unclejeffie Posted July 29, 2014 Posted July 29, 2014 I'm wondering how you can part out the 3th party minifigurs compared to the original lego-minifigures? Do they weigh less or something like that? Never had one in my hands
itMFtis Posted July 29, 2014 Posted July 29, 2014 (edited) Depends on the company. Decool figs, for instance, have sharper shoulders and a different connection type between the upper torso and waist. Sheng Yuan seem to have rounder arms with different pegs. Sometimes there are color or detail differences (not necessarily better or worse depending on your preference).

Brickmamba Posted July 29, 2014 Posted July 29, 2014 nice collection dirk I'm wondering how you can part out the 3th party minifigurs compared to the original lego-minifigures? Do they weigh less or something like that? Never had one in my hands There are some subtle differences which people have explained in previous posts In regards to weight I find the decool figures are a little lighter and 'thin' compared to TLC, SY is probably more accurate in feel and weight, more 'solid' in comparision and the legs have the same studs as opposed to decool that have thin pegs that slide into the body.
agoodfella77 Posted July 30, 2014 Posted July 30, 2014 I'm wondering how you can part out the 3th party minifigurs compared to the original lego-minifigures? Do they weigh less or something like that? Never had one in my hands When you start mixing and matching LEGO parts with Decool / SY parts, that's when you will really appreciate the precision and quality of LEGO parts (IMO). Every LEGO part fits seamlessly with one another (as everyone well knows) -- but 3rd party parts are really hit or miss -- sometimes they are loose, sometimes its a really tight fit. Hands and arms are the worst IMO, in the sense that there is the smallest margin for error there and they don't really fit that great many times.
The Joker1 Posted July 30, 2014 Posted July 30, 2014 (edited) 7 Decool figures arrived at my door today, with another 12 on the way. I will be doing a Trademark Joker review of them compared to some officials, With full close ups, quality checks and feedback. Should help settle a few peoples minds.

agoodfella77 Posted August 1, 2014 Posted August 1, 2014 Pictures of the new Decool Iron Men are out (not the greatest picture, but it will have to do for now)
agoodfella77 Posted August 1, 2014 Posted August 1, 2014 Mark I looks awesome I'm curious to see how that one turns out. I love the mask -- but I am still partial to my own Mark I build. Perhaps I might mix / match some parts into my build. At any rate, it gives us all a bunch of options which I absolutely love.
Kire Posted August 1, 2014 Posted August 1, 2014 Eh seems just like a re release of some of Sheng Yuans release and decools previous releases. That Mark 1, I will surely be searching for and hopefully this will release soon enough so we can finally get the Punisher wave in September or late August
LMB10 Posted August 1, 2014 Posted August 1, 2014 Only going to get two if possible, the gold armour and the Mark 1.
wickedlemon Posted August 1, 2014 Posted August 1, 2014 Nice find. Nowhere advertising them for sale yet though.
robuko Posted August 1, 2014 Posted August 1, 2014 I hope the re releases mean they have fixed the mask moulding and printing. It really sucked on the previous series, which is a pity. The Decool gold colour is much closer to lego than the SY yellowish gold is, but SY has much better quality moulding and printing accuracy on the masks.
agoodfella77 Posted August 1, 2014 Posted August 1, 2014 (edited) Nice find. Nowhere advertising them for sale yet though. Yeah, don't tell my supplier! :) btw, nice website -- bookmarked! I hope the re releases mean they have fixed the mask moulding and printing. It really sucked on the previous series, which is a pity. The Decool gold colour is much closer to lego than the SY yellowish gold is, but SY has much better quality moulding and printing accuracy on the masks. This is exactly why I am getting the whole set. I'm going to cherry pick the best parts even if they are dupes -- in fact precisely because of it. Edited August 1, 2014 by agoodfella
itMFtis Posted August 1, 2014 Posted August 1, 2014 Eh, only interested in Red Snapper. Pretty full up on IM as it is.
Brickmamba Posted August 2, 2014 Posted August 2, 2014 Can see some sellers on eBay with this set, only interested in mark1 but prefer to wait for SY version. Taking a closer look at red snapper just looks like hes holding onto 2 guns with normal arms, can anyone confirm?
dirk Posted August 3, 2014 Posted August 3, 2014 What happens when Nick Fury leaves the keys in his hover car? http://lotsoflegos.blogspot.ca/2014/08/sheng-yuen-assorted-superheroes.html
Robianco Posted August 3, 2014 Posted August 3, 2014 Can see some sellers on eBay with this set, only interested in mark1 but prefer to wait for SY version. Taking a closer look at red snapper just looks like hes holding onto 2 guns with normal arms, can anyone confirm? Any links to these new Iron Man sets?
Brickmamba Posted August 3, 2014 Posted August 3, 2014 Try searching 'iron man building' on eBay you will see the auctions of the 9 boxes same as the pic above, around $15 BIN
Robianco Posted August 3, 2014 Posted August 3, 2014 Just found it. With shipping to the UK that's working out at £13 which is way too much for them. I'll hang fire until the regular sellers get them and the price comes down.
wickedlemon Posted August 3, 2014 Posted August 3, 2014 New Iron Man wave is £7.22 on Aliexpress without boxes.
