Here's how it works: Anybody can ask a question The best answers are voted up and rise to the top I'm thinking of building a Star Wars Clone Trooper army and I was wondering what is the cheapest way to do so considering I need a few hundred.
I would say BrickLink... But it depends on how nitpicky you are, and what types of troopers you want. For example, if you're not trying to be ultra-canon with the Star Wars universe, you can just find the cheapest version of the Clone Trooper on BrickLink, and I'm sure you can find a decent price in a large quantity from a store. Other than that, I would suggest Craigslist. Craigslist can be iffy, but if you live in a well populated area, it can be a great resource (provided you are cautious, of course). If you buy from people who are just trying to 'get rid of all this lego' you can usually get things for cheaper. Try not to buy from people who know what they talking about, because they are collectors and are trying to make a high profit. To sum things up, your best bet is BrickLink. If you're not a stickler, I'm sure there are some ways to slightly reduce the cost. Here's a good place to start: 92 New Clone Troopers 3.99 ea Definitely do some poking around, but this is one of the cheapest I could find if you want to buy large quantity of clone troopers.
Obviously items that are 'used' will be cheaper, but the older troopers are more expensive, so the majority of cheap clones will be new. I know this response was a bit rambly, so please let me know if there's anything I can clarify.

LEGO fight Against Chinese counterfeit LEGO prevere said:Blatantly illegal is like saying something is completely destroyed. Just a bit redundant. Sorry, this is the newspaper copy editor coming out in me. It's not redundant because there's the factor of ignorance that needs to be taken into account when it comes to illegal activities. Plenty of people, including some in the Lego community, violate copyright law in regard to intellectual property rights all the time.
However, they don't do so because they're trying to engage in illegal activities but rather because they're ignorant of the law (and in some cases, just not bright enough to understand something as simple as intellectual property rights). People selling custom minifigures are engaging in illegal activities. Companies styling their toys and packaging to resemble Lego products are engaging in blatantly illegal activities. CCC said:^ While lego wouldn't care as much, Marvel might.All this talk of LEGO had me for getting that Marvel still own the characters (plus DC for other side heroes). andhe said: Seems an expensive way to go about it, unless international shipping really is that cheap from China. That seems to be the answer - there's lots of bits and pieces (mostly electronics related) that you can get shipped from Hong Kong/China for not a lot of money on ebay. CCC said:For a collector, maybe. For a parent, a $2 minifig is better value than a $4 one. There should be no reason for fake Simpsons CMFs. Official ones are cheap to buy on eBay if you don't want to buy blind packs.
Yet truly awful quality quality fake CMFs sell for about £5-£10 for a set of six. But is that just people being screwed who don't know any better rather than intentional purchase of perceived to be much cheaper fakes? Xefan said: CCC said:For a collector, maybe. Some are so obviously fake, the descriptions state that they are not Lego, but still people buy. Chrisbstm said:Imagine the fake figures possibly cheaper plastic leaking toxins? . I agree, god forbid that happens and my wee one turns in to the green goblin. When i see what you get for £30 compared to the original its no wonder why some parents choose the fake.http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/LOT-OF-16x-SY-MARVEL-FIGURES-AVENGER-X-MEN-JOKER-ETC-1x-LEGO-HULK-KEYRING-/281510868610?pt=UK_ToysGames_ActionFigures_ActionFigures_JN&hash=item418b5af682 Looks like the Chinese counterfeiters are expanding their range, which is hardly surprising.As someone that buys quite a bit of Lego from eBay, I am concerned by the recent increase in counterfeit Lego being offered on there, mainly as it's clogging up searches as it mentions Lego in the description.
It looks like stormtroopers are next on the counterfeiters' lists.http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/4-X-Star-Wars-Storm-troopers-Clone-Troopers-mini-figures-like-lego-DUE-IN-JAN-/291317759566?pt=UK_Construction_Toys_Kits&hash=item43d3e43e4e CCC said:I think Lego have lost the battle ...Fake S1 Zombie anyone? Where's the pic from? Wondered what the currency was. That's crazy how many fakes/breaches of copyright can be contained within one picture...Fake Hulkbuster, Giant Green Goblins and Hulks to the left. Fake Star Wars behind... CCC said:How would that work? For ebay to protect itself, then they would need all items to be posted to them, unpacked, checked by an expert, repacked, and then posted on. So there would be double postage costs, probably 10 minutes time per item for unpacking, checking and repacking - that's probably another £5 for that service at least. As it currently stands, anyone buying counterfeit Lego can ask for a refund if the item is listed in the Lego category, so on that basis, eBay already guarantee buyers against buying counterfeit goods.
If eBay were made legally responsible, they would be forced to take more action against sellers misusing trademarks and categories for search engine manipulation. Part of the current problem is that sellers are allowed to twist words in their descriptions, which eBay should stamp out. The word Lego should not appear anywhere in a listing, so these listings do not appear in searches for the name. Also, where an item is clearly a licensed theme, sellers should be required to state that it's licensed product, so they will either sell a genuine product, or unequivocally be breaking the law. The way to stop counterfeit products is to hit the sellers in the pocket, so make it as hard as possible for them to pass off goods and easy for buyers to claim refunds for even the smallest infringement. andhe said: CCC said:I think Lego have lost the battle ... You missed the fake Frozen Lego just to the top left of the S1 stack. @Thanos75 was that for a copy of the Lego mould or her own custom made ones, because they are very expensive to cut.
