They're genuine. Expect some small parts to be missing and the bricks to sometimes be a little loose. Customs in the UK have taken to seizing and destroying counterfeit Lego so there's that risk if you live in Bongland.

The guy who designed the lego Deathstar was a Chief in the Navy that I worked with. He was a super nerd, a nuke. He started off by submitting his ideas to lego about improvements on existing models for other ships, so they asked him to come up with ideas for the Deathstar.

The only difference between Lepin and Lego is that they don't have LEGO stamped on the studs and I've noticed that heads don't fit on necksas tightly as they should, like they're not loose but if you put a helmet on a dude and take it off the head will come with it
