Do you know there is one good thing about all of this? Mega Bloks is a Canadian
company :D. I saw their products, they do stink, they are 'juniorized' but damn,
they do appeal more to kids. When I saw the Dragons sets from Mega Bloks on
display, I wanted to get thise set so badly but I know closer look reveals large
pieces and poor quality.
I don't know what Lego should do. They should have listened earlier to the Lego
community. I'm glad this is happening because it wakes them up.

However, like so many other American and Canadian owned companies the product is
MADE IN CHINA.

DOH!!!! Why does everything have to be made in China. Wait a minute, I know for
sure I have bought a Lego set and it said assembled in China, pieces made in
Switzerland (yes, it was a real Lego set). I'll try to find the box and tell you
which set it was.

(...) You got a LEGO said that was already ASSEMBLED? Boy, that must have been a set from 1998 or 1999, at the hight of Juniorization; a one-piece LEGO set. /\/\ark "sorry, couldn't resist" de Kock (20 years ago, 18-Mar-04, to lugnet.general)
