WHY?????????????

Enough with Age of Ultron. Enough with different colored Hulks. And ENOUGH WITH TRANSPARENT.

Couldn't agree more. I mean its not like there are other things they promised which we're waiting on or anything.

The SY Jurassic World Set arrived today, very impressive - The print on the torso's is top notch, only thing for me is Owen's face isn't great, a little squished and thickly printed - however that is easily rectified.

The most exciting part for me, is the Dr - I've just popped a blank light flesh head on him, applied one of my face decals and (once the hair piece arrives in a Bricklink order) voila a perfect Banner - better than buying up that ridiculous mech!

As for the other figures, the soldiers are quite good, and the older kid has been repurposed into Ron Weasley(!) - not sure what to do with the owner of JW (Sorry can't remember any of their names) - the print again on the him is superb, just not sure if I have any use for him from a custom point of view - though his hair is useful. The worse figure? Easily the little kid. Awful.

The mini dinosaur builds was a fun idea too, of no use whatsoever, but kept my kids busy for a little while.

Wow that R2D2 is the worst bootleg i think ive ever seen

It's actually a half-way decent quality bootleg of the 'Snowman Astromech' Ithink, was in one of the calendars? My memory's vague. Ididn't buy it myself.

Dr. Henry Wu is the doctor, and I thought of that myself when I saw him. Lots of customization possibilities. The owner is Dr. Simon Masrani. The current Ron used to be Zach Mitchell, and the kid was Gray Mitchell. What came out wrong with him, anyhow?

I'd love to see these customs when they're all done!

Agree! Agree! and Agree!

That transparant Venom can come in handy as Stealth Venom though.

The one good exception for me has been trans Vision which has come in handy for me :)

Is it just me or is there a huge lull in the figures that are getting released? After everyone putting out their AOU figs... then SY fixing their shoulder issues and going double sided on the heads they pretty much destroyed everyone else in the AOU stakes it's all gone very quiet.

The Mechs just seem like a hangover from the AOU stuff and the only new figure is Banner. Dargo are historically pretty iffy and don't seem to be putting out any of the stuff from that poster... the transparent figures are an odd thing that they just seem to be fixated on.

Decool have just about finished the waves shown on their last leaflet. I'm thinking that the DC wave with Deathstroke etc are relatively close as well as the SDCC figs. I'm just hoping we get something new and unreleased.

Great minds mate. I was just about to post something to this effect. For Dargo, the window of opportunity to release some of those figs everyone was raving over would be now with no other competition in the market now... makes me wonder if they've hit some kind of production snag?

It must have been nearly a 2 month wait between the time that I first saw pics of Dargo's Iron Man set, and the time that they were actually released. Hopefully this doesn't become Dargo's standard wait time for new stuff. In the mean time they're just give other brands the opportunity to swoop in an beat them to it. I think they were one of the first brands to release Ant Man knockoff pics, and we've already had a few brands release those. SY has already released the new Spider-Man minifigs, and Xinh managed to release Heatwave before them.

I have transparent minifigs as much as the next guy, but maybe it won't be so bad for blue Bulk, since it's based off the time he got the powers of Captain Universe.

Hey guys, I am very glad to see many fans here and wish u all have a great time!! So far I have get like a million requests about what figures we should make, well thanks you all for the great sharing!

On the other hand, Please let me explain how we make new designs: at the very beginning of each year, we will make a plan about what series to make on every month. For every figure, it takes 1week to discuss the possibility to make and the time to jump into our production line, 2 weeks for design, 3-4weeks to open mould, 1 week to try the mould, another 2 weeks to finish production and packing, and I guess 1 more month on the shipment or distribution... Those are the estimated time assuming everything goes smoothly...

Moreover, to us, as a manufacturer, 1000export cartons is the moq for every production. So Before launching, we should do extremely marketing research on every idea or design on every country to ensure that we do not have too much storage.

So guys, please believe me that we take very series consideration on every suggestion, give us some patience and understanding on this time matter and please keep posting ur sharing on this page for us to consider!!!

Thanks again to all of you, have fun and cheers!!

For those curious about how these are made and the length of time concern etc

Where did you find this? Is this really from SY?

Why the green though..

It's an odd choice indeed. The Black / Yellow on the upper far right looks interesting (could be decent for a MOC Yellowjacket).

I wish they would have done a proper MCU WASP though...

i wish SY would just go through the roster for Lego Marvel Superheroes and Lego Batman 3 and just systematically make them all

Yeah I agree but, we can only hope :/

We all want that I'm sure, but I doubt it's going to happen.
