Imitation of Lego Pirates of The Caribbean minifigures by KSZ

I love Pirates of The Caribbean.. but I missed both of the ship (Queen Anne's Revenge and The Black Pearl) so they are both really expensive now. Was  around USD100 each but now like.. USD400? "Each".omg >_<.


source: google
However, i still have the minifigures, which is not bad, lol (trying to comfort myself). Here's my collection! There are 33 minifigures in total including complete 7 variants of Jack Sparrow. 



Uh. I only have 32 figures. I need this guy!

King George's Soldier

FYI, the most expensive guy in this set is this fella:

What???? RM250! that's about USD70. Equivalent to my lunch and dinner meal for 12 days lol!

Again, to save on shipping cost,  i don't have the box >_< but here's image that i found on aliexpress:

This is how i got 'em. Each minifigure come with a pair of trading/game cards:


Is it a trend now? Look at the baseplate. The same parts used in Disen's SWAT and Sheng Yuan's Minecraft minifigures set.


Assembled minifigures with accessories/weapon… and "pet" lol >_<

1. Bootstrap Bill


2. Davy Jones


3. Captain Jack Sparrow Skeleton


4. Will Turner


5. Joshamee Gibbs


6. Maccus


7. Gunner Zombie


8. Captain Jack Sparrow with Jacket


Minifigures without their weapon/accessories:






I'm sorry if there's too many pics in this post but I have all the original Lego (on right) to compare:









As you can see, the printing is great, but without dual sided faces. The plastic is great good too. Fitting of their hip to the torso is not as good as Sheng Yuan's, but not as bad as Di Long's SWAT. The leg assembly does not easily fall off but  KSZ might want to improve this part. 

Fitting of other parts (hair piece,head, arm and leg) is great except for Davy Jones. I've injured mine =(. so please extra careful when you assemble yours. The hole in the arm is to small for its claw =(.





There's another imitation of Pirates of the Caribbean lego figure made by Zhiao/JLB:

I'm sorry but i don't think i will review this set =(. The only figure that interest me is Blackbeard, but getting the whole set? uh uh… nope.

  2. Hi! Long time reader, first time commenter. Could I ask which online shopping store you go to to buy yours sets most of the time? I can't seem to find any good ones, and I feel that most of the "ebay" sites like lelong don't offer good prices.
    At the moment I buy my sets and minifigs from these small stalls that set up in malls. My favorite so far is Subang Parade in Subang Jaya area.

    1. I am very interested in the weapons carrying case. I don't know if those cases come with the minifigs or not. Or the reviewer bought those elsewhere.

      The shotgun is unfamiliar.

    2. thanks for the info! uh uh.. the weapon is not camouflaged

      Delete

  7. How did you manage to squeeze in Davy Jones claw? Did u just push it in or did you sand it down first?

    1. I forced it. that;s why i almost broke the arm. i should sand it first to make it thinner =(
