Sheng Yuan SY279; Superman, Spiderman, Batman, Wolverine, Hulk, Thor, Ironman, Captain America

I expect this set will not be sold well as usual. It is a re-work of the earlier figure SY180 (roughly 2 years ago).

if I see this set are sold separately, I would choose a particular figure only. Ironman, definitely. and maybe Captain and Batman. That's all





 They use newer plate with rotating part  as baseplate.


To cut a long story short, here's the assembled figures:


Each come with weapon but i hate it when they pair each figure with unnecessary weapon/accessories for example, hulk with rifle. After all, I've had a lot of that equipment. So I just put them aside.



Last but not least let's have detail look on the minifigure:









One thing I noticed, all the figures come with dual sided faces except Captain. 

The only figure that interest me is the Ironman. He's Mark 19 - Tiger, designed by Crayonboi.




There should be red line on the mask but for some reason Sheng Yuan issue this figure with standard gold face cover. maybe they still have lot of this part in their storage lol.

I also noticed Hulk wear new pants in the AOU, with red  and "A" logo. Superman has severe print of the belt (maybe the worst figure in this set) and Batman.. hmm. I wish to see newer cowl for batman (with open chin and shorter ears) but maybe my expectations are too high. They still use the old cowl :(

Lego Avengers 2 Age of Ultron minifigures set by Duo Le Pin Toys DLP9005



Another new brand of knock-off Lego figures in the market, Duo Le Pin Toys! I'm super excited when i received this box. I wonder if the bigger packaging means something. Maybe more bricks for bigger/complex Lego build or more accessories.



I just realised at the side of the box shows there are 16pcs of stuff inside. That means there are 2 set of 8 minifigures in this box. meh..

The boxes:


What's inside each box: parts in sealed packaging and trading/game cards


Assembled figures with weapon/accessories:



Let's compare them with original Lego figure on the right. Allow me to use "DLP" as shortcut for Duo Le Pin.


1. Hulk - Dark purple pants with dark red pattern. DLP's Hulk has removable head and hair. I don't mind the removable parts but they still use Hulk's old hair style =(. I think spiked hair looks better with AOU's Hulk.

2. Black widow. DLP's figure has long hair while Lego use short hair.

3. Captain America - Detailed Suit.

4. Thor. Lucky he don't change his hair style in this movie >_<.

5. Mark 45 Iron Man. I wonder why DLP use robot face inside this suit.


Ooops! I only have five original Lego figures to compare. So for the rest of the figures, i only have their front and rear images.

6. Hakweye with black and dark red suit. Another disappointment. The original Lego has spiked hair.

7. Nick Fury with leather trench coat. The figure is 100% the same with the one that come in Lego set 76042 The SHIELD Helicarrier.


8. Ultron -5. Do you recall seeing him in Avengers 2: Age Of Ultron movie?


Thanks to @Celox, @anonymous and @RHM for these info: this Ultron is definitely not from the Avengers 2 movie but one of  animation The avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes comic variants.


I believe this is the very first imitation of hulk from this AOU variant (dark purple pants with dark red pattern). The torn and stretched shirt looks like a life jacket lol.

.. but, with the imitation figure, you can make him turn his head like this >_<


All figures might need an improvement, especially the hair parts but Mjölnir that come with Thor minifigure is far more better than Lego/other knock off brand.

Sheng Yuan SY207A-SY207D Black Widow, Captain America, Iron Man, Dr.Doom

Let me start my post with.. Sheng Yuan is the best! Sorry, I'm not a fan boy but just look at these figures!

They are from Sheng Yuan so the plastic quality is not an issue. The printing also..superb! None of the figures have the same design with original Lego.

We already see so many version of Captain America (linklink), Iron Man Mark 17 "Heart Breaker" armor (link), and Black Widow but these guys are different variant. Design on the torso is more detail.



These guys come from these set: 


The parts are sealed in the usual plastic packaging and come with trading/game cards.

I do not usually assemble bricks that come with the set (only minifigures interest me) but my 5-yo son insist to build this set so here they are:





I'm looking forward to Age of Ultron minifigures by Sheng Yuan =p

Dargo No.842A-842H Transparent Super Heroes Minifigures

Looking for another variant of Super Heroes? Dargo offers them in transparent parts:

Super Heroes in this set:
Captain America, Hulk, Thor, Wolverine, Iron Man, Batman, Spiderman, and Superman.



I do not have Dargo previous version (non transparent) of Super Heroes but here's their Super Heroes box cover.




Assembled figures:


Do you notice anything? My spiderman comes only with one hand and my superman comes with 2 left leg!

Even the weapons are transparent.


 Close up of individual figure:



I wonder why the printing is really bad. Is it because of them using a cheaper machine or because of cheap ink? My Mark 6 Iron Man looks like battle damaged variant, with scratch torso and all. Printed line on Wolverine and Thor front torso also is not sharp. 

Oh i forgot to explain about the plastic. Most of the figures have loose arm/leg/hip. So don't expect too much from this figure. Unless i'm the very unlucky one who received them in such quality. However, looking at their previous release (Link), these quality is expected - bad printing, loose parts =(.

I have another set of Dargo Super Heroes minifigure set (# 844) to review. I expect the quality will be the same. Who wanna bet? =p
