| | | (...) What a load of rubbish the K'nex product is. It looks like trash. This must be their answear to the successful Star Wars line. Lego should retaliate with a Robotech/Macross line. I'd love a Lego Destroid Monster or a YF-19. The worst thing (...) (23 years ago, 1-Aug-01, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, lugnet.lego.direct)

It's not such a bad idea, I bet the Star Wars licenced sets sold a lot more than the (...) (23 years ago, 2-Aug-01, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

If we take that reasoning to extreme, then we should hate LEGO for making any sets which build models at all. I've got (...)
