Bootleg Super Heroes minifigs - worth it or not?

[mooproxy]

Looks like this is how Xinh do legs now

Maybe they've invested a load into those shitty prints and feel the need to use them. At least they've not tried to do them for detailed parts.

Regarding replacement arms for Stan Lee; are there any other single sale bootleg figs that have a similar coloured torso I could grab for the arms?

Batman v Superman Lex Luthor maybe?

[tu_bui]

Jabba looks fine.

[briksen]

I don't think Xihn released a two parts helmet yet, XH102 is an oooold release (dual torso prints -celebration medal or standard uniform- but old one part helmet)

Pogo did the new helmet with PG633

[briksen]

ok. thanks

Here's the full set:

Seems a few seasons out of date, but looks pretty decent nonetheless.

Yeh, they are copied from an old Citizen brick set.

[jangosolo]

Well, they've made Jon Snow look stupid!!

Tyrion has possibilities for improvement I suppose

Also... I just caved and bought the UCS Falcon. Yikes.

I hope they do the rest of them. They are really cool.

Agreed, although they are a good base for modding to a good standard!

Yeh, I noticed that they split them into 6, so I'd wager that the other 6 are for a next wave.

I am actually kinda thinking that TT might have had these made specifically,

As when we got the emails saying game of thrones were imminant, I asked TT toys, and they asked me if I thought they'd be popular. And I told them that there is a massive fan base for the show, and sent them the image of the citizen brick customs. The brand is listed as MOC, so maybe they invested in a batch to be printed.

Oh yeh another Pokemon set, but this time a Poke Centre..

Black Panther has the mask that was featured in the DLP set, too.

I'm ready to cave in too, which vendor did you choose?

I don't believe in a simple seller desigs something, even if he had access to pad printing machines, he'll still need parts with the correct colors and there is no way a seller could produce "only" 1000 items and can sell them as the same price as manufacturer's big batches.

Another element is the timing, if you asked 3 monthes ago you could still think there were a link, but less than that there is no way your picture sending triggered the batch.

In my opinion T T Toy just picked/stocked that one knowing there will be a market, and the manufacturer is not renown enough to be listed yet.

I have two "silly" questions :

- Talking about "unnamed" manufacturer : does someone knows who did the mace windu in :

- Why is it the opposite of "saving" money if I want multiple times the same minifigure (not 50 just 5) :

on AE shipping is often free if you set a quantity of 1 or 2 maybe 3, but going higher makes shipping cost appear (and it won't come back to 0 unless you refresh the page)

The only trick I found is doing severall orders ...

[mooproxy]

Black Panther has the mask that was featured in the DLP set, too.

In fairness, I doubt many bootleg regulars are getting this set for anything other than abomination and maybe Robin. Every other figure has already been out for months,

[jangosolo]

I'm ready to cave in too, which vendor did you choose?

The one I was going to go with (which had 170+ orders) has totally disappeared, which is a little worrying! Store is still there, I expect they've pulled it as they had an insane amount of orders to process and who knows, the price may change

I've gone for this one - same price (plus a free Vader buildable figure!) and seller has a lot of good feedback. Fingers crossed.

Hey, decent points. But it's as much speculation as mine. The owners of TT could have a good relation with a pad printer. My friend has tshirts custom printed from China, so I don't think it impossible for a retailer to put in a small print run. And then have a good many weeks for them to decide, sort it out, have it printed and shipped to them. Literally no other seller is listing the game of thrones (yet), and for the past few months it is always block toy wholesales, kopf and a few others that get almost every minifigure set way before TT list them. So what ever you believe, it is still within the realms of possibility.

That Mace WIndu is from Pogo :)

I don't have the reference sorry, mine was from TT, http://www.aliexpress.com/item/PG629-Windu-Single-Sale-Star-War-Minifigures-Mace-Building-Blocks-No-Logo-Base-Set-Model-Bricks/32658048415.html?spm=2114.13010608.0.114.FozMHK I've been grabbing each Star wars release and they are slowly working their way through the Jedi/Sith Mace, Grevious, Dooku, Vader, Robot Darth Maul, Malgus,

Before that they teamed with M branded for loads of clone releases.

Lepins Simpson sets are up for pre-order. 16004 and 16005. I asked the seller and he said he's no idea when they'll get them
