The Brickmaster Posted April 26, 2016 Posted April 26, 2016 well, it finally arrived 2 months after i ordered it ....poe's x-wing. with no manual. so i'm guessing this one must be by Lele, not Lepin. Looks like the sticker sheet is all mangled too. anyone else get the Lele x-wing? how was the build? Could you show the helmet? I've heard that Lepin has diffrent helmet than Lego.
mooproxy Posted April 26, 2016 Posted April 26, 2016 (edited) So my LEPIN BvS batmobile set arrived. Figures are crap, but the rest is more or less solid. A couple of dodgy pieces here and there, but short of the kryptonite domes not fitting properly, nothing I can't live with. If people want pics of anything, let me know. To clarify, the issues are: 1 missing piece - nothing that affects it functionally. No "glass" in the windscreen pieces Elastic Band for the forklift is weak Domes for kryptonite don't fit Minifigs are crap The flick-fire missiles are barely held in at all. They fall out if the truck leans forward. Other than that, it's perfect. Edited April 26, 2016 by mooproxy

Windshield pieces.
unforgiven1980 Posted April 26, 2016 Posted April 26, 2016 well, it finally arrived 2 months after i ordered it ....poe's x-wing. with no manual. so i'm guessing this one must be by Lele, not Lepin. Looks like the sticker sheet is all mangled too. anyone else get the Lele x-wing? how was the build? I got the Lele, too. When you look at the helmets, the Lele ones got a see through visor. The Lepin ones are only painted. In the end, i got 4 missing pieces for the X-Wing guns.
mooproxy Posted April 26, 2016 Posted April 26, 2016 (edited) I would like to see figs and... Windshield pieces. Sure thing, here you go. Here are the figs, as you can see they used the wrong batman cowl, and his cape is only black on one side. The picture I think makes the henchmen look better than they actually are - their body prints are really faded and slightly scratched and look half done. I'm going to scrap the figures for parts and use the XINH ones for display. Here's the windshield. As far as I can tell it's identical to lego, just the clear "glass" pieces aren't there.

I hope mine will be correct set with everyything ok.
mooproxy Posted April 26, 2016 Posted April 26, 2016 Damn. I hope mine will be correct set with everyything ok. Well LEPIN haven't usually made good figures, and other reviewers of the BvS sets have the same issue with the windscreen, so I'm not sure whether it'll work out. Worst case if you really don't like what comes up you can just get them from SY and/or Decool in future.

briksen Posted April 26, 2016 Posted April 26, 2016 well, it finally arrived 2 months after i ordered it ....poe's x-wing. with no manual. so i'm guessing this one must be by Lele, not Lepin. Looks like the sticker sheet is all mangled too. anyone else get the Lele x-wing? how was the build? received exactly the same stuff, LELE reference is mentioned on the sticker. I've build it with a lego PDF on a tablet. it was cool and clutch is good, there were no missing pieces but spring shooters parts were not glued together and pieces were scratched too... i opened a dispute and i got back 6 or 7€ from the seller for missing manual and damaged pieces. good luck ;)
dirk Posted April 27, 2016 Posted April 27, 2016 (edited) thx for the info unforgiven1980 and briksen! looks like i got the lele set too. here's a pic of the figs and sticker sheet. time for me to download the instructions and start building. Edited April 27, 2016 by dirk

dnodar Posted April 27, 2016 Posted April 27, 2016 (edited) Oh my gosh it worked! Thank you! Also, I think the ski stick goes on one of the SWAT members back to make it looks like some sort of antenna. Aliexpress link please?? I have never seen before!! Edit: SY607. Thanks Edited April 27, 2016 by dnodar
MNW Posted April 27, 2016 Posted April 27, 2016 (edited) I think the part from the sheng yuan falcons swat team that people are saying is a ski pole, or arial is supposed to be an electric baton? like a cattle prod, used to control prisoner riots alongside the shield, helmet etc. Handle, pole, and electrode on the end.

Sebiron Posted April 27, 2016 Posted April 27, 2016 (edited) Cool, needed a good head piece for my Fantastic four She-Hulk. And Civil War Spidey. Hope the print is good quality. Edited April 27, 2016 by Sebiron
mooproxy Posted April 27, 2016 Posted April 27, 2016 (edited) SHE-HULK! Totally buying this set!!! Well we finally have a decent MCU falcon, or at least one that's not just comic falcon with Luke Cage's head. Edited April 27, 2016 by mooproxy

Worst case if you really don't like what comes up you can just get them from SY and/or Decool in future. I will do it anyway. I will just buy 8-pack of Batmans, and I will just swap helmets.
adalric Posted April 27, 2016 Posted April 27, 2016 Well we finally have a decent MCU falcon, or at least one that's not just comic falcon with Luke Cage's head. Agreed, it has been far too long, although since an official one has been produced, I figured we would eventually get bootlegs of all the Civil War minifigs very soon anyway. She Hulk is not included in the Civil War set, and doesn't exist in official form anywhere, so she is the truly surprising one here.
mooproxy Posted April 27, 2016 Posted April 27, 2016 I will do it anyway. I will just buy 8-pack of Batmans, and I will just swap helmets. Yeah, LEPIN is generally good quality. Like I said, besides the few minor complaints, it's a perfect set.

It happens though, I mean old deathstroke and red mask guy still appeared in the BvS wave, despite not having anything going on with them recently.
The Brickmaster Posted April 27, 2016 Posted April 27, 2016 Yeah, LEPIN is generally good quality. Like I said, besides the few minor complaints, it's a perfect set. I honestly can't tell if it's Decool or Sheng Yuan.
adalric Posted April 27, 2016 Posted April 27, 2016 I honestly can't tell if it's Decool or Sheng Yuan. Logo on the base is Duo Le Pin.
The Brickmaster Posted April 27, 2016 Posted April 27, 2016 Logo on the base is Duo Le Pin. So it's lepin?
adalric Posted April 27, 2016 Posted April 27, 2016 So it's lepin? I thought the consensus was that Duo Le Pin (DLP) was a SY-associated brand. Although they sound similar, I'm not sure if there's a relation to Lepin.
