Robianco Posted November 6, 2014 Posted November 6, 2014 Well there's a couple of copies of Onlinesailin figures there (GI Joe)... I'm actually quite hopeful about those. The Silver Surfer looks crap as a SS figure but as a custom fig it might offer something... Same as the torso on the black ninja. In a quiet spell I'm going to give at least a couple of them the benefit of the doubt. But defo not the Wolverine! :)
pmptstc1 Posted November 6, 2014 Posted November 6, 2014 I just really want to see the last figure in that SY GotG set... well, that's far from the only thing I want, but I want to see what they came up with for Groot, if it is him.
Robianco Posted November 6, 2014 Posted November 6, 2014 I'd still be thinking its Nebula if it wasn't for the leaf piece on the side! Why would it be anything other than Groot? If they make a standard fig of Groot but maybe with the Woody arms and legs then I think that would be another coup from the bootleggers and the 'no' brigade would have to take another look!

That's what I'm hoping for. If you look at the far right side of that picture you can see a little bit of brown that could be a hand. It looks like it would be at tall - minifigure height, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
gauz Posted November 6, 2014 Posted November 6, 2014 I can say.. stay far far away of the Zhiao brand minifigs of Wolverine and Batman. They are HORRIBLE!
jangosolo Posted November 7, 2014 Posted November 7, 2014 I'd still be thinking its Nebula if it wasn't for the leaf piece on the side! Why would it be anything other than Groot? If they make a standard fig of Groot but maybe with the Woody arms and legs then I think that would be another coup from the bootleggers and the 'no' brigade would have to take another look! That would be pretty cool, would make me consider swapping for my big fig.. I don't understand why no one has the rest of the leaflet - its maddening!
jangosolo Posted November 7, 2014 Posted November 7, 2014 (edited) Has anyone seen the new Decool FF pic that "Decool" has put on their (probably not really Decool) FB Feed? Not sure if its a MOC or actually happening but the Reed Richards is brilliant! Can't link the pic here at work unfortunately, but well worth a look. Its probably a MOC isn't it....

kid Posted November 7, 2014 Posted November 7, 2014 This one? I think it is just showing what you can do with existing Decool figures.
tkkim79 Posted November 7, 2014 Posted November 7, 2014 so next decool and sy wave are these i want them make that lego did'nt released... daredevil,dr.strange,juggernaut etc
Robianco Posted November 7, 2014 Posted November 7, 2014 I think we sometimes forget that these companies are just in it to make a profit and basing their figures from existing designs is maybe a safer way for them to get sales in their target market. We've just been spoiled a little by the fact that some of their quality can be very good and they often put out products that are close to those of custom mining makers and not just clones of Lego figures. I also think that with the amount of waves they produce it won't be long before they've put out all of the current line of figures and that'll leave them with no choice but to produce new figures or at least clone a lot of the custom figures that are out there.
dirk Posted November 8, 2014 Posted November 8, 2014 Really happy with the latest set arrival. It's the Sheng Yuen SY167 Fantastic Four set. more pics below. http://lotsoflegos.blogspot.ca/2014/11/sheng-yuen-sy167-fantastic-four-mini.html
gauz Posted November 8, 2014 Posted November 8, 2014 Saw the Dargo ones on AE this morning, but only found a 80pc package so far http://www.aliexpress.com/store/product/wholesale-80pcs-Super-Heroes-Avengers-Wolverine-snake-eyes-Bai-Youling-iron-fist-Building-Blocks-Sets-Minifigure/321883_32229744697.html

It's double sided too although it's a shocked face rather than angry face on the reverse. The Johnny Storm is great and really matches the Moonh80 Human Torch game design figure.
kid Posted November 8, 2014 Posted November 8, 2014 which groot do you like best? I think the third and fourth are the coolest. The Bigfig looks too chunky. The official Lego one is cool but I would like a minifig version. The third version looks like something that Lego would put out. Now if someone would make them it would be really great.
Sabbath Posted November 8, 2014 Posted November 8, 2014 Heads up, butt-loads of minifigs are going to be 15% off on the 11th on AE. Also, anyone know what the quality of this set is like? http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Wolverine-with-Helicopters-Deadpool-Maoneto-building-Block-Toy-MINI-Figures-classic-toys-Compatible-With-Lego-toys/1934626245.html
da6driver Posted November 9, 2014 Posted November 9, 2014 This is also not superhero specifically, but bootleg nonetheless. Has anyone seen the quality of these stormtroopers in person or know the manufacturer? Haven't seem them before now, but they look fantastic. http://m.aliexpress.com/item/2026413912.html
Sabbath Posted November 9, 2014 Posted November 9, 2014 OMG trans legs for invisible woman mid-shift customs!

Also, anyone know what the quality of this set is like? http://www.aliexpres...1934626245.html I can vouch for quality of this set ...except for the windscreen which came scratched up ...it's by Bozhi. Note that the image used by sellers on AE is the actual Lego set. The Bozhi has different motorbike wheels and heli wheels. The wolverine in the second shot is not part of the set .. he just happened to be nearby, so i threw him into the shot. Edited November 9, 2014 by dirk
Adnan Posted November 9, 2014 Posted November 9, 2014 Heads up, butt-loads of minifigs are going to be 15% off on the 11th on AE. Also, anyone know what the quality of this set is like? http://www.aliexpres...1934626245.html The quality is pretty good. I bought this set just for Magneto and I was more than impressed by him. Deadpool and Wolverine were okay... The helicopter is a bitch to build! With it's sharp pieces and condensed instructions but it's well worth the price. Go for it! I got mine way cheaper from here: http://www.ebay.com/...N&soutkn=skkMQn Also, I really hope that's a Groot figure in the SY leaflet!
Adnan Posted November 9, 2014 Posted November 9, 2014 In regards to the topic... Bootleg minifigs - worth it or not? (if anyone even cares at this point lol) For me, definitely worth it.
Averniere Posted November 9, 2014 Posted November 9, 2014 OMG trans legs for invisible woman mid-shift customs! Why just the legs, go with legs, arms and hands;-) Note: most of the sellers raised prices on items that go on sale the 11th, so same difference
Sabbath Posted November 9, 2014 Posted November 9, 2014 Actually yeah, a normal Invisible Woman minifig with just a hand or just an arm and hand trans would look even better. hmmmmm
Robianco Posted November 9, 2014 Posted November 9, 2014 (edited) There's already a transparent Invisible Woman custom out there... I can remember who posted it.... With regards to bootleg Stormtroopers... I actually think these look quite good: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Lot-of-5-Custom-Star-Wars-STORMTROOPER-Army-mini-figure-minifigs-Bricks-w-gun-/231316688793?pt=UK_Construction_Toys_Kits&hash=item35db8c8f99 Edited November 9, 2014 by Robianco
