Sheng Yuan SY6486-SY6487: Transformers Optimus Prime and Soundwave Transforming Mech Builds Preview

SY6486 - Autobot Optimus Prime


SY6487 - Decepticon Soundwave

Intersting, so they transform without needing to be rebuilt. This is great!

I previewed a Bumblebee from the same line too.

Thanks to Ken for the heads up!

Sembo 601133: Snowglobe Style Proposal Ring Container with Minifigure Couple Preview

A cute way to propose to your significant other? I would recommend using real Lego instead though if you wanna pop the question.


Seems like they're still using the traditional minifigure design here instead of their new Sembofigs.

(Not sure which set includes these Sembofigs.)
Goodbye minifigures from Sembo? Seems like they have started to release their own type of minifigures. For now, I'll be calling them Sembofigure or Sembofig.

This is most probably due to Lego not allowing other companies to use their Lego minifigure designs, and they have legal rights to do that.

I'm personally glad to see that Sembo, and other Chinese brands, are starting to innovate and stray away from ripping off Lego instead. I know we all love the minifigure design and having new type of figures like these Sembofigs won't fit nicely with our current collection, but it's better that than losing Sembo as a brand altogether.

I wonder though if, like my initial assumption, that Sembo will be focused on new, original set designs while Sheng Yuan will focus on the knockoffs.

Kopf KF6115: Batman with New Cowl, Iron Man with Nanotech Weapons, and More Marvel/DC Minifigures Preview

KF1332 - Batman
KF1333 - Batman
KF1334 - Superman
KF1335 - Red Robin
KF1336 - Batman (Purple)
KF1337 - Godspeed (?)
KF1338 - Iron Man MK 50
KF1339 - Iron Man MK 85

Not sure which variant of Godspeed that is, but he has a Batman logo. Couldn't find him through Google Search, so let me know if you know him.

Liking the Iron Man accessories too, but at the same time I'm tired of seeing MK50 and MK85.
The Batman figures here though are interesting cause of their new cowls!

Here in the Philippines, quarantine rules have been changing and some malls have been re-opening. Greenhills has delayed their opening though to make sure everything's good before people come in (which is a great idea, kudos to the mall admin). I'm not sure if that also means though that AngeloMarcus Greenhills will open soon too. For those who can't wait though, I recommend messaging them in Facebook to ask if you can buy online!

XINH XH1157-XH1160: Various Iron Man & War Machine Hulkbusters Preview

XH1157 - Hulkbuster (Age of Ultron MK44)
XH1158 - Hulkbuster 2.0
XH1159 - War Machine
XH1160 - Black-Gold Hulkbuster

They should've made a blue & red War Machine Hulkbuster instead to match his most recent Iron Patriot-colored Hulkbuster-ish suit.

That Black Gold Hulkbuster could also be considered a Heavy Duty Iron Man Hulkbuster from the comics.

The sets remind me of a mix between the Decool/JiSi Hulkbuster and the PRCK Hulkbuster (which isn't so good).

XINH X0282: Anansi the Spider, Knull: God of the Symbiotes, and Other Spider-Man Minifigures Preview

XH1462 - Peter Parker

XH1463 - Silk

XH1464 - Captin America x Spider-Man

XH1465 - Kwaku Anansi

XH1466 - Knull

XH1467 - Werewolf Spider-Man

XH1468 - Hydra x Spider-Man

XH1469 - The Amazing Spider

Another Spider-Man set. Is Peter the new Iron Man for minifigure brands? Lol! My biased opinion though is that I like it cause I love Spider-Verse, even before the movie came out. 

Captain America and Hydra Spider variants aren't really "canon" though, while the others are based on alternate universe Spider-Man. Except Knull who is a welcome addition to any Marvel collection; afaik, he's a new villain that has something to do with the Symbiote.

Oh and yes, that's Anansi the Spider (at least he's based on that) from one of those stories we all read in elementary school!

Huge thanks to Arnold for the heads up!

Oh and if you can't get enough of Spider-Man, check out Sheng Yuan's Spider-Book. Some of the figs in this set are actually already there.
