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 :(

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

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?

Lego SDCC Phoenix by Decool

Just got mine today!

but i'm more interested with the catalog inside the box. =p

Just like Raiden and Anonymous reader comment before.. Decool will release The Punisher, Electro, Red Skull, Taskmaster, Bulleye and Falcon! All can be seen in the first page of catalog above.

In the 2nd page of the catalog, they have Decool Ninja Turtles. but in set of 8! All Ninja Turtles come with new outfit. I cannot wait to have ALLLLL!!!! ARGHHHHH

As usual, Decool don't have unnecessary brick/weird accessories for each minifigure. This is what inside each box:

and these are the minifigures..
