What's the consensus on pic rel? I can't really find much about the brand. The picture seems lovely. There are literally a few reviews on Amazon, but they're positive.

It arrived. I'm done with the first set of bags. First impressions:
1. Has this distinct "cheap plastic" smell.
2. Like 50 stickers or something. Interestingly, stickers seem to be the exact size of the brick, while Lego's stickers are a bit smaller. I wonder why, because at first glance I prefer these bigger stickers.
3. The mold quality isn't the highest. Lego bricks "click", while here you need to use a lot of force to push them into place, and even then, it feels awkward.
4. There is visible discoloration on some bricks, for example some grey bricks have a poop-ish tint.
5. The instruction so far is very clear, although the color of the brick in the instruction doesn't really match IRL color, which made me use incorrect bricks, which made me believe that the set was missing bricks.
6. The design seems to be good, so far this could be a copy of an official Lego set and I wouldn't notice.
I'll keep you updated (unless the thread gets deleted). I'm hopeful that this turns out to be valid cheaper alternative. This is my second non-Lego set. The first one was Cada Ferrari, which I sadly cannot recommend.
