Sheng Yuan SY318 Famous Heroes Assemble - Batman Riddler Chase

Marvels has Avengers Assemble - so, DC need to have Famous Heroes Assemble. It is just another "same" name that SY put on its box as there are actually many other sets with similar name but not similar contents. This set is actually a copy of Lego Batman : The Riddler Chase 76012 set which includes a comic book (but not in the bootleg). Funny thing is SY piece count is 330+ while Lego listed 304+pcs. Well, it;s a year late, consider it delayed gratification as with the Space Wars sets.

Where;s the comic book SY??!

Riddler, Batman and the Flash

Riddler's dragster's wing at the back is loose

Rockets launcher at the back

The Fast and the Furious 7.1 (yes, include Flash)

Compare to the previous SY302 Bat mobile, the SY318 is wider

SY303 Iron Man Armor disassembly platform

This set has been out for quite awhile, undecided to buy it as it is pricey for a small set, although the piece count are 217pcs. Anyway, decided to get it finally. SY is already known for its "not so tight" fitting (vs. Lego), hence due to the design of this set is really flimsy if one is to play with it, it can easily fall apart, especially the big circular part. Nice for display. I don't have the full red Iron man that came with this set, but it is kinda familiar.....

Start copying, machine!

TAA DAA! Now there's two of me.

The Red color in this iron man is similar with the Avenger Assemble Iron man without the torso gold. I think this is Mk3, while the one with the torso gold bit is Mk4?45? ...

Sheng Yuan Ghima (Chima) SY139 and SY140

Ghima - yes, "Ghima" is what Sheng Yuan (SY) named it, with a G. Believe these 2 sets are really for play base on the illustration picture at the back of the box. (I am prepare for the loss of parts - good thing it is bootlego). SY always comes out with good quality Chima sets. Had some fun time playing with my kids using the Chis as rewards. Somehow, not that easy to control the direction of those 2 Wheeler.

SY Chima set always will not disappoint - good quality play time as well

Somehow the gameplay excitement do not last long. Lego bricks are still more on the build than play side.

Sheng Yuan Space Wars "Tie Interceptor"

Sheng Yuan "Space Wars" sets are Star Wars Clones releases -  SY309, SY310 and SY312 are all named "Tie Interceptor" on the box. All are bootlegs from similar original Lego set.

In actual SY 309 is General Grievous Wheel Bike with Obiwan but without General Grievous (unlike the original set from Lego),  Comes together with quite a number of Technic parts, quite a confusing built with 272+ pcs. 3 small part missing, do not know if it is due to my side or not, but no big deal as the extra (different) parts from this and previous set can replace them. Somehow the instruction is a bit wrong. Like the way the wheel spins. Although having the most piece counts between the 3 boxes, but the finished model is not that big.

Obiwan and Darth Revan

SY310 is the Vulture Droid with a Neimoidian™ Warrior mini figure plus a Buzz Droid™ and a Pilot Battle Droid™ figure. Come with a few Technic parts but lots of stickers to stick.Total piece count 221+ pcs and equipped with two spring loaded shooter. Did not encounter any missing parts. Maybe due to the Technic joints, the wings is a bit wobbly but still will not fall off.

Finally SY312 is the V-Wing Starfighter with V-Wing Pilot™ and an Astromech Droid™ from Star Wars: Episode III Revenge of the Sith. With just 211+ pcs, some stickers and no Technic parts, but it is the biggest model when completed. This set is also equipped with two spring loaded shooter. Quite solid for a SY, and all parts are available and intact.

There are total of  700+pcs of parts for the 3 boxes combined, but it just took half a day for my kid to finish building all of them. When the interest is there, things gets done faster. There's also SY311 Battle on Saleucami set compatible with Lego 75037, which I got it a week after (pre GST day - damm long Queue due to I got in from a dept store). Having just 189+ piece count, hence it is cheaper than the rest of the "tie interceptor' series.
At first I find this set a bit small and sort of like a battle pack, but somehow Lego did not make this as a battle pack set. After assembly, turn out the vehicle is quite nice.  It features a speeder (approx 5") with new spring-loaded shooter, a STAP and a Droid defense station. Minifig includes a BARC Trooper™ with blaster, 2 Battle Droids™ and 2 Super Battle Droids™. Nice add on to my Star Wars  collection, and for someone who want to build an army of droids, this is a cheap option. Somehow when Lego gives droids as part of the mini figures in a set, we really feel a bit cheated. For me, droids do not really falls into the mini figure category.

Got money? Can buy an Army
