  1. That's a shame. The infiltrator comes with Qui-gonn, watto, and a couple others who it seems noone else seems to be doing.
  2. Did anyone get the Lepin Sith Infiltrator or other Force Awakens set? Are the figures still lepin standard aka terrible or are they semi-decent? Are the pictures anywhere?
  3. Well why not just make minifig runs again? Noone else has made sandman, the new rhino mech, blob, Bruce Banner, swamp thing, or unclothed vision. Just do a set of those and it'd sell well, and they wouldn't have competition from everyone else.
  4. Looks ok, but I'm in no rush since we already have venom bigfigs on single sale. Also I don't like SY for trying to become the new lego and sell sets for the figures. EDIT: Just seen sandman's face. Looks decidedly less ok.
  5. This is a real pic. It's promotional image, but still real Also, does anyone know who this is supposed to be?
  6. For those interested, here's an image of this year's SDCC Captain America. How long do you think until we see bootlegs?
  7. Each to their own, the Lone Ranger showed us that even terrible movies can release good sets. On a separate note, does anyone know where I could get a cape like the below image? The only official one is part of Darth Malgus so costs £10 a go, but maybe a custom part maker or bootleg figure might have it.
  8. Lepin did an airport battle but if you're looking for decent minifigs or printing then look elsewhere. I think either Decool or Xinh have announced they're going to do it, but no sign yet as far as I know.
  9. New official Hulk vs Red Hulk set from tlg. One of those figures looks awfully similar to a certain xinh figure from a wave or two back. Coincidence?
  10. They've just been announced, so I'm going to guess that we won't see real pics for a few days or even weeks yet. Which suit do you mean? You mean one of the ones from SY169?
  11. I guess, but to be honest my artistic ability is fairly nonexistent so I guess I can keep trying. Ideally I'd go for a JSA Jay Garrick with the upturned lightning bolt which would be tricky to find. I suppose I could make it myself if I can get the parts.
  12. In fairness, they had someone else's custom to copy off from that. Though I think they had the same for the three CW speedsters. But compare the zoom figure we say to the Flash and RF pictures we had now. they're so different and yet should look almost exactly the same. I seriously don't get it. Hopefully someone will release more photos and we'll see if it helps. You mean the flash torso from SY269? Because that's still very much a Barry Allen design rather than a Jay Garrick one. As for Pogo Harley, IIRC photos came up a couple weeks back at the same time as the suicide squad joker ones. I think they look mostly alright, but there's very little contrast on the body so her midriff looks more white than flesh coloured.
  13. Hopefully they'll make classic electro, but my guess is what with the helmet being a custom part, they'll need tlg/someone else to do it first for them to copy the piece. I'm debating making a Jay Garrick myself. I figured I could attach the "wings" from an old style Flash mask to a generic army helmet, and use stock parts for legs, arms, face etc. but that leaves the torso needing that distinctive lightning bolt pattern. Anyone got any ideas about how to do that? (I can't custom print my own parts). And yeah, the super skrull looks pretty awesome. It's just unfortunate that it's looking like Xinh's big foray into previously unreleased DC figures is going so disastrously.
  14. Fair point, but even that wasn't as sketchy and incomplete as these. Do you think they have someone else make these figures or something? Because Xinh at its best is pretty much on the same level as official, but then they do something like this. I don't get it.
  15. Frankly I'd love to see some of the more obscure characters that lego are never going to do. Like JSA members, or the likes of Super Skrull and Mysterio. If they make decent figures out of those I'd buy all of them. Honestly I couldn't tell you, I'm just trying to hope that the figures we'll ultimately get will be better than that. Even in their early days Xinh weren't as bad as that, so it'd be really out of place for their new set of figures to like that.
  16. I guess we can only hope that they got the early prototypes of these xinh figures because they were being rushed for photos, and the actual figures will be better. We can hope, right? Right?
  17. Got one a few months back. Don't care about the turrets, but the figures are actually very good. Would I be right in assuming the design for Black Bolt and Jean Grey were lifted directly from the Lego Marvel Superheroes game? Because if so and they can make proper figures from that, that's a goldmine of potential figures for them still to do. Yikes, that's worse than the early pogo figures. It's a real shame - if done well the set had serious potential.
  18. Regarding Star Girl, I found a link to the whole set, but it isn't cheap: http://www.aliexpres...f0-038cf1b3f0bd However if you're in the UK, here is a link to an eBay seller: http://www.ebay.co.u...cwAAOSwzJ5XVy~t Bear in mind I have absolutely no proper knowledge of the matter, but it appears this set is going/has gone out of production. It was an early set and it's now suddenly pretty hard to find.
  19. Yeah, I was thinking of using it as a star girl, just assumed that they were going for Miss America on account of the set. Either way, anyone got a link? Also, while looking for star girl (still looking, so if anyone has a link please provide one) I came across this, claiming to be a decool brand Lady Sif figure. It certainly looks like a coordinated figure, but does anyone know where it's from?
  20. I seem to be noticing a few single sale links on old decool figures previously not available on single sale (example: wolverine with cowl: http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Single-sale-Shen-Yuan-Marvel-Villain-Galactus-Minifigures-Collection-TOYS-GIFT-Building-Block-Best-Children-Gift/32423213774.html?spm=2114.01010108.3.22.wAwzXW&ws_ab_test=searchweb201556_7,searchweb201602_1_10037_10017_407_10033_406_10032,searchweb201603_7&btsid=6e45f3f9-7040-4f60-b60d-1f874be7cced). Based on pure speculation might this mean that those figures are going out of production? It's already difficult to find the original iron man waves. On a second note, there was a captain america wave a while back which included a Miss America figure. Anyone got a link to that on single sale?
  21. To be honest, I doubt it. SY have been big on set exclusives recently. Look at that Bruce Banner figure they did a while back. As for the other figure, unless it's a badly done killer croc or a swamp thing, I guess it has to be abomination, unless someone else knows what it is. EDIT: Also, if you want a killer croc, I'd say don't get this one. An official set with bigfig Croc (along with a few other suicide squad members) is coming out soon, and I think we all know that Xinh, Pogo, and everyone else will be making their versions. They'll be more accurate and on single sale.
  22. At least those two are looking good. Let's hope either that's a dodgy batman they got a picture of, and/or that's the only one which is particularly bad. As for Batman, IIRC, that's zur-en-arrh batman. Decool did a better version (closer to the SDCC figure) a while ago as part of a set. Here's the set, not found a single sale: http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Decool-0184-0189-SuperHero-X-men-Ororo-Munroe-Magneto-Catwoman-Wolverine-Batman-Minifigure-Building-toys-Compatible/32291688904.html?spm=2114.01010208.3.151.ohh3Pw&ws_ab_test=searchweb201556_7,searchweb201602_1_10037_10017_10033_406_10032,searchweb201603_7&btsid=1464b3ea-2b07-46d7-bcb5-f8ec6ce13f2d
  23. That's...actually quite disappointing. Shame. I now only hope Starfire measures up.
  24. I'm yet to hear something bad about t t toys. Perhaps they're worth a try.
