Bootleg Super Heroes minifigs - worth it or not?

[Krikkit]

So, in response to the dual moulded legs, the ones I have now are a single colour with the top halves painted a different colour.  Raven is purple legs with black on the thighs, giving the dual moulded look.

Lepin's doing the Sandcrawler, too.

Seems that the legal case is really slowing them down.

Kinda seems like they wanna get as much stuff out as they can, before anything happens.

Lepin focuses on those big sets a lot, it would be interesting if them or another company did no-longer made medium sets. For example, if someone reissued Lego city or castle stuff from a few years ago or something like that.

So I might be about 3 weeks late here, but I recall talk of finding the models of the different claw pieces used in the Marvel and DC games which don't exist physically, pictured here https://i.imgur.com/nKPifQr.jpg

I have managed to dig them out of my games files. Not going to upload them here in case of copyright issues, but if we want to try get some printed it's a possibility. I could in theory dig out other files from the various games, though I make no promises that everything would work. I have found Hawkgirl's Helmet.

 

As a sidenote, this is my first post with the new forum layout. Not a fan.

Hi,

Does anyone knows if the Lepin 16007 - Haunted Manor Monster Fighters is already released ?

Lots of sellers, but some still say presell...

Anyone has a date release ? Thanks :)

Wow USD$90 shipping to NZ and that's without the original box! Seems awfully steep.

The vendor just photoshopped a Lepin logo on Lego official visuals. I'm impatient to see which letter will be changed by Lepin

I for one am VERY interested how you find it. This may sway me on whether I pick one up. I'd like you to be brutally honest about the quality of the parts... especially the yellow technic bricks, the light bley levers, the rigging and the dish (as well as the print on that).
