Richard Dower Posted November 22, 2015 Posted November 22, 2015 (edited) I just saw this item on ebay, look at the panels.....they dont seem to be an official Lego mold design, are they 3D printed? Part #64451 dont exist in Blue....where did he get them?: http://alpha.bricklink.com/pages/clone/catalogitem.page?P=64451&idColor=85#T=C&C=85 http://www.ebay.ie/i...-/131658742774?

Richard Dower Posted November 23, 2015 Author Posted November 23, 2015 Could not it be just rendered image? Hmm... Max its an ebay sale...i wonder if this is a Chinese pirate thing? Quote
Lyichir Posted November 23, 2015 Posted November 23, 2015 Seems to me like it might be a knockoff... Quote
Richard Dower Posted November 23, 2015 Author Posted November 23, 2015 Seems to me like it might be a knockoff... i actually really like the added design they put on the panels....those two lines, adds a nice decal/design to those old panel designs. Quote
SevenStuds Posted November 23, 2015 Posted November 23, 2015 Found it: its callled "Qihui Blocks" and its most definitely not LEGO, just a copy. Quote

N-4K0 Posted November 23, 2015 Posted November 23, 2015 Those Chinese, they copy everything these days Quote
aminnich Posted November 23, 2015 Posted November 23, 2015 (edited) They have some interesting models :D Edited November 23, 2015 by aminnich Quote
Cumulonimbus Posted November 23, 2015 Posted November 23, 2015 Those names sound fantastic: Mighty Torrent, Lighting Flash, Raging Fire, Shadow Saber. But the sets themselves look too crude for my taste and I suspect that the quality of the plastics and the mouldings are much lower than we are use to form TLG. Quote
Epic Technic Posted November 23, 2015 Posted November 23, 2015 Oh patents and China! Honestly, they don't even look that good, definitely not up to TLG's standards. Quote
flyboy01 Posted December 10, 2015 Posted December 10, 2015 yeah! I will buy one to see the colour resemblance. Quote
D3K Posted December 10, 2015 Posted December 10, 2015 The same guy also sells this and this as well as some other "Technic sets".. From the pictures, they look to be pretty high quality reproductions, but I've never put my hands on one of these knock offs. One does need to look closely to see they are fakes. It doesn't help that he also uses some of Blakbirds renders. The prices he's asking are pretty high for fakes as well, but he does actually write in the ad: The Original For £300.00 on eBay Are one is sold as high quality reproduction hence are low price Quote
Epic Technic Posted December 10, 2015 Posted December 10, 2015 Ya, he really has his thing over priced too. I checked on bricklink for an 8051, the cheapest is $57.99 instead of his $75.73. Clearly he is ripping the customers off. More expensive fakes! Quote
