(...) Except these are genuine bricks with the LEGO logo on them. So the "like Lego" or "not Lego" doesn't apply. I've seen bricks like these before, they're strange beasts... They don't fit with either Lego or Duplo bricks, but they're definitely (...) (25 years ago, 7-Feb-00, to lugnet.general)

(...) OK, here's a question, then... what are the restrictions on stuff that TLG gave you? He's hawking stuff that only employees had original access to. Did TLG TOE restrict what you could do with stuff that they gave you? I assume you'd have a (...) (25 years ago, 7-Feb-00, to lugnet.general)

Wayne, (...) (URL) you see any place in this page regarding using the LEGO official logo in someone's own, let me know. You are NOT supposed to use their red signature Logo, period. (...) That's true, but it goes back to consumer awareness. Some (...) (25 years ago, 7-Feb-00, to lugnet.general)
