I'm sorry but $100 is definitely way too much for a single minifig, no matter how good it is

Yeah agree. Simple yet effective design is what makes Lego style so distinct. I really appreciate the customs that have a good balance of detail and restraint

They're cool, but it really annoys me when people compare them to official stuff. Like yeah, of course Lego wouldn't do that stuff and if you want them to then your lego set will be more expensive. I don't need a new, overly detailed mold for stormbreaker, doctor strange's magic, mysterio's helmet, or Captain America's helmet or every single little thing on a character

I'll always prefer purist minifigures. Not only is it more impressive to make a good looking and accurate minifigure with nothing but existing pieces, but it's also more fun and feels more like a true LEGO experience, and the scavenger hunt for certain pieces and colours will always be a memory from my childhood. That said I'll buy a custom if it's a character I really like that doesn't have a minifigure, and isn't expensive as hell.

You know how you did the An idea right there in the new year since we’ve got updated many figures for the original six van for everyone except from Hawkeye you could use them to do the circle scene or you could do like a full diary Stormbreaker me on that one so I think it’ll be really cool

I wish companies that make pad prints would restock their items, the products are so expensive some people may not have the money to buy it at that moment, but because the figures are limited, they sell out before a chance is gotten to get the money. Plus at the moment some pad print companies don't ship to the UK

@nathanielk7415 Жыл бұрын

I think that FireStar's are the best on the market currently because their priority is making the print design actually look like lego. If they were pad printed they would be perfect and you wouldn't be able to tell they are custom at all. I don't like the customs that print on places lego don't print and have all those extra bits, for me the goal is to look like real lego

I want my custom minifigures to be detailed but still fit in with the rest of the Lego system. That means no printing on the back or inside of the legs and no printing on the side of the torso or hands. I like custom pieces as long as they’re made in the classic cartoony Lego style with no tiny details. Recognizable but in a simplified style. I want the figure to look like something that Lego would have released in a cmf. If I want a 1:1 replica of a character and all their accessories I’ll just by one of those hyper detailed action figures.

Orrrr you could buy the 90¢ figures. I have a lot of them and most of them are decent quality for 90¢. Not only that but I got 2 goblins, the one with the purple on it, and not. I got custom head mold for the helmet, and a custom molded glider for both of them.

Love the purist version, and the Firestar Toys version I've already seen on their website and there it looked like it wasn't UV-printed, but with this one would instantly dump that hood and replace it with the purist one. The 100$ one looks cool too, but it's WAYYY to expensive, I can got more rare figures for lower price here in the Netherlands, like the TASM 2 Electro polybag and the Ravagar Outfit Rocket polybag, but it better blands in with the other LEGO figures...

Honestly, I thought the design on both customs is just too busy. From a distance, all the detail just meshes together and indistinguishable. Part of the lego style is the simplification and cartoony stylization that goes into adapting designs to Minifigures, as opposed to just recreating them as 100% accurately as possible. That's just my opinion tho, obviously its a very skillful and detailed job that was done on both of them. I'm just personally not too much of a fan

@Ochoduckie Жыл бұрын

The price point is the biggest barrier to entry. I can kinda justify $40 for a firestar when the UV printing looks good (the Moon Knight series looked much better than the Goblin run imo), but $100 with zero build and a couple accessories can’t be justified, no matter how perfect it is. It’s basically hitting “F*** You Money” status.
