Behind the Scenes: The Story of the Nifeliz M4A3E8 Sherman Tank
What does it take to turn 860 plastic bricks into a tribute to history? For designer Joe Dunn, it started with a stubborn belief that even a tank model should feel alive. Chapter 1:

I’m almost done building this set and I’m pretty happy with it so far. Although in some instances you can kinda tell its not Lego, some connections are a bit stiff, some a bit loose (by tiny non significant amounts), it’s still a pretty sweet set. Maybe each tiny piece isn’t perfectly cut or molded at the factory or something. But it’s definitely worth it. I’d buy more of these sets over the crazy priced Lego sets. I always valued Lego at 10$ per 100 pieces but they charging 400$ for a set with 2500 pieces that’s crazy, and here you can buy a set with 3200 pieces for less than 200$. That’s great value. I’m definitely enjoying the build. Good details and alot of fun
I used to buy only LEGO sets, but their prices are getting too high. When I heard Nifeliz was releasing a 1:8 scale Mustang as an homage to Ken Block, I decided to give it a try. The packaging is impressive, with numbered part bags and a high-quality manual. The set includes both regular stickers and transfer decals. All parts fit well and the build was challenging but enjoyable. The instructions encourage creativity, making the process more engaging. The finished model is impressive and has received many compliments, all at a fraction of the cost of LEGO. Adding motors would require significant modifications due to the model’s size and weight. The”HOONIKEN”? Perfect!
I have build a lot of LEGO brand as well as a few from Nifeliz. Both are great quality. Nifeliz is definitely a better deal for the money. Build was challenging but final product is awesome. No missing pieces and bags are not only numbered 1-6 but also have small numbers that tell you which steps you need to open them on. Highly recommend this set as well as Nifeliz in general.

What if a camera could capture no photos but still freeze time? For designer Harold Dylan, the answer lay in 680 plastic bricks and a folding mechanism that whispers of forgotten darkrooms. Chapter 1:
“1006 pieces. 3 battle-ready configurations. 1 slope that defied physics. Behind NIFELIZ’s Panzer IV G lies a secret: its armor doesn’t just sit—it transforms. And it all started with a designer who hated ‘finished’ models.”
