Sembo block - Musical and Animals

Today try my hand at building these micro blocks, woh, not easy. Maybe because the instruction is small, hence easily mistake where the studs will go. That is why the box stated suitable ages is at14+. Lego bricks just 6, some even listed 5. As usual, those places that are hold by single studs comes off easily, but, the finish design is good.

Sembo block - Angry Birds

I am too busy with CNY preparation, really got no time to do posting. Also, the street peddler is in New Year mood, selling mostly CNY stuff (crackers for kids), hence not much new stuff comes over my side. Anyway, got these Sembo Angry birds micro blocks from a store nearby. Piece count of each box varies from around 300+ to 400+, but the price are the same. I find the assembling not that easy (maybe due to the block size), but my kids able to manage it around an hour (more or less). Depend on the shape of the bird, those that shaped like and egg is much stronger (scientifically), while the triangular (chuck) is not that strong. Got all the birds, but only buy the King Pig.

Sembo block - Pokemons

Sembo blocks - micro block following the nano block designs, or diamond block from LOZ. My son loves Pokemon, so, got all the available Pokemons on the shelf for him. I do not know in actual how many Pokemon designs were released by Sembo, but I do see some other releases from the internet. Sembo is said to be from Seng Yuan, although quality is acceptable, still those single stud connection is loose. The outer box shows clearly what's inside, so not to worry.
Eevee, Pikachu, Pokemon ball, Bulbasaur
Squirtle, Gengar, Caterpie, Lapras

Sembo Block Micro sized building block

Sembo Block -  a new brand to me. But I read from the net they are a.k.a Sheng Yuan, but copy Nano block as well as Loz designs. Plastic wise, good. Fitting, good also, but if one is not going to take the finish model apart, recommended to glue the small single stud connection portion as they will easily come off.
I bought the Micro Block Animals and Pokemon releases. Those that have bought LOZ will see some similarity. Here's the animals first.....
What does the fox say!
The neck can be straighten, but the small ball joint kinda weak to carry the head
This 2 sets is cute

SY208 Heroes Assemble - Big Blaster Gun sets

SY now like to come out bigger (pricier) box set with previously un-released Mini figures. The minifigs variant are good, my kids love the gun, but they are just a bit too loose to manipulate. One can secure the bricks with glue if wants. Searching from the net, seems like I do not see any Lego with this gun assembly. Is this "ori" SY creation?
Magneto
Dark-tor DOOM (most solid among the four)
Black Bolt
Phoenix - and her water gun (the most fragile - my son says its a giant blow horn)
Good mini figures variant
