TLC keeps their vault for their lawyers. So when, for example, MegaBloks
produces a set that's tooo similiar to any LEGO set they walk into their
catacombs, take the respective set and show the world: We have done this first!
On this occasion they may be forced to open a sealed box in order to show the
contents, so this is why they keep several copies of each set for future
reference.
