A key question here is : Which Mega-Block sets does TLG want to copy? Dragons? Command Ops? Disney? Oops, Lego already had a shot with Disney. Then lost it... I've mentioned this before - Mega-Block has some really eye-catching Dragons/Viking/Castle (...) (21 years ago, 9-Dec-03, to lugnet.general)

(...) Actually, it's 9.99 for 10 ornaments - and the Target stores in my area are selling them for less than $7.00 now. I'm tempted to get them, but we're only doing a tiny tree this year, and there'd be no room for them with all of the ornaments we (...) (21 years ago, 13-Dec-03, to lugnet.general, FTX)
