Wow, those are cool. They look like the quality is high enough to be authentic. If I ever get the money, I'll definitely be paying them a visit.

And only then, just for the Decepticon cape :wink:

Those look really nice. However, I kind of recognise some of those designs...
I really wonder whose template they're using. I have to say, though, the oriental and Ninja designs are really cool looking. I certainly would have never thought of doing them.

WOW! I had never heard of Findmybrick.com. Looks like some good prices, a lot cheaper than bricklink. The capes are amazing. Thanks for sharing ;)

I dunno... This http://www.findmybrick.com/image/flags/fv1.jpg flag looks an awful lot like mine. A couple others do, too.
I'm still not seeing where they gave credit to anybody.

That trenchcoat design is Ramus'. Template on MCN here.

That... did look suspiciuosly Mikal's. Certain emblems' placement and spacing in cape is almost identical to Mikal's template in his BL folder.

Another sign:
I wont know if you guys ever notice this, Mikal did the black falcon emblem's in a some what oval shape instead of the perfect round for the eye of the bird. In the official print it should be perfect round. These capes' BF emblem shows oval eyes.

Hmm.. for some weird reason some of the emblems are reverse horizontally...

Such price, anyway if any of you are desperate enough i offer better rate than this :twisted:

And I would rather buy from one of our own, then from someone who sells other people's work without permission or credit.

Wow, you've got a close attention to detail. I'd never noticed that the official eyes were rounder than mine... Odd that mine're oval, since that design was scanned in off a shield, then heavily cleaned up.

I'm strongly considering emailing Bricklink asking what we should do about him not giving credit to Sava, Ramus, and myself. Then maybe I'll buy something from him (I really like the coats).
