Sheng Yuan SY295 Super Heroes

I'm sure most of us are into super heroes movies, regardless of the DC or Marvel or from other categories. Are you excited to watch these?



I start my excitement with Sheng Yuan lol. I wanna buy Doctor Who LEGO Set #21304 but all stores are sold out. The place that i went (LEGO Certified Store here in Malaysia) asked me if I was interested to get in their "waiting list" but they are not certain when they will restock (^_^)". Those LEGO set will never be enough.. ahaha. 

Set of 8's Sheng Yuan's Heroes Assemble that i got last week;






Hmm, i think i might have a problem naming some of the variant.


Assembled figure with accessories/weapons:

1. LEGO Harley Quinn from #76035 Jokerland. The alternate (rear) face is different from LEGO.


2. LEGO Batman (unknown variant). I hate those faces. Perhaps it's inevitable as they try to align the eyes with the hole in the cowl.


3. LEGO Iron Man Mark 33 Silver Centurion. 


Is this the same figure, which will be released in polybag with pre-order video games?


The only figure in this set that has print on the side of the arms and legs.


[update@Feb 26th,2016] 
@Lost Scribe has kindly made a review of Lego's Silver Centurion which you can read here. Thanks Lost Scribe!


4. LEGO Sam Wilson (aka Falcon) Captain America.

This is one of the exclusive SDCC 2015 figure. Only 1,500 were released. If you hate knock off, you can get him on ebay for only $230.



5. LEGO Arsenal, aka Roy Harper.


He's also one of SDCC 2015 Exclusive figure. 


Decool already have him in #0233. You can have a look at my review here.


6. LEGO Yellow Jacket. Exactly same with LEGO.

Wayyy better than Lele's from #79057




7. LEGO Batman (unknown variant)




8. LEGO Deathstroke (unknown variant)




All the mini-builds, accessories and weapon collected from the characters in this set:


Quality of the plastic and print of the minifigures are superb as can be expected from Sheng Yuan:




Arsenal (Roy Harper) and Falcon (Sam Wilson) is must have in this set. Luckily just 2 exclusive SDCC minifigures were introduced in 2015 and now I've had both :)

Lele 79151 Jurassic World T-Rex

Continuation from my post here about the imitation/knock off Indominus rex (Lele 79151), we will have a look at his rival, T-Rex in this post.




As you can see from the packaging, the set number is same with Indominus Rex - 79151. That's why they are listed in pair on Aliexpress.



The packaging is same with Indomius Rex:




If you are interested to get the original dinosaur by Lego, it's from #75918, priced at £59.99 / $69.99 / 79.99€ / RM399.90. 


Just admit it. Most of us interested with this set just to have the T-rex (^_^)'. I got this Lele 79151 at roughly USD10. Loose T-rex being sold on Bricklink at USD46 (at least!)

source: Bricklink

This set is pre-assembled, so there is no manual included.



My 2 little kiddos more than happy to dismantle this guy. 



I forgot to take off the jaw from his head but every part looks 100% same with Lego. 



Last but not least, the one seated gyrosphere.




Simon Masrani. Lele issued this guy previously in their set of 8 #79058. 


Meh, I do realize Lele's printing is not the best but i wish they didn't repeat the figure.

Decool 7108 Bat-Tank

This is a copy/imitation/knock-off/you-name-it of Lego set #7787 (640pcs) The Bat-Tank: The Riddler and Bane's Hideout from year 2007! I got this set at RM80 (less than USD20!)


The price of this set when released in 2007 was $49.99 but 8 years later, the price had risen to $578.00(ebay). This is just insane.




More pictures of the box:




..and here's the original Lego #7787. Images from Google. I started buying Lego again in 2010 so there's no way i have this 2007 set :(

As you can see from the image above, Decool only imitate the Bat-Tank with Batman and The Riddler minifigures. (no Bane, no dirt bike and no gate)

The box is huge! The box size is 35cmx43cmx6cm so the volumetric weight for this set is about 1.5 kilos (^_^)'. If you are interested to have this set, please ask the seller to send this set without the box or you had to pay unnecessary weight because of the box size.

Size comparison of the box with #75900 and my fav Coca-Cola minifigure :)



Items in the box: Instructions booklet and lego parts in 7 sealed bags.




Actual weight of the lego parts and instructions booklet: Only 466gms!



Assembled set:










Size comparison with tumbler from Decool 7105/imitation Lego #7888





Printed parts. 


minor scratch on the windshield



Excess parts:



Decool completely overlooked this matter. They think their quality control are comparable to Lego. ahaha.  This set require 158 pieces (79 pieces x 2 side) of this "Link Tread" but they give 161 pieces in total (only 3 pieces extra) of which 9 pieces are totally damaged. So I had no choice but to use 6 pieces of damaged parts to complete this set :(.

some of defective Link Tread

I purposely assemble all 6 defective parts next to each other on one side and this is how it looks like. :(. The "chain" can still rotate but it looks ugly.



I wish to order this part from Bricklink but the price is too ridiculous. I really wish Decool fix this matter soon in the later batch. be more generous. give extra 10 or 20's of this part wont hurt them.



Minifigures in this set: Batman with dark blue cape and The Riddler with Jet Pack





Do not be surprised. Batman from this set is the third expensive after Batman from SDCC 2011 ($400.00) and SDCC 2014 ($380.00) :)
