Oh man!!

I realize that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, but this is
ridiculous!!  That Dalu is such a blatant rip-off of LEGO® (check out their
logo!!) that it appears as if it were a spoof!  I can't believe that there are
people in this world who would have invested so much time and money into such an
obviously immoral endeavor.  Simply amazing.

Stunned,
John

  Hi LEGO fans,
  I seek pictures of the LEGO imitation brand, "DALU" which was sold in the
late 80's.  I am also interested in any information you might have about
this company.  I know there was an auction last year for a DALU castle set,
but I no longer have the picture from that auction.  If anyone has that
picture or others, plese email it to me.  Thanks very much for your help!

(...) I agree with you, although to Dalu's credit, they did give the warriors gloves. James "Who thinks that the new pan-helm castle figs would be perfect with dark gray gloves" Simpson (24 years ago, 3-Oct-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, lugnet.castle)
