  1. Still waiting for mine, previously I was getting stuff from the Far East to the UK in around 5 days - this one has taken 4 weeks so far, tomorrow I can raise a case on ebay, haven't paid a lot for it, but I really wanted it! I would have always said ebay, but have recently joined aliexpress and so far so good. Ebay is still slightly cheaper on some sets, but Aliexpress is like an absolute Aladdins cave - I could spend an absolute fortune on there if left unchecked
  2. I've gone ahead and ordered - though they've dropped the price again - now £5.57! So cancelled and reordered. There's a new polybag out with the SDCC Rocket (and Groot in a pot) http://brickfanatics...bag-discovered/ so even if the bootleggers don't do the SDCC Rocket, its going to be cheaper to source. If a different rocket is done, I'd like to see the comic's blue jacket version. I used the discount to treat myself to that sweet 4pc SY SWAT set, which I have next to no use for, but at £2.50 I have to have it.
  3. I was under the impression that Robuku's ZEA was just a bad shipment, everything I have seen on Aliexpress and ebay (as well as Digger318's review) have suggested that the figure does come with yellow arms and a purple cape, usually if you tell the seller, they ship out a replacement
  4. If you mean the Avengers set (inc Hulk and Falcon) I wasn't that impressed with any of the figures, quality was pretty poor overall - Black Widow is ok, but different outfit, different colour hair and different face. I preferred the Lego version (there is another set inc Phoenix with Black Widow in - BW in that one is superb, in fact all the figs were fantastic)
  5. Now down to £6.22 - definitely worth a gamble now!
  6. Yeah, haven't had to use protection but that's what it's for I guess. Seller tells me October 13th
  7. GOTG Set looks good - and not a bad starting price either. Only worry is that doesn't seem to be a particularly experienced seller. I note they are using the Lego Game's version of Rocket's blaster which is pretty cool (the Official Lego version is ridiculously large). Would feel better if there was a date though!
  8. I've cracked and order the 4pc Zur-en-arrh set off Ali, for the Zur and Begins figures alone. £7.60 shipped for the 4 - not too shabby. I've got some great legs (from the - I think lele? - Hawkeye - a very poor Avengers set that, but the legs look good on bats) to combine with the UCS fig just to improve it slightly, will also consider that head swap earlier in the thread! I have seen some of the individual figs selling for about £4 on ebay (non currently) but they would still be shipped from overseas. No one seems to be selling the set of 4. So its not a bad deal for all 4 - inc the bikes etc (though why on earth is the batwing in there when the fig can't sit in it is a great mystery!) I could wait for sellers on ebay and bid at mad times at night trying to get a deal at 3-4 GBP but that could be weeks away! Plus I think this figure is going to be very popular. I absolutely hated the Zur-en-Arrh storyline in the comics, but the figure looks great and it was the SDCC exclusive - ergo its going in my display. Still desperate for any news on the GOTC line - where is it! sigh.
  9. I know, I thought they would be available by now too! Can't find any information at all on the net.
  10. Back on topic, has anyone noted any release trends for DeCool - from when figures announced in the leaflet to when they appear? I am presuming the GOTG are next to be on sale?
  11. Some Great photos, sorry I haven't got instructions or a parts list. I just worked out and refined the figure from various photots. When I get some time time, I'll try and do some breakdowns via Flickr on one of them Cheers, they are much more fun too! Like big action figures and posable too. I've refined the design quite a bit to improve the durability (tested by my six year old!) Lego is ace.
  12. Cheers - I most certainly do... https://www.flickr.com/photos/99344497@N07/
  13. They are all from the Super Heroes Hero Factory builds - had a lot of fun sourcing and building them, in addition to these I have done a blue Batman and a Green Lantern. Obviously it's JSPs original design (from Cuusoo), and he did a great job on it. Working it out from about 6 pics was a great challenge, and then it was just a case of going through the line and using those parts. I've even done a Boba Fett one with firing missile!
  14. Aha! Maybe I can! Seriously Tempted by the new Decool version, though it will make the other 'Busters look massively out of scale!
  15. I'm loving the Decool etc sets, I have a lego wall full of frames and its an easy way to fill them, some of them are of superb quality. Looking forward to the next batch. I also build hulkbusters, I've done a range - not sure if I am allowed to post pics yet though. Has any heard of a release date for the Decool GOTC yet?
