I believe everybody's busy with hundreds of Star Wars: The Force Awakens (Episode VII) toys and other items related and I'm here still writing about AOU (Avengers 2: Age of Ultron) minifigures lol.
There is a correction to the number of AOU characters that have been issued by Decool until now. In this post, I did mention that to date, Decool has issued 12 AOU decool minifigure but with the addition of 5 AOU minifigure from this set, the total is 17.
I do not know why Winter Soldier has been included in this set while the other figures in this set are AOU minifigures. There is still AOU character that has not been produced by Decool (Hydra Henchman for example) but there is no label on the box indicates that this set (0205-0210) is for AOU theme so they can include whatever characters they want in the usual set of 6 they issued.
Characters in this set are:
0205 - Iron Man Mark 43
0206 - Thor
0207 - Captain America
0208 - Hawkeye
0209 - Black widow
0210 - Winter Soldier
The minifigures with accessories and weapons:
Each minifigures come with a transparent super jumper, game/trading card and mini catalog (not in the pic):
Comparison with original Lego figure on right:
I was a little disappointed with the quality of Winter Soldier produced by Decool in this set. Here's a close-up photo that show printing on the arm and leg. You can see clearly how bad the printing is. perhaps we have to rely on Sheng Yuan for this figure. FYI, Decool has issued Winter Soldier in the past year (Decool 0138), but it is a different variant.
I might complain too much but I believe SY can do better :)
Cool
ReplyDeleteYou finally have this set! I'm so happy for you MyLegoStore! Haha!
ReplyDeleteI have a question: Which color of Thor's stubble do you prefer? The one in Lego or the one in Decool?
Hi @JC. yeah.. I finally got ahold of this set. ahaha. :)
DeleteThor's stubble? hm.. Decool's version is slightly darker but luckily the design is almost same. not sure which one is my fav but now my eyes feel like they are crossed >_<
Great review as always! :)
ReplyDeleteAnyways, Have you seen this yet? I wonder if this is compatible with the real Lego Dimensions...

whattttt...... hahaha. Bozhi just love to make people angry. Last time is CMF series 1 and 2 and now Lego dimensions? nice try :)
DeleteI've noticed that Decool's quality is dropping, particularly in printing.
ReplyDeleteMaybe they are at the top for too long.
I don't expect anything from decool as SY has started producing figure with two faces and SY can give better quality. but i do feel betrayed by Decool. They don't improve at all :(
DeleteDecool Star Wars Set Pretty Good.
Deletewhen you put all AOU superheroes together, Captain America look weird....
ReplyDeleteHis head look smaller...
hahaa.. i just checked again. the head size is same. maybe the head look small because of printing of the face :)))
DeleteCapt's head looks smaller because of the printing on the face. Gotta agree with MyLegostore. I wish Decool will make the helmet. SY keeps on doing the helmet, but they also keep on doing everything with helmets wrong. The holes for the eyes are too high and far from each other so the face always end up looking retarded. I wish Decool with tweak the Flash helmet they did way back and make a Captain America helmet. And It would be cool if the the helmet will fit on a Steve Rogers (human) head (like an Iron Man helmet on a Tony Stark head).
