I also see lots of nice things like this come from clone brands, but then the next line goes in a different (...) (22 years ago, 7-Aug-02, to lugnet.castle)

I bought one of the silver guys and one of the bronze guys (incidently, there were 8 there the day I bought them, (...) (22 years ago, 1-Sep-02, to lugnet.castle)

The heads of these guys are not glued on, they are real snug fitting and due to the bleed of the blackened paint look, some paint may have crept into the joint hole a little. This is common with (...) (22 years ago, 1-Sep-02, to lugnet.castle)

| | | | | Q2 Mega Bloks conference call (Re: DRAGONS ROCKS!!!) —Erik Olson
|
| | | | | Mega Bloks had their 2nd quarter conference call the other day. As I expected, Vic Bertrand said Dragons (and Gyrofighters) were beyond expectations. The new TV ads go on Cartoon Network Aug 18 for 12 weeks. Otherwise the talk was pretty much by (...) (22 years ago, 7-Aug-02, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

| | | | | | I don't see how this can be true... Everyone knows construction brick toys are a dying breed. You can't sell girls construction bricks and regular bricks just do not sell. Is there profit mainly in the Dragons (a toy I will be buying in zero (...) (22 years ago, 7-Aug-02, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

I don't know anything about specific trading figures, but I can say that Dragons have disappeared from the shelves far faster than any other MegaBloks or LEGO product in recent memory--including the 1st round of Star Wars stuff in my area (...)

| | | | | | I totally agree. I got just the one tin myself though. These Dragons are just not very "brick-like." I wanted to like them, but no -- blech! -- Hop-Frog (22 years ago, 10-Aug-02, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

The bricks are okay not LEGO mind you but the prices are so good. Up until yesterday I had (...) (22 years ago, 18-Aug-02, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
