SY662 Transformer 5

Better representation of the latest Transformer 5 vs DLP's? Up to individual preference.
For the Glory of war.
For my world to live, Earth must die
I am Bumblebee, your oldest friend...I will lay down my life for you
Lockdown - look familiar?
Heavily armed Hound.
Drift with a big cannon
Bubblebee variant? Anyway, he is (suppose to be) Crosshairs
The adorable Sqweeks (actually kind of a mini build rather than a minifig)
Cade
Optimus is taller in this SY release. Nice sword and shield. Definitely Optimus has a better head detail vs DLPs - those purple eyes!. Bubblebee looks better on DLPs (although minus the red Autobot insignia). Hound still do not have the Red Cross. One can mix and match both set to make a better minifigs. By the way, Sqweeks size is bigger compare to the other Bots in this set (proportionally not matching when put together).

  1. Printing looks good. How's SY quality these days? Still among the top brands? I have not bought any bootleg minifigs for months.

    I'm buying Cade tho, he looks good.

    1. Hi, long time no hear.
      SY is still among the top brands, but seems like (looks like) they have different supplier as some releases are really not that good compare to others even though they are under the same SY brand. This T5 release printing detail is good, although no side prints

    2. Yea long time didn't comment, but I drop by regularly.

      My shops here aren't bringing much new bootleg stuff. Nothing at all from POGO, Xinh, Elephant or Lepin minifigs. Haven't seen the new Enlighten minifigs here too. Nothing much to look forward to and I'm shopping less frequently.

      Speaking of Enlighten, I was browsing this on another page while typing:

      Enlighten is trying new things. Check out those vines, leaf bricks and those crazy minifigs ... dafuq :D

      Those animal minifigs and the old man is not bad tho *LOL*

    3. Not many preferred choice over my area too, unless I go to them expensive department store. I do like to get some XINH and POGO minifigs which is coming out the most variants, too bad it is not selling over here.
      The new Enli minifigs you mentioned from Taobao is actually base on an 80's Chinese Demi god cartoon - Calabash brothers. SY came out this before, think never came to Msia.
      Looks like it came with builds of some Demons and not just minifigs. Same preference, those animals and the old man is good, especially the Calabash hanging on the vines.
