Sheng Yuan Transformers Bumblebee & Optimus Prime Busts set SY7500 & SY7501 revealed



Sheng Yuan has recently revealed their Transformers Busts sets. 

These are the two that have been revealed:


Sheng Yuan Transformers Bumblebee Bust set SY7500


Sheng Yuan Transformers Optimus Prime Bust set SY7501

I think these busts look great, they look quite accurate and I think they did a great job with it. Sheng Yuan has been making a lot of Transformers sets lately not sure why.

WM Star Wars The Rise of Skywalker 8 Pack Minifigures Mix 3 set WM6082 revealed | The Mandalorian, Sith Trooper and more!


This is the third TROS set by WM. 

This is the list of minifigures in the set:

WM895 - Lieutenant Connix
WM896 - Poe Dameron
WM897 - Jannah 
WM898 - Rose Tico
WM899 - The Mandalorian
WM900 - Sith Trooper
WM901 - First Order Jet Trooper 
WM902 - Sith Jet Trooper

All the figures here are custom which is great. They look detailed and I especially like Mando here, he looks great. They also included some custom moulded blaster pieces which look nice. Overall great set of minifigures, I hope they make more detailed figures like these.

WM Star Wars The Rise of Skywalker 8 Pack Minifigures Mix 2 set WM6083 revealed | Sith Trooper, Knights of Ren & more!


This is the second set that WM has released for TROS movie, along with 4 figures from other Star Wars sets.

This is the list of minifigures in the set:

WM903 - Death Star Gunner
WM904 - Kazuda Xiono 
WM905 - Ap'Lek (Knight of Ren)
WM906 - Ushar (Knight of Ren)
WM907 - Sith Trooper
WM908 - Major Vonreg
WM909 - First Order Jet Trooper
WM910 - Imperial Transport Pilot

A great set of minifigures that only came in big Lego sets and great for army building. Nice to get 2 of the Knights of Ren and the Sith Trooper. Hopefully more brands join in the Star Wars Episode 9 hype.

Pogo Star Wars 8 Pack Minifigures set PG-8282 revealed | Mandalorian, Major Vonreg and more!


This is a new set of Star Wars minifigures revealed by Pogo recently. 

This is the list of minifigures in the set:

PG2235 - Mandalorian
PG2236 - Mandalorian
PG2237 - Mandalorian
PG2238 - Mandalorian
PG2239 - Zuckuss
PG2240 - Major Vonreg
PG2241 - Boolio
PG2242 - Aayla Secura

Neat set of minifigures, but if you could afford the Mandalorian Battle Pack set, I think you should just get the official Lego version.

Xinh Star Wars 6 Pack Transparent Minifigures set X0287 revealed



So this weird set of Star Wars figures was recently revealed by Xinh.

This is the list of minifigures in the set:

1503 - Darth Vader (with a medal)
1504 - Imperial Stormtrooper
1505 - Emperor Palpatine
1506 - Darth Revan
1507 - First Order Stormtrooper
1508 - R2-D2

Like I said, this is a weird set of minifigures. Not sure why they made it. I guess you can perceive them as holograms or Force Ghosts.
I wished they could have made the figures that actually make sense as a hologram or Force ghost like Princess Leia, Anakin Skywalker, Luke Skywalker, Yoda, etc. Though the Emperor is technically accurate as a hologram.
I think Xinh's intention wasn't to make a set of hologram minifigs or Force ghost minifigs but just transparent Star Wars minifigures. Hopefully we will get another set with accurate minifigures next time.

G Brand/Xinh Star Wars The Rise of Skywalker & The Mandalorian 8 Pack Minifigures set G0001 revealed


Regarding the name of this brand, nobody is really sure so I just called it G Brand since the logo looks like G. But it is most likely a part of Xinh since the style is very similar and a lot of people seem to think so. 
Here we have 8 minifigs from The Rise of Skywalker and The Mandalorian.

This is the list of minifigures in the set:

0001 - Poe Dameron
0002 - The Mandalorian
0003 - Sith Stormtrooper 
0004 - Cara Dune
0005 - Klatooinian Raider 
0006 - Kylo Ren
0007 - Astromech Droid
0008 - Klatooinian Raider 

All the figures in this set are not new, they are from various Star Wars sets released during the Triple Force Friday wave. 
The astromech droid is kinda a weird choice, I think they should've included Rey instead. We might get more 8 pack minifig sets in the future, maybe they might include Rey then.

WM Star Wars The Rise of Skywalker 8 Pack Minifigures set WM6081 revealed


WM is also making a set of minifigs to coincide with the release of Star Wars The Rise of Skywalker. And they are are looking good!

This is the list of minifigures in the set:

WM887 - Rey
WM888 - Finn
WM889 - Kylo Ren
WM890 - Dark Rey
WM891 - Lando
WM892 - Chewbacca (Solo: A Star Wars Story)
WM893 - Emperor Palpatine
WM894 - Baby Yoda (The Mandalorian)

The figures here are a different design from Lego's version. Dark Rey is definitely a nice addition and I can say the same thing for Baby Yoda but he definitely looks oversized. It's nice to see that WM is using the new hood piece introduced this year used on the Emperor. But Chewbacca looks kind of out of place here, I think they should have included another figure.


