Ridiculous, snobbish decision.

The Sabretooth here looks like it already has some of the small claws.

One post features a giant Venom?!

Speak for yourself, I'm pretty chuffed this is coming out!

I live in Yorkshire.

I have quite a lot of the bases of the type that you linked to, though I'm in the UK, don't know if that'd be a help or hindrance postage wise.

Actually these figures are very similar to the renders.

It's a valid concern. The vast majority of orders I get from aliexpress are fine, and when there's an issue, sellers are again almost always willing to send out a replacement of issue a partial refund etc. There is 'telling' what you're going to get, sellers on ali have feedback just like on ebay, so you know when you're in safe hands, or when you're rolling the dice a bit. A huge part of the point of these bootlegs is that they're at such a low price point - too many middlemen will only result in unnecessary price inflation. Aliexpress is a middleman site in the first place, even - there because people who can't speak/read Chinese can't order from Alibaba or what have you. Pointing out that you charge more shouldn't be seen as an unreasonable attack - it was a truthful statement - the fact you got so rankled by it perhaps shows that you know you're another link in a chain that was already complete.

I'd say their quality has improved since that set. Not hugely, but up to 'below average' maybe. At any rate, I don't think people need avoid them like the plague or anything!

better pictures of the new dargo trans aou figs. http://www.aliexpress.com/item/1PCS-Captain-America-D854-Single-Sale-Minifigure-For-Individually-Sale-Marvel-Super-Hero-Avengers-Building-Blocks/32438231505.html

It's not just you, had similar delays myself. Though to be fair, I knew in advance with many AliExpress orders that the figures hadn't been made yet, wereas when I've ordered from ebay sellers (including rosechen) I think they have only been selling whats physically on hand - they more frequently have actual photos of the figures rather than the renders that seem to be on most Ali item pages.

The Dargo transparent Iron Man figures have actual pictures, rather than just renders, on their listings now. So it seems they finally were able to manufacture them. http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Dargo-853-Crystal-Iron-Man-8pcs-lot-Minifigures-Building-Blocks-Super-Heroes-Avengers-Assemble-Bricks-Baby/32399532923.html
