This is my first ever ciplak lego I bought from Taobao, the famous online shopping website from China. Was very excited about the arrival of it, however delayed due to my absency at home when the courier service arrived. I picked it up 2 days later from the shop and can't stop myself from starting to assemble it!
First, the minifigs.
As written in their introduction page, the minifigs from Sluban have significant improved from the Lego version.
The main difference with the Lego minifigs is, their heads and grips can tilt vertically up to 15°, thus enabling them to make some pose previously impossible with Lego minifigs. For instance,

I have put a comparison between the Sluban's minifig vs Shengyuan's minifig (where its quality is almost as good as Lego's) into the gallery below:
Then it will be the unboxing and assembly of the race car itself.
Not much to be said, but the quality of the build is notably lower than the genuine Lego bricks. Some of the bricks don't fit well, some too tight and you can always see gaps between the neighbouring bricks.

But alas, it worth the money! For Lego models with the same number of pieces, I think it cost 4x more than all these lego-compatible brands.
Most importantly is, the satisfaction after the completion!
And now it's time to take the car for a ride!
If you're interested to get one for yourself, feel free to contact me as I bought an extra set.
