Sheng Yuan SY263 City Theme Minifigures set

Hi guys!! wow, i really missed this blog. I'm sorry (again) that i'm away for a while. Actually i don't have any new set to review. Most reseller in Malaysia didn't bring new set these past weeks so no new stuff for a while.. and MYR currency rate is kinda weak (USD1=RM3.8) hence buying directly from taobao or aliexpress is now not an option. I just patiently wait for them to be available locally so here's the first set i'm going to review!

@apodistagon. these post is for you. I know you wait for these set for a very long time. ahaha.. 





Just like the latest iron man set (link), these set don't come with any trading/game cards.



Pictures of assembled figure with their accessories:



I must say, the minifigures look really good. The plastic quality and the printing is superb. You will not be disappointed. 




 Close up view:










I don't mind getting extra of this guy. I love his dog =) and i think this is the first lego dog that i have. I have handful of cat (from lego cmf minifigures series) but none of lego dog. So i'll keep this one.



Oh, i'm sorry i do not have any original Lego minifigures (from city theme) to compare =(. I would like to have some but i use most of my fund to buy super heroes theme. Speaking of which, here's the latest SY super heroes set that we can expect to get next:


Magneto, Jean, Black Bolt, Dr.Doom


 The Collector, Dr Strange, Batzarro, Thor?, Storm, Wonder Woman, Martian Manhunter, Taskmaster 

Mandarin, SDCC Batman, Electro & Capt.

Image taken from aliexpress. Thanks to @Celox and @steven for the news!

Oh not to mention walking dead minifigures (Elephant), Ghostbuster (Xinh), and Pirates of the Carribean (XSZ) minifigures! - Thanks @Fabio! =)

      I have to correct my info.
      What i thought is roque is actually Jean Grey from Lego game. So we get another Lego game based Figure from SY! :-)
      Dr.Doom is from the latest Fantastic Four Movie. SY must have done some good research. I was not able to find an flickr based source!

      Here is a picture:

      oh man... it would be great if she is Rogue. but another variant of Jean Grey would be cool too.

    I think that the upcoming Batman minifig is meant to be Zur-En-Arrh Batman... They really do go for some of the more obscure references with their minifigures. :D

    Thanks man! Love the hi-res photos as always. I might skip the sailor, janitor and construction worker. Others are definitely on my buy list.

    I'm wondering when Bozhi's going to release CMF Series 2. I look forward to that one a lot too. Very pleased with Bozhi's CMF overall quality so far.

    I'm buying Thor and Wonder Woman too for my classic superheroes display. Thor's got his helmet which I like. And Wonder Woman I hope has a better face and torso this time.

      uh uh... depends on where are you from. i believe you may only find luck from physical store because most online seller only sell these figs in set..

      about the yellow suit hazmat guy, original figure is quite expensive. Lele has copy of ultra agents fig with white suit hazmat guy. i still don't have review about that set

    This set has arrived in Ipoh and I'm back home with 3 boxes - the two policemen and the miner.

    I am very pleased with all 3 minifigs, except one tiny problem. The miner has got two left foot. I can exchange within 7 days so its no problem at all. Printing and fit is top notch by SY this round. Very nice.

    If only SY would release another CITY theme, that would be great. I'm collecting only CITY stuff now. Money's tight these days.

      ouch. very unusual mistake from sy. but lucky the shop allow exchange for this kind of problem. good service.

      wow. i would love to see your city. may i know if you moc'ed your own building or using enlighten modular set?

      with such quality by sheng yuan, i really hope they consider making cmf series. the printing is superb. really worth the money spent. i think for the time being, i only trust sheng yuan for quality of the minifigures.

    2. apodistagon4 April 2015 at 23:37

      I've not build complete buildings yet because I don't have enough bricks. So far the ones I did complete are small interior dioramas for minifigs. Bricks from Ausini, Star Diamond, Enlighten, GBL, SY and Lego. Could be more bootleg brands, I forgot.

      Seriously, you need shitload of time and bricks to LDD and ultimately build it. I can't afford the time and money for enough bricks yet.

      Yea Sheng Yuan has consistently made good quality stuff and if they make CMF series ... they can take-my-money anytime.

      The New York policeman ... is SY's copy an exact replica of Lego CMF original version? Does the original have back printing?

    I just picked this up and very sad. I also had a problem with my set. This was a sealed package of 8. The street cleaner's internal bag had a hole in it. The box was sealed, but some pieces had leaked out of the package into the box. I took out all the parts, but the torso was missing from the street sweeper. Very disappointed. First time I've had an issue with SY.

      Ouch.. so sorry to hear that. I believe that the package has been leaked before they put it in the box. have you tried to get compensation from the seller? It is rather impossible to get one to one exchange but you can try to get a few bucks refund or discount on next purchase :) I've heard some readers have managed to get a refund that way.

      I meant to reply. I went back to the seller and they just exchanged that figure for another one when I showed them the problem.
