Wow, I think it's pretty cool, if they work the same as LEGO, and fit on LEGO studs, then this is awesome, they're cheaper, so you don't waste $16 for one minifigure.

There's something slightly off with certain details, though, some proportions are a bit messed up.  Looking at them, they feel a little wrong, a little disturbing.

I've been seeing a lot of these on eBay lately.  Personally I wouldn't go for it for various reasons. I have to agree with Squid that some do have this weird look about them, especially the face.  Other ones I've seen (though I think they were from different sellers) look even worse, and are just cheap-looking and downright hideous. 

They're obviously not even trying to make them look different from LEGO's official minifigs, I wonder how long they'll be allowed to sell them before getting shut down for copyright infringement...

It is very odd that this business even exists...

Some of the printing is higher quality than others. Green Lantern and Shazam look okay, while there's a black suit Superman (like last year's SDCC promo) which looks totally wrong; the printing is completely out of proportion.

I'm not sure whether I'd want to buy one. I mean, it's like having a box of eggs, but one of them's really a carved-up potato. It still looks like an egg, but it'll taste of potato. Same with the minifigs - if you had a Justice League lineup and they were all official LEGO except Shazam, it'd feel...disingenuous.

If a high enough quality one came along, and it was a reasonable price (for which read 'super cheap') then maybe I'd be tempted, but these just feel weird.

I feel like the Black Widow one is slowly absorbing my soul and turning it into double-negative energy, which it'll use to destroy the psychic membrane of the universe and render every living being incapable of eating salad.

Ye gods, there are Star Wars ones as well.

The interlocking system isn't protected as of 2008, but I'm pretty sure the minifigure design still is.

Ouch, I just now noticed the legs.

The Flash one seems to be the highest quality, and at £3 I'm sorely tempted to give it a go to see what these are actually like. Plus, it'd save buying the £26 set, but does anyone FIRMLY think I shouldn't do such a thing?

(btw I may not even anyway, just a thought)

I think the Flash one is an actual Lego minifigure. It looks a lot like the Flash in this set.
