Lego Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles TMNT - Original vs Knock Off

This is mine. Original lego figure that cost me about RM400 (USD123) to collect them all in one shot.
i should have used stair type display case
Shortly after, knock off version come out.. but i missed them because i really don't bother imitation lego at that time. but yesterday i found them again, so i grab a set - as usual they come in set of 8.





Unboxing them...

To cut long story short.. here's all the knock off figure with the accessories =)

I took a few pictures to compare them side by side with the original that i have.
Top - Sheng Yuan's , bottom - original
For these individual comparison, the original lego is on the right, and Sheng Yuan is on the left. Main different is the leg assembly.







The hardest part is to identify the accessories. They are too small for us to find word "Lego" on them. maybe the use of magnifying glass will help.




meanwhile, when batman is having holiday with cat woman...

  1. Well, maybe the biggest quality difference is the back of the turtles' headbands !

  2. I think Sheng Yuan has updated their figures for this. I just bought a box of SY here in Korea, and the foot soldier is basically identical to the one on the right (darker color print) and shredder's face is identical to Lego's version.
