I recently found a Lego-clone (not a very good one) at a discount store. The pieces include bricks, 1/2-height plates, and a few wheels and medium-slope roof pieces, in about 10 different colors.

Josh, While I build mainly in the Town System, I have to agree with you on one thing. That is some of the new colors are nicely muted. I especially like the tan color. It is a much more sympathetic color to build in than the bright ones. Gary Istok (...) (25 years ago, 29-Jul-99, to lugnet.dear-lego)
