What a shame, a lethal combination of white knights and moderators going all North Korea on a tiny part of this site. Very little reason now to visit this site apart from to read the latest ridiculous rambling from Sven. Enjoy the Lego love in! ;-P -
Bootleg Super Heroes minifigs - worth it or not?
BigPoppaBrick replied to KingPixels's topic in Community
I had a couple of issues with them a few months back. Recent orders have been fine. I've ordered from them well over 10 times and only the odd missing figure, which gets sorted eventually. -
LEGO Collectable Minifigures Series 16 Rumors and Discussion
BigPoppaBrick replied to 8BrickMario's topic in Special LEGO Themes
My local Smyths had hundreds of packs today (uk). I brought 50 straight off the shelf, hoping to get 2 full sets. Ended up with 1 full set and 14 out of 16 for the second set. -

That set blows....Ideas sets get worse and worse. Used to be a genuine moment of excitement when one was revealed. -

Had the same "missing figure" with Minifigure Wholesale. Had to be persistent to get what I wanted and they did deliver eventually! I've stopped using them as my main supplier as I had this happen three times. Maybe a little bit harsh as they've been fine on the majority of occasions. Still use them, but only for small orders tho. -

I've used them a lot. Majority of the time I've had no issues. They do seem to take longer to arrive than some other sellers I've used. The issues I have had with them has been down to figure issues and it takes forever to get resolved due to the language barrier. Took me 4 months to get the right Daredevil figure once. -

LEGO Collectable Minifigures Series 15 Rumors and Discussion
BigPoppaBrick replied to Robert8's topic in Special LEGO Themes
Got a full set at Lego store in Sheffield today. Noticed that there appears to be a lot of sets available from Lego that aren't available from Argos, Toys r us etc. Maybe Lego reserve the intitial stock for their own stores to drive footfall and greater propensity to purchase more. I know I spent a small fortune in there today. -

Was hoping that they would have these at Meadowhall Lego store, unfortunately not! Got some of the Star Wars sets instead. -
LEGO Star Wars 2016 Pictures and Rumors

That just happen to be on par quality wise with Lego..... And don't have the burden of only being included in overpriced sets. Hmmm tough call.... -
LEGO Star Wars 2016 Pictures and Rumors

Really easy (& cheap) to get a BB8 off Aliexpress if you don't want to fork out for the X wing or wait for a rumoured set. -

Not when they don't have anything for sale :-( -
Did it bother anyone that Rey referred to the events in the OT as legend and Han confirmed they were true. Seemed odd that she wouldn't know what happened 30 years ago, granted she wasn't born and has lived on a desert planet most of her life but surely that stuff would be well documented?..... Maybe they haven't got Google or Wifi on Jakku!

Enjoyed the film.....did they really need to rip off so much of episode 4 though. Is it deemed ok if you're ripping off your own film history?

Just received the Dargo Force Awakens set. Pretty impressed, Dargo seems to be improving a lot. With DLP and Elephant also having good quality I'd argue the bootleg market is more competitive than Lego, MB, Kreo etc.
