We eating good this year Tigerbros, got a Cobi remake of Tiger 131, these three beauts in recently and one more of Tiger 007 on the way.
Still devastated by the loss of my mega collection. Not digging the prices I've seen so far to try and replace them. I need Call of Duty to get popular again, Jesus.
>>11764229My condolences anon. China does offer KOs of CoD-style figures, recently released some pretty good ones like pic related. Been a while though since they've put out some new vehicles, hoping they have some in the pipeline.
>SPASzing out
L*go doesn't make it easy to do military MOCs, what with the lack of army green as a colour and all. Been taking advantage of the local liquidation centre routinely stocking Peizhi's War Power line to stock up on suitable parts and it's been a fun challenge to build something new with them. Pic related was a modified version of a War Power build but I've since done a couple more original designs; currently working on a biplane transport inspired by the venerable An-2, not sure if I'll need to do another parts run yet.
How is the QC on the aliexpress rebrickables? How likely am I to get a bunch of missing pieces?
>>11767411>>11767411Nice figs, I've been using wobrick/brickwith to get bricks but can't find a store to buy lego style minifigs, do you guys know any good place to buy fig parts and cmf type figs? i really looking for things with a scifi or monster vibe, I found some on ali express but mostly is just soldiers/cops.
>>11768344 I do a lot of Ali purchases. myself.. Which is where I got this fella. It was a hell of a lot but still better than buying a set I didn't want.

I have to say I really feel sad that LEGO never gave us any StarCraft. I was really glad when I found these on Ali - I wish that there was more StarCraft stuff out there.
>>11766984>>11767411That mummy mini-fig is so cool>>11768692>POV: trying to get that location of NV with the statues shaking handsIt's tragic that Mega got Besthda licenses at the very end of its existence. I would've even been down for Starfield sets.
>>11768847 Ali *does* have some nice 40k knockoff lego
Finished my An-2 derivative, have to say I'm fairly pleased with it.
>>11769896The plane is 100 percent Peizhi pieces; didn't want to bother with picking up more sets so I was limited some by parts selection and quantity on hand. If it wasn't a chore to get a bunch of them I'd smooth out the top of the fuselage with more curved slopes but we'll see if that's a future possibility. It's not much for play, the landing gear is a bit fragile and accessing the interior isn't easy but overall I'm satisfied.
Todd's getting back into building block stuff
I got targeted by BrickWars2's ad campaign on instagram hard and decided to fall for it. It took about 3 weeks to finally arrive and I started on it Friday night. I've never built anything but a handful of megabloks sets as kid that weren't official LEGO releases so it was new for me.
quality was pretty alright, there were some parts with flash and the 1x1 vertical hook pieces have a really shitty mold so theres a huge step where the mold halves meet. theres a few questionable engineering choices that make parts of the completed model flimsy in places
these thin 1x1 side stud pieces are pretty shitty too, some of gray color ones wouldn't even fully click into place
>>11773701Are all of the heads, chests, and detailing just stickers? That looks so bad....The builds kind of make them look like minimates, otherwise.
forgot image
>>11777373I've seen other off-brands make similar pieces, and not have that problem. Despite the number of 3P brick companies, there are only a few actual manufacturers, and maybe the manufacturer for that brand is just not one of the better or more consistent ones.
anyone know where i can order some custom notlego parts? for delivery to uk
