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

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.

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.

5 years too late!!! Bet the designers were queuing up to work on this theme. You can't polish a turd

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.

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....

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.

I have these... :-) Not bad given its Lele, my kids who love superheroes and Minecraft are big fans of this set!!!

The New 52 leg printing..... What do they think they are trying to do? Is it supposed,to show the muscular definition on their legs? Not up on New 52 so no idea if they are consistent with costumes.

So SY release a justice league set that massively shows up Lego on the leg and arm prints and people complain.... No pleasing some folk!!!,

Love the new SY set!!

Thanks for posting the Elephant set. Hoping they do something different soon.

Yeah that is a bit of a shame. Seems to be a lot of copying each other since they all did Avengers sets. Not heard much from Elephant for a while. They seemed to be doing a few things different like Walking Dead and the various Iron Men based on other superheroes. Come on Elephant I want a Game of Thrones set.

@Sven F We're not talking about medicines or clothes. We're talking about clones of Lego (which is a clone itself, but that's a story for another time). You show your ignorance by making an assumption that this is about the cost of Lego for me.... It's not. I have the budget and access to buy Lego, Decool, Megabloks etc as I choose. If I want a Gambit or Beast minifigure am I supposed to wait for Lego to produce? The point you miss is Its my choice what I buy and If I want an ethics education, I'm a big boy and can seek it myself. To keep on topic..... What are people's views when the EBB Homepage advertises certain third parties that produce accessories (normally weapons) that Lego themselves don't to augment people's MOCs etc?

Trying to link buying bootleg Lego to taking drugs or racism!!!! Unbelievable!!!

Lol at suggesting censoring bootleg companies names. I buy Lego and I buy bootleg figures too. It's called consumer choice and it's my right to decide what to spend my cash on, not some white nights on a forum looking to protect TLG. Maybe if Lego didn't split its most desirable figures across several sets that cost ££££££, then there wouldn't be demand for a bootleg market?......

I've used Minifigure Wholesale a lot and had a couple of issues with parts missing. Mainly a cape, some legs and a machine gun. I think the language barrier has been an issue as it taken them a while to finally send me what was missing. They have however always sorted out my issues (just seems to take a while). They do seem to offer preorders a lot and I've noticed they have started to mark them accordingly. However if you brought at a price they should honour that. Be interesting to see if they do....
