Lego is about to lose its monopoly in Germany.  They have lost their suit to
keep out Best-Lock and lost the law protecting the sanctity of The Brick.  Mega
Bloks are poised to go into the German market and are projected to rapidly take
20% market share.

(...) MB issued a press release about this as well: (URL) a relatively slow loading PDF. Unfortunately I could not just grab the text but the gist is they are happy and they think they are going to do well.
