Dollar Store G.I.Joe Brick sets are terrible
 

Quick PSA.

They're cheap, around 4.50 a set found at the dollar store. They are Hasbro licensed so i thought it would be around Kreo quality. I should've known when there's literally no info on the make on the boxes.

All of them are terrible, they're "brick compatible" and are "BestLock" branded. Super think plastic for the mini figures, mold flash everywhere and they don't hold together.

Best look up Youtube reviews if you're really considering them, but for me, I could've picked anything else for 15 bucks rather than these 3 sets.

They look kinda cool for what they are...

If you want to buy them for MIB display, then maybe.
There's a whole line of them. Here's the photos. Again, I'd highly do not recommend them.

What are the minifigs like? Do they compare well (size/construction/style) to a lego minifig? Is the plastic quality any different?

Hope they're not like the other off brand lego products they sell, which are super small compared to the standard lego parts sizes.

Looks like a cool assortment if they were decent enough to hold together. Ive only seen those first 3 here..

Glue will help

When in doubt, just craggle it.

Very thin plastic, imagine dollar store KO TFs. Flash and mold lines visible. The print's fine. I found that if you swap around the pieces, you could find certain pieces will hold together much better than others, so conceivably you could get a somewhat stable build.

They also have pieces you won't find in Lego, so you won't be able to build a 1:1 with official Lego pieces but you can get somewhat close. Sizing is 1:1 to Lego/Lego-compatible.

Some people do use super glue to hold them together. You might need to wash the pieces with dish soap to get rid of plastic separator from the molding process for a better bond.

Lastly, the Fang is the only one where the mini fig can sit in it. The Stormshadow and Snake eyes will not sit in the vehicles.
