While looking on ebay today, I saw several Lego sets, that upon closer inspection it is actually from a Chinese company. Here is are some sample links: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=19011&item=5939565073&rd=1&tc=photo or http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=5939494621&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT I am intrigued by these sets since they look exactly like official Lego sets but they have no mention of "Lego" on the box so I am sure they are probably the equivalent to pirated/bootlegged movies. And if they are, are these old sets being sold in Chinese stores today? Any one else see these or any one have additional info?

(...) "Enlighten" brand... I think thats the same brand name that TLC just crushed a bunch of in Finland (on the way to Russia). Looks a bit like someone took a real LEGO box, scanned the artwork, changed the company logo and put a new number on it. (...) (20 years ago, 2-Dec-04, to lugnet.general)
