Is CHINESE LEGO TERRIBLE?!? Mould King McLaren 720S Review

I’m breaking up the review into 3 sections- the ordering/shipping experience, the building experience, and my take on the design. ORDERING / UNBOXING AliExpress- $136 They will remove the original packaging and ship you the part bags instructions in a smaller unmarked brown box to save on shipping. From previous orders- the boxes typically have a foul odor- whcih permeats into the bricks themselves. TaoBao- $83 Shipping ($74) = $157 total With TaoBao, you get the new, original, unopened box for only $20 more it doesn’t smell. Taobao cons: • Is in Chinese- you will need to translate the site to setup an account buy • Don’t know shipping cost, they estimate 85 Yuan ($12) which is wrong • After ordering- you need to keep track of the courier and when it arrives in the warehouse, pay to forward it to US •
