Updated Lego Collection:

I also have 3 Alt Brick sets (Chinese first copy of Lego) that I'm yet to build :fear1:

Just found out that Amazon also sells knockoffs (Toynagar). Could see differences in brick build and decal quality. Whatever is manufactured in China, they steal the tech/patent and build bootleg factories. China is copycat king.  

 

I can see why Japan does not outsource to China (i.e Gunpla).

Can you share photos of the finished model? I like to see the side by side differences from the knockoff. 

Mine will take some time until it is fully built.

 

But you can see this video, covers it well.

 

 

Honestly the cheap one is almost 80% of original, chinese killing it!

The Mercedes I posted is an original Lego. 

 

I have a McLaren knockoff that I'm yet to build, will post that in a few weeks.

If those 18+ Lego technic kits weren't so expensive ($200+), I would have tried it out. I like the Ferrari, Bugatti and Millennium Falcon but prices are $450-$1000:ko:

Hamley's was running a sale around Christmas, I got the Mercedes one at 30% off. You can try online for a higher discount as well.

It's finally ready, need to figure out a way to hang this on the wall now. I am planning to go for a custom wall hang like seen on Instagram.

 

The length of the lego compared to a 14" laptop.

Sitting pretty at the table for now, till I get the wall hang.

Look very good.  Seems that you need to buy furniture or hang them like below to display them properly.
