XINH 745,747-749: Booster Gold, Parademon, and Power Girl Minifigs Review

First previewed here!


Just a preview picture.
XINH 745 - Yellow Parademon
XINH 747 - Booster Gold
XINH 748 - Green Parademon
XINH 749 - Power Girl


Here are XINH Power Girl [on the left] and Kopf Power Girl [on the right]. I already reviewed Kopf's Power Girl in the GI Joe set where she came from.

Both are of great quality! For designs, it's up to preference but I think it's obvious how much more detailed the XINH Power Girl is.

UPDATE:
XINH is the New 52 Power Girl while Kopf is classic Power Girl!
Thanks to Enrico and Jpoks for the information!

XINH's leg prints go all the way!

Relatively different back for both of them.

XINH's also has an alternate face! (Minor mark on her mouth though, quality control issue most likely)

Who wins? Well, up to preference but the details available from XINH are much more than Kopf's.

XINH Booster Gold on the left and POGO on the right. First thing you notice is they have different accessories. XINH's has the better one, in my opinion mainly because it's unique. As far as I know that's like his companion/drone/etc or something that I saw in the cartoon a few years back.
The stick he's holding DOES NOT come with the fig, by the way.


I have two problems with this guy though: 1) minifigs can't hold it directly and 2) for some reason, I had a hard time assembling this 3-piece build because the yellow arm piece thing's bar was too short..

Now for printing. I'm sorry for the bad quality of the picture; my LG G3 recently got broken.. :( Although I hope you guys can see that XINH's prints are much more detailed and much sharper than POGO's. The plastic quality is also better for XINH, and even the hair mold looks like "real" blonde versus POGO's yellow.

Side print.


Light printing on dark molds can be very difficult to address, but XINH finds a way and POGO almost gets away with it too..

XINH uses dual molding instead ofsimple painting over as POGO did. Sorry for the poor camera quality..

Do note too that the hair molds, despite being similar from the front, are very different at the back.

Aaaaaand, Booster Gold by XINH has an alternate face.

I love to say it's all about preference, but it seems like there's a clear winner for this one.. Only reason to get POGO , I think, is if you want his flat 1x1 stud.. (Maybe the hair piece too for MOCs)

Parademons time. I feel like these guys are such good deals, as in, the value-for-money of them is great. They come with a stud shooter gun, that cube thing that'll probably mean something in the movie, and even the attachment thing for the wings. All this knowing that this is a guy people will army-build with. Good job, XINH!
Also, the tile printing on the cube thing is superb!


One stud shooter each for the parademons,


Onto quality; no concerns at all. Both are greatly detailed and plastic quality is great as well. No issues! Great job again, XINH.

Not much going on at the sides.

How the back looks like. Yes, the wings are paper-like.

That's how you "stick" the "paper" onto the minifig.
I have mixed feelings about paper wings, but I guess if they used real molds for wings, they'd end up being too bulky which is why it's paper.. It's not regular paper though, so no worries about durability [in terms of regular paper] and print quality.


Back view. Still a great amount of detail for both of them.

TL;DR - These figs are great.

I'm really just waiting for decent army-buildable figs [from good brands like XINH] for Marvel.. I'll rush to AngeloMarcus Greenhills and get a lot, maybe [good quality] SHIELD Agents or Hydra Agents would be great.. Or maybe in the future, Kree and Skrull soldiers!
But for DC fans, well these are great army-builder figs! I'm guessing AngeloMarcus Greenhills stocked up on these two, but still try and go early to avoid running out.. Hehe

    1. Also, the round "L" plate that the other one is holding is meant to be a Legion Flight Ring from Legion of Superheroes.
