Sheng Yuan SY 256 The Simpsons

My favourite TV Series of all time. Watched all 26 series.. yup, every single one of them.. and to date Lego only issued 2 sets for this theme - 71006 The Simpsons House and The Simpsons Collectible Minifigures. 

source: Bricklink

...and look at what SY try to imitate here:



I don't usually assemble the bricks included in the box but for this set, they are the accessories and each character have different build. 









For comparison, lets put aside all the bricks/accessories:


Please note that we have 2 different Lego variant of each figure (except Nelson and Milhouse; they only come from Collectible Minifigures set)

minifigures from 71006 The Simpsons House

minifigures from The Simpsons Collectible Minifigures

I will have the figures assembled in this order for the comparison: Sheng Yuan's (left), minifigures from The Simpsons Collectible (center) and minifigures from The Simpsons House (right). You will find that for SY figure, they mix the body parts. Some character will have head from Lego Collectible Minifigures but torso of minifigures from Simpsons House and vice versa. 











As expected from Sheng Yuan, they always don't bother to paint the arm.. so all the figures (Bart, Homer, Nelson, Milhouse) looks like they are wearing sleeveless shirt. I'm very sure SY can do it (print/paint the arm) just like they did on Drax from SY 257 Guardians of The Galaxy but for these Simpsons figure, no paint/printing on the arm of all the figures.

I also think its kinda weird for Maggie to have short leg, same design with Bart, Nelson and Milhouse because she's still a baby =p. In Simpsons TV Series, Maggie don't walk, but crawl. lol

Oh hey, one more thing. I know some of you guys like the usual SY's movable  short leg but for this series, SY use the same leg assemble with Lego - fix and unmovable. 

I'll have another set of clone Simpsons figure by JLB to review soon!
