipping to include the minifigures cause i'm not patient ;) 3 to 4 weeks to arrive here in France... Sooooooo long...

Have you any seller to advice me ? :)

3 - Maximum items in the basket is 99... It's a little bit NOT ENOUGH when you want to order in single sale... Is there a way to pass out this 99 limit ?

4 - I saw somewhere on this forum that someone made a list of all the iron man Mark figures. But can't find it anymore :( if someone have the link. I'll take it and save it this time. Thanks.

Thanks for all.

Greg

1 - This blog kept a good catalog for a while, but since around last summer they've been doing less of it so it's slightly outdated.

I'm sure people in this thread will be happy to help you find a particular figure if you want one, or give advice about the quality of a particular wave. Regarding brands, SY and Decool traditionally are the best, Xinh has gotten very good (on par with official at times) though their earlier ones (around Age of Ultron and before) were not as good. Pogo has also gotten fairly good lately, though their earlier figures weren't. LEPIN are good at sets, but be warned, their minifigures are terrible.

2 - I don't tend to have favourite sellers, but in my experience anything going wrong with an order is fairly rare. Either way the site is pretty good at stepping in and getting you your money back if something does go wrong. I'm unable to check for a seller for your problem of lepin v minifigs as Ali is currently crashing my browser and I've not figured out how to fix it.

3 - I'd recommend not putting in any really big orders or with one particular seller, just in case something goes wrong. It's rare for it to happen in my experience but better safe than sorry.

My Big Figs came in today.... Here is my current collection (new ones in the front row):

Nice, those look pretty awesome. Hopefully we'll get a chance to get them without needing to get the full set. If you don't mind my asking, how did you make that infinity gauntlet? Is it entirely custom or did you just tweak an already-existing piece?

Thanks. It's a MOC piece. Sculpted over the original hand. A clearer shot here:

Thanks for the info. I'd certainly try one myself but I'm still not convinced I have the artistic ability to apply a decal, so I'm not sure I'd manage sculpting out a hand.

Nice figures. I've tried decalling a couple of figures (Jay Garrick, for instance) but the decals have a tendency to feel slightly sticky after they're applied. Any advice to fix that?

I've been printing mine on standard waterslide inkjet paper. Would you recommend vinyl ones over that?

I haven't used waterslide on lego but after reading around i settled on vinyl to try first, and am pretty happy with the results so far.

Downside is the slight white edge to the sticker.

Fair enough. Granted I likely didn't read around as much but this is the first time I've come across anything other than waterslide decals. There's a similar issue with white waterslide ones, but I'd guess waterslide decals are thinner than vinyl. If you don't mind, I have a couple of questions regarding vinyl stickers.

Firstly, have you tried using transparent vinyl decals and how do they work out? How dark a surface can you use them on before the designs start to become harder to see?

Secondly, do you use any kinds of ink sealant or varnish after printing/applying to your figures, or is it as simple as printing and sticking?

Thirdly, how do they look/feel? Those pictures are helpful but even with my current setup they can look fairly out of place at times. And do they feel like good figures?

And finally, how durable are the stickers? I'm not planning to leave them out in the rain or anything, but do they hold up fairly well and can they be peeled off?

And if anyone else in this thread can give a very brief summary of waterslide decals vs vinyl stickers that'd be lovely.

You can clear coat decals with Acrylic or Lacquer clear-coat paints, then sand it down to get a smooth finish that feels like normal plastic. You can also use a solution called micro sol to dissolve the decal leaving just the printed parts behind, none of the gluey residue.

(not Lego) but look how the decals turned out on this Tyrrell F1 model I made, http://i.imgur.com/dmcsKuc.png They look part of the plastic! first I used the Micro sol solution, then clearcoated them with Zeropaints 1k High Quality Clearcoat Lacquer

The quality of Xinh/Decool/SY/Senbo/DLP is usually pretty good, but in bootlegs your luck is important!

That's very helpful, thanks. So in terms of application, what would you recommend? The method I've been following is essentially printing the decals, giving them 3 coats of inkjet sealant varnish, then sticking them in water, sliding them off their backing and onto the figure. Would you suggest applying micro sol after application (and drying) or should a decent application process be a little more complicated than that? Thanks for you help by the way.

As far as I know there's no way to get in contact with them. Or if there is, I'm fairly sure they don't do requests.

I know that a lot of us on here are trying to keep tabs on what figures are out there and what they based on. It's all a bit overwhelming to keep on top of, with the current rate of releases. I can't keep my website up to date or afford to buy enough figures.

I've created a Google Sheet, which I'm going to throw open to anyone here to edit (just PM me). It's public to view so please take a look. I' hoping to keep tabs on bootlegs, custom and genuine figures. I've done Pogo and a whole bunch of Onlinesailin figures so far. Next Xinh, SY and Decool as I have all the basic data sorted for those.

Please take a look and let me know if you have any feedback on what info I should be including.

Nice work!!!

Does anyone have a list of the different bootleg Hellicarriers that are out? I want to pick one up, just not sure which one.

This may not be a complete list, but the ones I could find were:

LEPIN 07043

SY911

Sembo 911

I think Decool also did one but I'm having trouble finding it.

Couple of things to note here:

- LEPIN's minifigures are usually awful. I don't know for certain whether this is the case for the helicarrier, but I see no reason why they shouldn't.

- The SY helicarrier is actually slightly larger than the official one, and comes with more pieces as a result. It still looks a fair bit like the normal herlicarrier though.

- The Sembo one (I think it's a subdivision of SY) has been modified slightly (mostly stickers/labels) and comes with Captain China and his crew as minifigures instead of the ones which come with the official set.

Thanks! Not seeing the Sembo one a lot on Ali, it appears to be the most expensive too.
