addemlit Posted May 29, 2014 Posted May 29, 2014 The GL is from the first wave of DeCool figures although that was a real battle to get one with a perfect print. I've now got 2 versions of that one... I got one from another seller but I'm not sure which company made it. The Batman is from the seller that has the Spiderwoman figure... I just bought the torso and BrickLinked the rest. Fortunately Superman was just the figure we got in the Lex Luthor Mech set. I'll PM you about the cards shortly. I forgot all about something superman being a comic con "exclusive". I have the decool one too I just need to swap the hairpiece. The decool one is too light. And what about Bizarro? I'm getting the SY version I just need to swap out the legs
Robianco Posted May 29, 2014 Posted May 29, 2014 Yeah... the SY Bizarro is pretty good... I got a head from another custom figure that I sold on the repro cards I did. The cape is something that will need replacing... the SY version is too soft.

For the legs I just used an extra joker hip and extra Spider-Man leg.
CustomJoe_MD Posted May 29, 2014 Posted May 29, 2014 (edited) Ask uncle Eric or the alien queen, if you can borrow theirs. http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?M=sh031 http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?M=col128 I'd say it's feasible getting a lego cape. What do you think? Edited May 29, 2014 by CustomJoe_MD

Swifty118247 Posted May 30, 2014 Posted May 30, 2014 Looking to get either decool iron man or sy iron man. Which one is better cause currently thinking that decool looks better! Anyone got any advice
KingPixels Posted May 30, 2014 Author Posted May 30, 2014 Looking to get either decool iron man or sy iron man. Which one is better cause currently thinking that decool looks better! Anyone got any advice Decool is probably better in terms of printing detail, but Sheng Yuan is better in terms of printing quality and colouring. Decool has the weird pointy shoulders as well.

I'd say they were pretty terrible... They also did sets of Black Widow and Wolverine... some terrible designs and awful print. Except for the Scarlet Spider figure Lele did I pretty much steer clear of stuff that isn't SY or DeCool. Edited May 31, 2014 by LuxorV Please do not quote images from the same page. Thank you.

LuxorV Posted June 1, 2014 Posted June 1, 2014 Note to all: During last week, I had to remove a number of images that were too big according to our Member Guidelines (which you all subscribed when you registered). Please pay more attention to image size when deeplinking from other sites. Thank you.
Swifty118247 Posted June 1, 2014 Posted June 1, 2014 http://www.aliexpress.com/ Thanks for this, looking to order some from this website and wanted to see if anyone else ordered them from here!! Just a quick note, quite a lot of the stuff on this website is fake but its okay for this stuff because it is itself bootleg! Just a word of warning!!
Ashnflash Posted June 4, 2014 Posted June 4, 2014 (edited) I'm not against them. I would like them even more if their the back of the legs look better then I would like them even more. But what I don't like is when people go on and take some of the people from flickr's pictures that I'm sure was not easy to do. I like them because for people like me who live in Canada there is no way we can go to SDCC to get the exclusive figures and I'm definitely not paying over $200 for them.

Robianco Posted June 4, 2014 Posted June 4, 2014 The back of the legs (and the smaller 'toes' at the front) was just a feature of early SY figures. They've stopped this now and have exact copies of Lego legs. Just the DeCool outer 'blade' rather than the stubs connectors on the hips to contend with now!
Swifty118247 Posted June 5, 2014 Posted June 5, 2014 Just a quick question, how do you pay for stuff on aliexpress??
KingPixels Posted June 5, 2014 Author Posted June 5, 2014 Upcoming Sheng Yuan figures: Nothing intersting here. Upcoming Decool figures: Just a quick question, how do you pay for stuff on aliexpress?? I think you can use Paypal. Not sure.
Swifty118247 Posted June 5, 2014 Posted June 5, 2014 Upcoming Sheng Yuan figures: <Image Removed> Nothing intersting here. Upcoming Decool figures: WOW!! Those thing figures are great! Can't wait to get them and also want hawkeye figure as well!! And thanks for the advice about payment on aliexpress!
BlueberryWaffles Posted June 5, 2014 Posted June 5, 2014 (edited) Ooh...never bought bootlegs before but Christo Joker, SDCC Spidey and Phoenix, alternate Wolverine and an extra BW and Cap for $6 with FREE SHIPPING TO THE STATES? Oh heck yes! EDIT: 3 big fig Hulks....for $6. Aw yes. I love this site. Edited June 5, 2014 by Tolkien
addemlit Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 That Hawkeye would look so much better with a mask accessory. Can't wait for The Thing bigfig!
Brickmamba Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 Recently picked up whole bunch of decool figs, must admit for the price can't complain, other than the lesser plastic, decent prints, will continue to get more like the bigfig thing and masked captain above
Robianco Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 I think there's the potential for a couple of interesting figures there from SY. I've never been a huge fan of the official Black Widow figure... her torso and leg design was a bit too much 'Agents' rather than the simple black costume she had so depending on how SY's designers handle that it would be good (looks like we'll have to replace the face and hair anyway). Hawkeye in the purple might be OK as well as the revised version of Nick Fury. The Cap with the hood is just what I've done with the Winter Soldier set they put out. I rearranged some of the torsos with legs and heads from other figures in that range and made some much better figures... The rest of them I've given away. I'd like to se if thats a new Iron Man design rather than a rehash of the first one. It's also the first bigfig that SY have done so interested to compare that to the real one and the DeCool one. Thing with the blue pants looks great. Not sure about the other pant options though... Does he ever appear with white or red pants? That Bigfig with the modified DeCool FF figures will pretty much complete that set and I don't see Lego putting out an official FF set anytime soon. Someone has Thing on Aliexpress already but they don't accept Paypal so I'll wait.
Dr Leg O Brick Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 (edited) Thing wore white pants, and a white vest, when the FF changed to the Future Foundation. Thing also has wore red along with the rest of the FF recently I believe, though I have no clue why, I'm out of touch with the comics so perhaps someone else can help. Loving the Thing! Though I believe he should be one of these quasi big figs (like some of the TMNT figs), I'm still going to get this one. Looks great, is it original or is it based on someone's custom?
