Check out everyone's favorite "Defender of the Universe." This old school labor of love by P Stanley brings a tear to my eye. The designs are so true to the actual toys. Throw in a Robeast to battle and the adventures are endless. (URL) (18 years ago, 7-Jul-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

Okay guys, I've got an alert for you all. I NEED you all to fill out MOC cards for items you're bringing. It looks like we may be forced to turn away unregistered items, and I really don't want to do that. In addition, the only way we can get more (...)

(...) Yes sadly the Dragons and Pyrates Mega Bloks lines are some of the worst quality they have done. Its not because of the juniorizedness of the sets either.

(...) The Lego Exo-force sets (also some of the creator sets like the T-rex) use joints that are sort of quite obviously very similar/copied from the the Blok Bots sets which the Gundam sets appear to use. -Mike Petrucelli (18 years ago, 25-Jun-06, to lugnet.build.mecha)
