   (...) Wow. That's really inexcusable. Sad. :^( ~Grand Admiral Muffin Head -- Mark's LEGO(R) Creations (URL) (22 years ago, 25-Mar-02, to lugnet.loc.uk, lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, lugnet.dear-lego)

     (...) Is this material scan-able (in terms of copyright)? I'd love to see the picture, since the official MB model includes some obviously non-LEGO elements.

   (...) Whoa! You're kidding, right? (...) Scary...let's just hope Lego doesn't do this again... ;^( (...) Who knows?! I certainly hope this was a mistake, although the chances of mega-blocks getting into the Lego UK magazine are slim on their own. (...)

      [snip] (...) Well everything I have read on Lugnet about TLC, seems to indicate that they operate in a bubble. They do not recognize the fact that Mega Bloks is a serious competitor. I would not be surprised if the Lego upper management does not (...) (22 years ago, 26-Mar-02, to lugnet.loc.uk, lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, lugnet.dear-lego)
    
         Re: Are you going to tell them or am I? —Jason J. Railton
     (...) That's shocking. I'm speculating now, but I wonder how many pictures of kids with genuine LEGO COTS models actually get sent in to the magazine and get filtered out? I mean, would you think of sending in a picture of a known set? Probably not. (...) (22 years ago, 26-Mar-02, to lugnet.loc.uk, lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, lugnet.dear-lego)

     (...) Yep: Number 1, 1999: Chen Jia En (Hong Kong)has a model remarkably like the small exploriens base [a couple of VERY minor differences] Couldn't find last December, so that's probably the one you're thinking of...though almost every magazine (...)

     (...) Indeed. The current issue has one kid displaying a collection of made up sets (including a Galaxy Explorer)... can't remember the name, but from the UK I think. Cheers Richie Dulin (22 years ago, 27-Mar-02, to lugnet.loc.uk, lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.loc.au)
