As promised, here's the next SWAT set that i'm going to review:
Pardon the image above, i didn't receive this set with box so i use image that i found on the internet.
Here's how i received them. This is the only SWAT set that the weapon doesn't come in plastic rack. So you don't need to detach them like in other SWAT set.
Weapon/accessories for each minifigures:
The minifigures with fully equipped weapon/accessories:
Have a look at their printing on the torso:
Close up pics of each minifigure:
I think i love this guy the most. looks sooo bad-ass
This vest caught my attention. I love the arm pad:
update@20/01/2015:
Thanks to Bk Brickonstene from comment section below. This arm-pad vest is actually imitation of Modern Brick Warfare.
print-screen from Modern Brick Warfare page |
There are two type of gas mask in this set:
Even the baseplate also is unique. The size is about 4 x 4 but with rotating part at the middle.
So you can have the minifigure facing any side with the baseplate arranged in the same line.
Here's all the weapon and accessories you can get from this set:
[update@Jan 26th, 2015] replace picture with updated weapon name:
The baseplate is so cool
ReplyDeleteyeah, i dont mind to get extra if they are loose available. of course im going to rub off the brand printed on the plate. aahahah
DeleteOooh ... nice ... too busy at the moment to savor your review right now ... a quick question ... how's the plastic quality? Approaches SY/Decool/LELE level?
ReplyDeleteThis set is good! It looks darn cool!
Hey there buddy. i just look at them again before answering your question. i think you will love it. the plastic is good. the leg firmly attached to the torso, even the tactical belt is in between =)
Deleteand no loose part. the hand, the leg. all good. =)
If this set is sold in my area, I'm getting the minifigs for these stuff:
ReplyDeleteThe tactical vest with shoulder protection - Tactical Vest BR1. (Highlight of this series personally)
Belt with an additional holder on the left hip - Tactical Belt G5. (another outstanding item for me)
Handgun with laser sight - SG19t.
And more rifles (UMP 45, M14A, M4T1, M4A1 SB) to add to my collection. Nice.
The baseplate really unique compared to all the baseplates out there, even Lego's own. Can it be used for MOC revolving doors I wonder.
Now I have to wait and see if this set ever reaches my toy shops here in Ipoh. Where did you buy it? Ordered online?
hi there. yeah.. my friend bought extra for me. To save cost, the set dont come with boxes =(. ahaha
Deleteim still waiting parts to moc my own armoury room/set. have 4 extra SY305 (following your advice) but still dont have the guts to open it. im afraid i dont have any skill to build my own creation. so far my life is just like Emmet. following order/instructions without fail. ahahaha.
now that you mention it. i'm thinking to get extra of this set too. just for the vest and the baseplate. =))
All in all, this set cost you how much (RM)? How nice if I live in KL. Can tumpang beli.
DeleteI paid RM25 for these =). eh maybe rm20. can't remember.
Deletei dont' want to promise anything but hey i'll let you know if my friends wanna order some more =)
Wow, the vest!
ReplyDeleteDisen really want to get into the market!
They are not playing around...
Yeah, they are kinda unique. it will be cool to display them some in armoury room (if i have one) ahhah
DeleteI am waiting for my set to arrive ( i think that will be in FEB 2015 )
ReplyDeleteI'm sure you will love them a lot. it's worth the wait =)
DeleteHi Legostore,
ReplyDeleteHave a look for this facebook page
Mighty Utan
Selling the lego products
Hi @steven. i try to get series 13 from them but im too late =(. so far they are the cheapest! last time i got my series 12 from bricksanctuary, but to date they havnt' advertise any series 13 =(
Deleteactually the arm pad vests are copy of http://modernbrickwarfare.com/br1-tactical-vest/ . I am sorry for those guys but you know ... just the accessories are around 20 USD so long live the bootlegs brands and the free market
ReplyDeleteHi @Bk Brickonstene. I realllly appreciate your info. I will include it in my post above. I don't know the design is from modern brick warfare.
DeleteThanks!!!!
As I mentioned before the prices of modernbrickwarfare or brickarms are huge and the quality of the Chinese products is better and better so.So ...I am sorry for them but not anybody is so rich to afford them and on the free market it would be stupid from my side to buy the same product to a bigger price.
DeleteOff topic, I apologise. Remember the talk about using thinner/solvent/nail polish to remove paint from Lele's weapon crate?
ReplyDeleteI tried thinner/solvent on a piece of printed lego plate to be safe. Dabbed some thinner with a cotton ball and rubbed the print off. The paint came of easily but I notice it leave the surface of the plastic really dulled. So I tried rubbing it on a piece of unwanted plastic, the thinner when rubbed hard enough, can damage plastic surface. Delicate texture on plastic surface can be damaged.
So I googled for safer easy-to-find solutions. There are warnings about nail polish not safe to plastic too. But 'brake oil' (not brake cleaner) is recommended and safe for plastic? Anyone tried, can you share your experience?
this is valuable information. i just tried the same with a piece of SY printed plate. used the nail polisher from my gf and you are right the plastic on the rubbed parts becomes dull. where did you find the information about the "brake oil"?
Deletei have a decool bigfigure with smudges (again) and don't want it to become dull.
i wish decool would improve their quality checks!
i did some research and it turns out "methylated spirit" is the best one to clean out those smudges without affecting the plastic. i will try it this afternoon when i find a shop that has it :x
DeleteI hope methlated spirit works. Please let me know how it turn out.
Deletehello just to let you know. i haven't found one in my local shops. will be checking online soon.
DeleteThese are great stuff but I would like to ask, what are the plastic quality of the weapons,vest and other accessories? Are they as good as SY swat?
ReplyDeleteI'm just guessing. The weapons quality looks quite good judging from the photo alone. Details on the plastic is well defined.
DeleteAnd thank god, we have a big hi-res photos to see clearly. Keep the photos as hi-res as possible bro, we love it. Unless it's JLB or Dargo or Lago whatever ... then 240px is enough. :D
@apodistagon. you are the expert. when you guys ask about the quality of these stuff, i need to go back and "feel" them again as i forgot how they were.
Deletefor all the rifle, gun, knife, grenade.. even the gas mask, i have tried to squeeze them. They are hard! I can confirm that the plastic is better than Di Long a.k.a Doll (http://mybrickstore.blogspot.com/2015/01/lego-camouflage-swat-by-di-long-d101.html)
To be honest, my finger already confused which one is better. Is it okay if i want to admit those weapons are better than SY? it's very subjective judgement. i want to recommend this brand but i'm afraid i have a very low standard lol.
anyway, my test area for a gun is around the gun barrel. (so the longer the barrel, the weaker /easier to bend the rifle). the result? SY's plastic for their rifle is softer than Disen's. I actually broke some of my SY rifle to test this. lol. I think i use fair and equal amount of pressure to test those.
as for the vest.. they are on par with sheng yuan. same thin plastic. Decool's vest is thicker =)
DeleteI just have an idea related how to test the weapon plastic.Instead to test the weapon itself it is better to test the molding frame attached to weapon. Like this you will be able to observe the plastic quality without damaging the weapon
Deletehi @Bk Brickonstene =). thanks for the idea. thats brilliant actually. i should think of that earlier. ahhaa

