> > For all of you who are speculating about the castle set on ebay, I think I have the answer! I emailed the guy who is auctioning it off and at first he told me that "dalu" is Arabian for "lego"! Since he didn't say anymore, I emailed him again and asked that he check the bricks and let me know if they had lego stamped on them. He wrote back and said they didn't! He said that they didn't have anything on them! Therefore, I think we can safely say that these are not true lego pieces! Dalu is obviously
a clone of some type! I'm just surprised that we haven't heard of it before.
enjoy!
