 | | Re: Lego In Chu?
|
| (...) Yep, I've seen those too. The name on the box is rather appropriate: "SHIFTY". The box art is not just like Lego, it *is* the Lego art for those sets: sometimes you can even see the lego logo in the pieces in the picture. I bought one a while (...)

But the best part was they all where $1.00 each. i picked (...) (21 years ago, 29-Apr-03, to lugnet.general)

If you are going to do something shifty, the least you could do is keep it to yourself. Bragging about it is just asking (...)

| | LEGO wins copyright suit in China

I don't know if this is the maker of the "Shifty" clones mentioned on Lugnet a couple of years ago, or another. Full story here: (...) (22 years ago, 12-Feb-03, to lugnet.mediawatch)
