We've been tooling around with this kind of thing (...) (24 years ago, 24-Aug-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)

I would say that if they want to end KNEX, all they have to do is bring out KNEX Jr. and let the market kill it for them.

The story I heared is the following: Lego lost market volume by Knex, so they decided to bring out a comparable line, which was the cheap SNAP crap... (My personal opinion on SNAP is, (...)
