Bootleg Super Heroes minifigs - worth it or not?
wickedlemon replied to KingPixels's topic in Community
Not sure about that set, but I just got the Xinh Flash set and there's no problems with quality. They even have dual printed faces. Having said that, I don't think they've done any AOU figures that SY and Decool haven't. -

They sell Block Tech stuff in the UK in Poundland. I hope they get some of these in. They've awful but I'd like a set. If anyone spots them let me know. -

I'd like to see photos, just to see photos. -

I wonder if anywhere will sell the complete 12 packs? I normally buy two of each anyway. -

I don't think the Arrow is Christo. More likely based on the same original design. There are too many differences and it's not just simplifying the detail. Merlyn isn't a straight copy of the Lego game version either. Would Decool really tweak their designs to make them look different? -

Apart from the Lego SDCC Arsenal and CyclopsBricks Killstroke/Deathstroke, I can't find where these designs are being directly copied from. -

Nice designs. I use Adobe Illustrator. Still waiting for someone to recommend a good free alternative. Try something from here? https://www.nyfa.edu/student-resources/six-free-alternatives-to-adobe-illustrator/ -

I think the idea was mentioned a while back. It would be good to have a group to post designs to making it clear that they were free to use. The more people submitting and the more links to it, the more likely it will be spotted. What is the best software to use for creating vector art? I'm lucky in that I have Illustrator through work, but are there any freebies that are recommended? -

Not an expert, but I've done a few Vector designs (see my avatar for one). It's not that hard once you get started. Maybe we need our own Flickr group and add all our designs there? -
Finally made real versions of these two. Original Captain Britain: H.E.R.B.I.E. from Lego Marvel Superheroes game:

I'd love to see them put out more comic versions of some of the Ultimate/MCU characters Lego do as well as some indie figures. Comics don't start and end with Marvel/DC. -

I'm guessing this one, as it's a straight copy of a Lego set: http://brickset.com/...-Dark-Blue-Mask Although this figure hasn't been bootlegged before as far as I'm aware. -

Not a bad price for individual figures. Some a Xinh though. http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Single-sale-130-style-DC-marvel-avengers-2-super-heroes-Minifigures-Building-Block-Best-Children-Gift/32460973260.html?spm=2114.01010108.3.18.0zUKU8&ws_ab_test=201407_2,201444_6,201409_3 -

Two many similarities for them not to be the same set. You just can't trust renders. I've ordered the OK ones, so I'll find out in a few weeks. -

So that BW could be an original? Just got my Xinh Ghostbusters and not sure whether this was a stray piece of plastic in the packet or something else entirely... -

Any idea where this SY207 Black Widow design originates? -

I had an order cancelled and refunded for "suspicious seller activity" the other day. Oddly the tracking number works and shows the package as just arriving in the UK, so I'm hoping for once it could work in my favour. I going to keep quiet and hope my tower eventually ships. -

I ordered the cheap tower too. I did get a quick message saying it was not out yet, which I guessed anyway. It's a shame AE's dispute process doesn't have the option for the 'seller to send you what you ordered'. Refund's don't cut it at time's like this. -

Good spot! I have two sets of these - just checked and it's one of each type. I wonder how many other figures have had different versions in the same sets? Obviously SY's switch from tapered feet. Also the SY Batman set switched from capes to plastic wings. So what other changes have people noticed? -

Thank you! The the Batman included is nothing like the one on the box art. Damn Dargo, now I have to find photos of all their sets to check them too.
