I betcha that isn't LEGO.  If it is, it should say "LEGO" inside the
hole in the stud, and/or have numbers printed somewhere inside it.
Look closely.

I wondered the same thing myself.  There is a number "2" on the inside of
the inverse slope.  2 indications, or questions are:
1:  The texture of the slope is the same as regular slopes.
2:  the top edge of the slope (stud side) is slightly thinner than the
   regular slope I have next to it.

If nothing else, I would like to determine who actually made it.

It may be Tyco. I know they have a slope which is 1x2, just sloped. Another
possibility is Coko. Does it appear to be the same ABS as LEGO or is it more
like the plastic in model cars?

(...) I had some of the old Tyco bricks, and checked it against them, to no avail. Coko I have never heard of. It is the same ABS as lego bricks though. Rodney Gentry Woodchuck County Fire and Rescue (URL) (22 years ago, 19-Jan-02, to lugnet.build)