Kopf Star Wars The Rise of Skywalker & The Mandalorian 8 Pack Minifigures set KF6111 revealed


Another Star Wars minifigure set has been revealed, this time is by Kopf. It's a mix of minifigures from The Rise of Skywalker and The Mandalorian. 

This is the list of minifigures in the set:

KF1298 - Rey
KF1299 - Poe Dameron
KF1300 - Captain Cardinal
KF1301 - The Mandalorian
KF1302 - The Mandalorian
KF1303 - Boba Fett (Animated)
KF1304 - Female Mandalorian
KF1305 - Drabatan

There are some very good figures in here and some that we haven't gotten before like Captain Cardinal from the Phasma Star Wars novel and also the Mandalorians. Rey looks more detailed than the original figure which is great. 

It's great to see that more Star Wars figures are being made, they don't get made very often.

Koruit Star Wars 8 Pack Trooper Minifigures set KT1034 revealed | Sith Trooper, Darth Vader and more!


Nice to see a Star Wars set since Lego minifigure Bootleg brands don't make them very often. Koruit is really good with armor pieces and their moulds. A good example is one of the Avengers: Endgame sets which is set KT1026

This is the list of minifigures in the set:

XP262 - (Possibly) Clone Shock Trooper
XP263 - Imperial Shock Trooper
XP264 - First Order Executioner Trooper
XP265 - Sith Trooper
XP266 - Imperial Stormtrooper
XP267 - First Order Stormtrooper
XP268 - 501st Legion Clone Trooper
XP269 - Darth Vader


This set has the armor mould which covers only half of the upper body. The weapons that are included are accurate. Darth Vader's cape looks like it's made out of rubber. But anyway, really cool set, I am probably going to get it.

Sembo Block Iron Blood Heavy Equipment Type 052D Guided Missile Destroyer set 105711 revealed


Sembo Block has revealed a new warship build based on the Chinese People's Liberation Army Navy Surface Force Type 052D Guided Missile Destroyer. 
It has only a few features since it's mostly for display. For the display part, it comes with a stand. I also like that a helicopter can land at the back of the ship.

This is the Type 052D IRL for reference:


However, I could not find the ship with the specific hull number that the build is based on which is 154. I only found the image of the ship with the hull number 173 and a few others but it's the same type of destroyer. 


Sembo Block Speed Champions 4 Pack Decemeber 2019 Mix set 607057-607060 revealed | Lamborghini Veneno, Dodge Viper ACR and more!


A new Sembo Block Speed Champions 4 pack mix has been revealed. It's most likely the last set mix of the year. 

These are all of the images and the list of cars included in this set:


1) Lamborghini Veneno 




 Image of the car IRL for reference:



2) Dodge Viper ACR (GeigerCars)  




 Image of the car IRL for reference:



3) Ferrari 458 Speciale

4) Gumpert Apollo

This is a nice set of cars, all of which have not been made by Lego. They got the shaping and the details right but I wish they would've added a Dodge logo on the Viper ACR because it doesn't feel complete.

Mould King Star Wars UCS Imperial Star Destroyer set 13135 revealed | 11,000 pieces!



Mould King is back at it again, with another massive build. This time it's the UCS Imperial Star Destroyer. It has over 11,000 pieces which is over twice the amount of pieces of Lego's UCS Imperial Star Destroyer. 

Here are the pictures:





I am not exactly sure what the scale of this is going to be but it's definitely going to be bigger than Lego's version and that is already big enough. It could just be slightly bigger than Lego's version and all the pieces goes into the detailing but I am not sure. 
It's nice that they included 3 small ships to go with the massive star destroyer. You have a mini Tantive IV (just like the Lego version), Hammerhead Corvette and also a Nebulon-B Escort Frigate. I love how they look but I am not sure if they are going to be in scale or not since the star destroyer is bigger.

Thanks to YourWobb's Facebook page for the images.


Sheng Yuan Spider-Man Book (Spider-Man Collection) set SY1461 revealed



This is the second book collection set to be released by Sheng Yuan after the first book collection set which is the Iron Man Book set 1361.

Here are all the pictures of it:





There are total 52 minifigs in this set, some of them have never been made before like the Penny Parker minifig from Into the Spider-Verse. I don't know every figure in here but I think there are definitely others that haven't been made before in minifig form. The figures look quite detailed and the book cover with Spider-Man's mask looks good as well.

Lego Star Wars Encyclopedia exclusive Darth Maul revealed


The exclusive Darth Maul minifigure that will be included in a Lego Star Wars Character Encyclopedia that will be releasing in 2020 has been revealed by Amazon. The Darth Maul is based off his brief appearance in Solo: A Star Wars Story.

This is how the book looks like:



The figure looks great, I think it's really well done, but it would have been better if they gave him an Inquisitor lighsaber which is what appeared in the movie.