DeleteI was searching for these two guns on the web but couldn't find them. Now that we have identified the grease gun ... we have one more left.
Thank you guys! I will update my post above with all these info =)... im really thankful to you guys =)
Deletei notice my M4T1 above without grip. i'm not sure if i lost it or the weapon come without it
DeleteGBL army set ... one of the minifig has an M4T1 with grip and flashlight. Check that set out.
DeleteI would recommend to discontinue to post the links to brickarms or modernwarfare, and instead to put just the weapon name . The reason , like this we will not give them reasons to sue Decool ,SY etc. I would prefer to be able also in the future to buy them cheap :)
Deletei remove their link in main post above. thanks for the tips @Bk Brickonstene =).
DeleteAh sorry for the outgoing links. Should have realised what we're dealing with (bootlegs, copyrights) and used anonymous link referrers (blankrefer.com etc).
DeleteIf you don't mind editing the weapon list photo again ... here's the last couple of addition (Furrberg Shotgun and P98 grenades). All the guns identified.
Delete- P98 grenade
- Rifles and SMGs (from left to right):
UMP 45 ..... Brickarms Grease Gun ..... M14A ..... M4T1 (no grip in photo) ..... Furrberg Shotgun (Brickarms Offensive Combat Series 1 pack) ..... M4A1 SB
hi there. its my pleasure to write the weapon name on the photo. im more than grateful with you guys helping me with the weapon name and their origin =). i'll edit the pic in a while =). thanks @apodistagon
DeleteDone editing and uploading the picture with weapon name. Thanks @apodistagon & @FrancisMatti =). You guys are the best =)

you are amazing hahaha! love your blog! great effort you put in your reviews! i will be sending you a present soon. will get in contact you on whatsapp soon. waiting for it to arrive =)
DeleteHi I'm from uk and would like to start collecting these and many imitation figures were can I buy from as cheap as poss please.
ReplyDeleteCheers nick
Hi there =) If you looking for specific brand, i would recommend Decool and Sheng Yuan. Please stay away from Lele and other brand. that's my personal opinion but i think consistent with all the comments and feedback from others too. You may use ebay to find them but it's quite pricey. (you may try using keyword "decool"). next available option is using aliexpress (http://www.aliexpress.com). I't a great site, imho, just the same with amazon, but full with china made stuff. Try looking for reputable seller from their feedback and their order history. =)
DeleteHi there,
ReplyDeleteMay I know where to get those Disen SWAT units?
Thank you
Hi again, do you have extra set(SWAT DISEN) for sale? Can't find this locally. I'm interested to buy also.
ReplyDeleteHi @FrancisMatti ; i'm sorry i dont have extra. I try to find them on taobao too but cannot find any. maybe we use wrong keyword for our search =(
DeleteThis is about the only set left I'm looking forward to. No other SWAT sets so far has that belt and vest.

ReplyDeleteIs this the one?
yup!! confirmed!
DeleteFor me this set and the Kazi one are the best Swat's till now
ReplyDeletehi do you know the correct DISEN model # for these mini figs? At AliExpress the sellers are sometimes slightly confused, maby due to language/translation problems. Hence they call this DISEN set DECOOL and DEASON + have a bunch of different model#...Could he correct number be 14101? Also, did you get cards with this set? Thx for a reat site! / GnrlClstr
ReplyDeleteHi there. I received this set in loose condition (but still sealed) without box, so i dont receive any card (if there is one). Im not very sure myself about the exact code number but if you have specific seller to ask, maybe you can give him this link.
