Decool 0211 - 0216 Super Heroes;

I have yet to make a review on this set but it looks so familiar. not sure if i keep this post as draft for too long or I have been confused with the same figure that may have been issued by other brands.  Hmm.. Wonder Woman  has been released by SY in SY266, Green arrow in SY259 (with hood on), Bizarro in SY187, Martian Manhunter in SY266 and by Decool in Decool 0131 (both of different variant), and Bane issued by Bozhi in set 98044 (i don't have it).

Decool always include a catalog in their set. For the latest catalog, you may refer one from set 0217 - 0222.

Each figure comes with a transparent super jumper:

It's the latest cowl!

Starting with Supergirl from set 0199 - 0204, Decool issue female torso with shaped waist.

It is very unlikely I would have Bizarro from SDCC 2012 Exclusive :(. As I recall, Bizarro should have reversed "S" for the logo. That's why i prefer Bizarro from SY187. The "S" logo is not reversed in this set too but the S logo does not look as bold as this.

Here's front and rear view of Bizarro issued by Decool in this set. No original figure for comparison. 

Last but not least, Bane. This is the most interesting figure in this set.

Printing on the torso and the head is 100% same with original Lego figure. However the additional mask and tan coat as accessories made this figure is better than the original >_<. It's a must have add-on!

Sheng Yuan SY266; Dr. Strange, Batzarro, The Collector

As you can see, Sheng Yuan's version lack of 2nd face. That's why i prefer the one from Decool (link). 

I'm only interested with Dr.Strange figure in this set. For Storm, Taskmaster, and The Collector, i think the one made by Decool are much better (at least with dual sided faces) >_<

Dargo Lego Super Heroes Set of 8

I've heard about this brand before.. but previously they issued the same figure that SY, Decool and Lele already imitate. So, i just ignored them. However these newly released figure by them (Dargo) caught my attention:

Characters in these set:
- Wolverine
- Ghost Rider
- Snake Eyes
- Iron fist
- Bane
- Storm Shadow
- Silver Surfer
- Martian Manhunter

I'm not sure if the nickname for some of the character really exist or it's from parallel universe. Bane also known as "Bain" lol.

The box is bigger than the usual box the usual lego minifigure (by SY, Decool or Lele) come with. One of Decool's Iron Man Mark 1 box for scale.

Not sure why they use bigger box. No doubt that all these stuff will fit nicely in average size minifigure box.

I'm very disappointed with this set. I think Dargo wanna move a step ahead by offering new character that no other brand issued before but the quality of these figures is not acceptable. The plastic is soft so it's very fragile - parts easily detached from the torso. yup, everything - headpiece, arm, hand. I'm not sure if this brand is any better than JLB.

Not only the accessories is not relevant/complete, but also the printing quality on the torso/leg assembly sucks big time. Have a look at this Silver Surfer. Figure on the right is from SY's Fantastic Four (link). 

SY's figure has better colour and at least come with surfer board. Click on the picture and see for yourself details of printed design on Dargo's torso.

Initially i'm super excited to have Ghost Rider, Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow but i revise my expectation. Ghost Rider don't come with any chain and the headpiece doesn't fit the character. I think Dargo should use grey coloured head piece (skull pattern) combined with flaming transparent-red  hairpiece. Found this image of Lego Ghost Rider in Brickipedia:

I don't want to comment anything on wolverine. I don't know why he's wearing lipstick. =(

I would like to keep Storm Shadow and Snake Eyes (some of my fav charatcer in G.I Joe) but look at Storm Shadow's torso: =(

From these 8 figures, Dargo imitate 2 of them from Lego. I have original lego  Iron Fist to compare (original Lego on right) but i don't have Bane from Batman 1.

So, what do you think about this set? will you get them too?
