Gotta say, Thor's new wheels at least look cooler than what he was driving in the 70s.

are they knockoffs of an actual dbz minifig product or just legofied dbz characters but in bootleg quality?

I wouldn't mind decently-priced dbz minifigs tbh, unless it's ONLY gokus/saiyans

I have no idea. I had no intention of buying this (especially after already spending far too much money on the same day buying actual, non-bootleg stuff), I just saw it and took a photo.

these seem to be it, or similar and at a bit under a buck a pop I'm tempted to check them out. hmmm.

plus, well, it's potentially lego-compatible goku hair. I know there's the exo-force line from years back with the weird rubbery anime hair but this is bona-fide, genu-wine goku hair

edit: jesus christ going down this rabbit hole and I think there might be minifigs for almost every single DBZ character period, I keep finding more images with like a hundred characters on it like this one

I don't think this is a bootleg at all. The box looks genuine, and the writing is in Japanese rather than the more bootleg-usual Chinese. This is seemingly legit, it's just Japan's love of transforming robots in action.

Why do so many bootlegs have that light up LED in the chest?

As cheaply made as some of them are I'm surprised they sprung for electronics, even as cheap as that would be.

because it's dirt-rear end cheap to just wire a LED to a watch battery, and it makes the product seem more legitimate, meaning more sales

This might sound like a stupendously stupid question, but seeing those unique mini-figs on Ali-baba, how does shopping on there work? The last time I looked you couldn't order one knock off lego kit. You had to buy them in some absurd number. Or was I looking at some other site as this is called AlliExpress?

Alibaba is a wholesaler, Aliexpress is aimed at consumers. The product is the same.
