BEST LOCK brand name summore. Companies trying to hit and run the Lego community profits. I almost gave in to buy that military set at its price of RM 159.90...Metrojaya also have em.

The quality and the density of the plastic bricks also play important factor to make a strong lock between bricks adn joints.

Good deal, I'm sure you would have bought the entire lot!! Fr eBay?

well spoken there

hi guys
i'm back from Hari Raya holiday
wishing all a very Selamat Hari Raya too all muslim here
Maaf Zahir Batin

Good info guys on the Legoland sets.
i guess we just have to wait for it to be fully open,
together with its Legoland Hotel

looking forward for those 5 number series
wishful thinking, a boy could always dreams right

for those who into modular sets
ENVY! wanna buy it, but thinking there will be no space...
i only hv the mini modular tho,
super cute!

Sorry guys the generic china stuff is cheap rubbish. And at a High price too. Everything falls apart easily.

And unfortunately, k-reo is also not good quality too.

My son labelled KREO as best-lock when he got stucked putting it together. So bloody irritating even for a 4 years old. Lego still winrar!

Fuyooh..."This product is officially licensed by the U.S Army"

i bought some Enlighten sets. They look good when assemble, but the part qualiti is quite bad but not as bad as some other brands.
and when mix wif lego piece its too glaring contrast.

however i salvage the hinges/connectors those item that when u build liao u cannot see one.
now i got 3 big boxes of enlighten did not unbox. dun plan to also... i feel not worth to buy despite cheap price cos no enjoyment.

Guys,

After watch the below video on the new Technic set 9398, i found the this owner mentioned the original motor tag along is not powerful enough for a crawler.



And this another video show tht this set has been turn to XL motor. May i know any sifu here got any idea how to mod it? Is it just get a XL motor and replace with he original motor then everything settle or need to get other part together with the motor?

very true

KREO minifig comes with ball joint but overall the building bloks are like some MEGABLOKs set. Marketed under strong brandname but not made from high quality materials like LEGO. Some KREO blocks have "wave" on the surface which is common on ciplak China brands.

i read a lot of stuff on the net, there is pages u can refer, but im not too sure how to myself, coz their instructions are very vague, btw the cost of 1 of those babies r around 800 now, sigh so ecp, ill b waiting till i go HK next year to get it i guess....along with all the gundam stuff....

anyways.....any new legos set to spam?guys after raya d, kaka some one show us ur loots!!!!

That one from US Army...this one look like from Saddam.



Reminds me of Army Men 3D game. Plastic men Real Heroes.

just in case anyone is still looking for darth maul shirtless polybag, there are still a few units available in york house in bsc. nice shopkeeper also gives 10% discount

@kenhew: I got CC (MISB) for about AUD$700 from a Garage Sale. It's expensive but I bought it anyway cause market price for the set is about 2.5 times what I paid. You can still find some on Bricklink (one was going for ~USD$1400 MISB but box damaged)

@vey99: I know how it feels. I bought about 2.6k bricks through Lego.com and BL totalling about USD$600 to build my MOC. Lego.com was cheaper for me but a lot of parts are not listed at all. Toys-U-Want on bricklink offers a lot of sets at affordable prices.

@tribalsun: Thank you I saved up some money doing my internship. If you want you could start with the more recent ones since they are affordable.

@Gizzi69: It was from a Garage sale in Melbourne, had my friend check it out and buy them for me. I bought 5770 (Lighthouse Island), 7347 (Highway Pickup), 5771 (Hillside House) and 7346 (Seaside House) all for < AUD$300 shipping included.

thanks for the heads-up on that. been looking for the Maul and only saw it on eBay. sapu-ed two of them and only two more left.
FYI the 10% discount applies to certain Lego products and not all of them.

Why should a big retailer like metro jaya selling rubbish!

Is obvious their purchaser NEVER play LEGO b4.. (& never even try to assemble best-lock too!!! )

... on top of that, the best-lock salesperson must be damn slick!

I went to KLCC the yesterday and found out that the minifigures left about 6 pac left...luckily there's a galaxy patrol and aztec warrior for me
