 | | Re: Brick Century Military
|
| (...) From what Ben's Bricks wrote about the cost of custom molds, a Chinese contact seems to be the easier and cheaper route. Isn't Oxford the new Shifty? I don't think the bricks aren't protected by copyright. Didn't the Hong Kong court rule that? (...) (20 years ago, 8-Dec-04, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)

| (...) I wasn't sure if Shifty / Brick / .. became Oxford. I think I have an old post that listed a source for buying new Oxford sets, but they work out the same or higher priced than real Lego. Nice info on Korean Lego schools. The eBay contact I (...) (20 years ago, 8-Dec-04, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)

|
| (...) The infamous Chinese "Bricks" company has made several knock-offs of LEGO sets, and have lost several legal cases, but they also make their own legal military sets, with excellent designs and pretty high quality bricks, matching the MB quality (...)

| (...) Thanks for the clarification--I only have one "Brick" Castle set, and it included clearly pirated as well as clearly original elements. I don't own any "Shifty," but I concur with your assessment. (...) Tyco is of excellent quality, and some (...) (18 years ago, 6-Jul-06, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

| | Powco - a new Chinese clone?
